BG had an ear thing, but don't think anyone else sounded too rough.
I had a cold the previous week, but doubt I'd have been infectious by Sunday.

The cold I had is definitely doing the rounds though, it's wiped out a few people I know.
Yes, unlikely. Mine, is definitely viral though as no snot involved. Let's blame the Marshall's...
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

Did anyone else read "streaming like Spotify" in a thick Dutch accent?

You were missed.
Did you make it to band practice?
I didn’t even make it out of my pyjamas.

Wishing you increased wellness; really soon.
Anthony says you're back surfing? This is good news. :D
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.
