What will it be?

It's not about price, just variety or things I need that they don't seem to have else where here (garden, DIY, house stuff) Alternatively independent shops selling such even more welcome!
Anyone got any experience of #fairphone? Have one? Heard anything about them? Their overall ethics? I like the look of them and their ethos, but also want a fast phone with good camera.
The wonderful community engaged Make Town on Morning Lane, E9 has had their rent doubled and struggling to stay in business. It would leave that recently developed stretch with yet more empty buildings.

There’s more to a 4-day week than you might think.
#4DayWeek
ALT The 4-day week iceberg. Above the water: Woo an extra day off! Below the water:
Reduces carbon emissions
Encourages use of local
Services
Helps businesses retain staff
Cuts childcare costs
Fewer sickness and stress absences
Narrows the gender pay gap
Promotes healthy relationships
Sometimes it might all feel too much because it really is! You can't do or want it all. You are one person with limited time each day, with limited abilities and strengths, and limited space (physical and mental).
What can you cut out or quit? How can you bring in help and support so you don't have to carry it all? What can you say no to, to stop the build up? How can you reduce your own expectations to take the pressure off? Where can you make more space for yourself?
So gutted and jealous not to be running nor watching London marathon tomorrow! Good luck and enjoy to all taking part, especially the mighty @vphthac gang. What a day in London it will be 🏃🏽♂️ 🏃🏼♀️ 🏃🏃🏻♀️ 🏃🏾♂️ 🏃🏼🏃🏿♀️
