Read the linked article. Status lost. Misery ended. A fair trade off.

I’ll take the loss of status if it puts me out of my misery.

For a very long time (until my mid 30s at least) I thought Lady in Red was addressed to Chris de Burgh’s wife as she lay dead, in her open coffin.

Anthony Browne’s books are wonderful (particularly Gorilla, and Me and You). The Giant Jam Sandwich is one of the few books from my o childhood that my children really loved.

Whoever put I and O next to each other on the keyboard needs to have a good long think about what they’ve done. And then they need to apologise.

Could not resist the burnt orange hair. Perfect for my (currently hypothetical) autumn-themed room. Going to take it with me to look at paint samples.

Ah that's so cool! I don't know why it is, but it really is!

Is Maggie the baby who owned the nappy that muted the strings which created the bass sound of Don't Give Up?

I loved this line.

The song ‘It’s Time’ Johnny greets with a sardonic intro; “Next up, and nobody wants to hear this phrase - ‘this is a new one’”.

He said this almost word for word at Forever Now festival in Milton Keynes, and then played . . . This Charming Man.

No coincidence that the world started to go off the rails in 2016, the year that Boyzlife were incorporated.
