my mum once sent me a postcard to ask if I'd seen the WhatsApp message she'd sent. That I had answered.

Also - I love how specific she was with date *and* time 😂

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469.

Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by.

It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.

A lovely visit to Charles Topper - shampoo, friction massage, the lot. Ramsay & I came out looking very smart. Not a curl left. To Carnaby Street, and Ramsay came out wearing a cape, lined with red "silk". They play "pop music" in these shops, and all packed with people.

Tom and I (and many others) got totally fucked by the same publisher.

I have 88k followers here, and if every one of you bought a book, those royalties would pretty much add up to what they owe me.

Related great news: my books & cards will be back in UK & EU stores next month.
