I had to go back to London for a funeral recently - after being away for a few years it's a pertinent reminder of how far we have fallen. Monitored, tracked, and charged everywhere I went - it felt like an open-air techno prison - replete with an oppressive powder keg atmosphere. Not pretending that things have ever been perfect - but it was certainly a shock to the system!

I feel the same when I return to Dublin. Would that I were born a few decades earlier so I could have enjoyed civilization for a little longer.
