Very pissed off to see dog-whistley TERFy propaganda littering our idyllic lido.
If you're leaving your rubbish, know that I'll make it my personal mission to remove every bit I find.
People want to swim in peace, to forget about all the shit outside the gates. Take your bitterness somewhere else.

I like to maintain a nemesis in all important areas of my life. To be honest, one of them is probably you.

I have probably seen Reservoir Dogs more than any other film, but never quite like this. (It was Zapruder's first birthday yesterday, so she thinks she's ready for grown up films now)

Was just telling my 4-year old the plot of Amadeus and his only question at the end of it was 'Are there any werewolves?', which I think we can all agree is a sensible line of enquiry

On Long Lost Family Davina has just told a lady that there's a second secret sister looking for the same dad, and she did not precede it with 'Fancy another one?' and I'm going to have to call the police.

This season's heatwave essential: an absolutely massive, ridiculously colourful tote bag. Pack your picnics, blankets, books and towels and look incredible while you do so. It even has a pocket!

Ended up watching The Prodigy because I couldn't be fucked finding the TV switch, and I've actually enjoyed their set very much (while doing my needlepoint cat tapestry, because I'm well rock and roll)

Maybe it's finally not being exhausted all the time, but watching Glastonbury this year is the first since having a baby that I'm really, really gutted to not be there. And that baby (now an 8-year old) is asking if we can go next year and I'm thinking 'imagine if we did...'

Having a mini weepy breakdown thinking about how Chic at Glastonbury 2013 was one of the maddest, best nights of my life. I was about to get married, head over heels in love! I'd just been released from the onsite medical tent! I was so, insanely happy. And now... Life has gone very not-as-planned.
