i'm not a hypochondriac but...

Visible to anyone in the world

I seem to have a cold: I have a racking cough, a sore frame and I feel awful. Tragic timing, about fifty yards down the road from me people are falling by the wayside.

People are eyeing me oddly, until I explain the way that legionella works. Once they know that they can't catch it from me the couldn't give a damn.

It would be ironic if I've contracted the beast—the boys who are now doing the testing and I have shared many a conversation about the piss-poor processes that are in place. The testing is done, we see the issues, but there's never any cash to rectify the problem.

Whatever petrie-dish in-the-sky has been spewing the blight I'll bet that their records are impeccable. In every sense other than it was safe.

It's all very well to make a measurement, the point is to act on them.
