My son’s gf’s list for the #duvetknowitschristmas arrangements. 10 adults, including 2 sets of divorced parents. Last line makes me howl. I have the best deal.

Thanks Spotify, for confirming that I’m ’down with the (cool) kids’. Or something.
BlueSkyers, before you start, I do buy music, and go to gigs, and buy merch (so much merch!) too, it doesn’t harm to boost your favourites’ numbers here in addition

This, so much this.
With apologies to the (very indulgent) podiatrist, and to the physiotherapist I’ve visited recently
Miya Wilkes, 29, called an ambulance after suffering a fall at home. When paramedic Avery Mann, 39, arrived on the scene and asked her to describe where it hurt, Wilkes gave a heavy sigh before listing off every source of physical, emotional and psychic pain in her life to date.

1st pic was featured in the Newcastle Evening Chronicle reporting on the (January 1964?) sales

Mam asked for a copy as she thought she looked glamorous in her fur collared coat

I seem to be expressing exactly how I feel about shopping, even to this day

I could be cheerful in other circumstances

62 is great, if any of you need to know that

Have they made Spotify sound even worse, in anticipation of it sounding better?

My son ran a marathon, BACKWARDS, raised awareness and £4200 for Autism East Midlands, and I’m so proud that I want to shout it from the rooftops. But I’ll post on here instead

I asked Helena Bonham-Carter, at a bus stop, if she was waiting for a bus

what's the most random interaction you've ever had with a celebrity?

The handshake seals the contract
From the contract there's no turning back
The turning point of a career
In [Venezia] being insincere
The holiday was fun-packed
The contract, still intact

The grabbing hands grab all they can
All for themselves - after all

A quick collage of just some of the birds that Merlin claims to have heard from my garden today. I think it’s having a giraffe, just as likely to see one of those than some of these! Most of them are right though but, and I also saw Red Kites and a Sparrowhawk which it missed.

Old bands releasing new music for the first time in many years that sounds like they’ve asked AI to make music that sounds like them, but new. Telling us that the new album was made in 3 weeks does not convince me otherwise

Fuck that horrible song and everyone who loves
it
Fuck your favourite song. Tell me your least favourite song. The one that makes you die inside the moment you hear the first 3 seconds.
