I’ve lost this, I must be a terrible person. We feel it ourselves and focus on it. We applaud those who say they hurt, ‘oh you’re so brave!’ ‘Well done for acknowledging you’re not OK’.

He swore quite loudly, and I wondered what the need could have been to justify that language. I should add at this point that it was approximately 6am and dark.
