Birthmark like a tortilla. Handwriting like a serial killer. Still a good egg…one of the best actually. Tells it like it is…you just need to listen.

30 Jan 72 I went to bed at 10.30 or thereabouts simply not being able to keep awake...I awoke slightly in the middle of the night to find E snoring gently...and tipped her chin to stop her. She stopped.

@Balconyshirts.co.uk Can you get the “Middle class woman of a certain age” sweatshirts on the go. I’d wear one 😀. With pride
The only impression I can do is Gregg Wallace saying “Now that is a lovely plate of food” and now even that has been taken away from me.

That it should have taken this long is ridiculous, but none the less, thank god!
Heidi Alexander’s appointment as transport secretary means the cabinet is now 100% state-educated for the first time in history - great stat from @georgeeaton.bsky.social

Discovered yesterday that an appointment with my gynaecologist is the same price as an initial consultation with a vet. Not sure what to do with this info but it feels significant 🧐😂

My daughter’s school only running one A level English class next year. Unthinkable in my day. Agree with everything said here. Wonder whether a broader view of what constitutes great literature is required.
A lot of discussion lately about the reasons for the decline of Eng Lit A-level.
Are the Gove curriculum & exam reforms to blame?
I don't think so, because the decline of Eng Lit / the humanities more broadly is a global trend.

The fall of Eng Lit
What is the cause, is it a problem - and if so, what can we do about it?

So….if you don’t like something, be it cricket, broccoli, tofu, Taylor Swift, Shakespeare, Top Gear etc, it’s not shit and boring. It’s just not your thing, you don’t get it. That’s fine. We’re all different. Takes all sorts.
