Writer, reader and history nerd. Anne Boleyn fangirl. Loves cheese and coffee and music. Keeps chickens and secrets, is generally harmless and avoids arguments. Not good in the morning. #totp #books

Sunday afternoon, post-holiday, post-weekend, post-Christmas, January inspired "What am I going to do with my life this year" feeling right now. I hope it involves travel, nice people and cheese.

There can't be many places where you can find out about Nik Kershaw, nuthatches and Cradle of Filth at the same time. #Ipswich #cityofculture

I wrote this before the Oxford study about GLP-1 meds that’s been in the media this week. My opinion hasn’t changed.

My abiding memory of Madonna's 'Vogue' is attempting to learn all the choreography for a Dancercise fitness class, and either being able to get the arms co-ordinated or the legs and feet, but never both at the same time... #totp

Tonight's retro #totp fest has been singularly uninspiring. Was 1998 really this dull? I'm sure I bought loads of albums that year.

Beginning to question my decision to watch more #TOTP 1998 - Oh Mama it's terrible. Some of these tunes are that bad I forgot them halfway through listening to them.

Is it almost time for the Mute Cliff button? #TOTP. I've listened to some dodgy tunes tonight, mostly from 1998, but I can't lsten to *that*

I think 1988 must have been a good year for gingers. Eddi Reader, Tiffany, Belinda Carlisle, Rick Astley, the reds were coming out of the closet! I asked my hairdresser at the time to dye my hair the same colour as Belinda Carlisle. There's no remaining evidence of that. Good. #TOTP

Best not-quite-Christmas number one EVER. One of my favourite PSB tracks. Definitely better than the original...

Let's all hear it for 1988 #TOTP - S-Express and no Cher! My teenage sneaking into Hollywood's nightclub and drinking Malibu & lemonades like I was sophisti-ma-cated period....

OK, #TOTP has redeemed itself with Faithless. Although this one's not my favourite. It's still better than Boyzone by a very long mile.

Ally McBeal! Who'da thunk I'd have ended up writing about her in my dissertation about Anne Boleyn and 20th/21st century feminist cliches in 2021? #TOTP

Can I manage another 1998 #TOTP? It's started with Boyzone, I think it's time for a comfort break. Mostly for my eardrums. I can feel my glucose levels spiking at this one.
