Squatters

Yesterday was an absolutely ba-yoootiful day. There was not a cloud in the sky and it must have been at least 26'C. I whipped on the most summery outfit I had and literally skipped up the street. And then it descended. Hundreds and thousands of cubic meters of of pollen invisibly yet insidiously crept up my nose and into my throat and set up camp. I suffer from hayfever but this was a whole new level. Within minutes my eyes had become slits and the back of my throat was sore from sneezing.

Apparently hayfever sufferers have a particularly hard time in London because they have to deal with a combination of pollen and the city pollution.

Bring on the non-drowsy anti-hestamines.
