Had to cancel my trip to Hong Kong and Taiwan. But hope I can reschedule once I'm better.

Mostly I'm stuck sitting here. But it's comfortable.

I know it's just sugar, with artificial flavours, rolled out, but it's lovely, and special... And I need the calories.

It's an issue I've been dealing with for a while. And is clearly related to my "big health problem" I'm now nearly 3 years into. https://t.co/W8c81Edo6g I'm seeing two different doctors on Monday to try and solve it. Wish me luck!

Two years ago today, I went to hospital with a burst stomach ulcer. It turned out to be stomach cancer.

As an aside, I know I worried people with my current health situation. Basically, I can't do anything physical without almost collapsing from breathlessness. (Including, it turns out, giving a conference talk) I very much appreciate the concern people showed.

I would love to talk more about what we did at MoJ. Especially how we were using technology to improve safety and decency in prisoner transport. Unfortunately my talk today didn't have enough time. But I'm happy to discuss the detail with anyone interested.

I’d also like to clarify that the project discussed was focused on improving the transportation system and that moral, ethical & human impacts of were the key focus. I’m still sorry though. My fault.
