The exercise:

Write four lines of prose about: count 'em all.

Still not official. But so, so close. Right? Right...

The BBC decided to call it for Biden yesterday afternoon (GMT) which is a good sign for me. Obviously it's not over until all the votes are counted and any recounts are done, but it is nice to have some hope. Worth noting: Trump will lose to Biden, if the current figures are right, by slightly more than he beat Hillary Clinton. So, based on what he said in 2016, he's lost by a landslide :)

Count 'em all
"You've got insomnia, 'ey lad?"
"Yes guv, you specifically asked for it in the job advert."
"That I did lad, that I did. Right, there's a whole bunch of sheep out in those fields and someone -- you -- needs to count 'em all without falling asleep on the job."

Greg - well, two weeks later and it's been called left, right, and center and he still hasn't conceded. Can't say I'm surprised, but at least part of me thought he didn't really want to keep the job.

That's certainly an interesting way to find the right candidate for the job. I wonder if the new employee regrets getting the job?
