I’m gonna keep sharing these ovarian cancer symptoms whenever I see them.
I will add - from personal experience - diarrhoea and fatigue.

OK, this is a test to see if the internet can help my mum. Can you identify a comic rhyming monologue my mum performed at school in the 1960s? She has been blurting out lines at random as long as I've been alive, but can't remember who wrote it, and internet searches bring nothing up. Ahem:

Are fridges woke now?
Regret to report that there is now a second, woke, version of Corned Beef of My Childhood doing the rounds. The corned beef is now cheese, and there’s a whole section about corporal punishment and eating disorders missing, but it’s still the worst poem in the world. #FacebookNews

At Charlie Kirk's posthumous Medal of Freedom ceremony yesterday (dead podcaster wins prize) Trump gave a long speech....which of these things do you think I made up?

Dreamt that I was lost in the small Yorkshire village of Appleton Roebuck, trying to get to a house before the taxi I'd booked got there. I saw two wolves, then two lions, and had to ride my horse across the tables in a pub garden.
