I hope this means an end to animal testing and a halt to the breeding of c2000 beagles a year in Cambridgeshire purely for the purpose of experimentation. Horrendously cruel.

Lovely thread from Louis.
Damn. I was really hoping I'd get to send THAT birthday card to Stanley Baxter. I wish I'd seen him in panto - common consent has it that he was the best dame of all, and it's easy to believe. However, I did get to meet him a few times, and I interviewed him at home for one of my books.

This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...
Carrie Fisher was the blueprint.
Protect your people. Call out the predators.

Have wept copiously for Mani, & for the whole tragic situation of his two little boys, now orphans, but hadn’t posted on here yet. The Stone Roses run through me in my psyche & in my blood & any decent painting I’ve made was painted to the Stone Roses. Those songs lend themselves to creative arcs.

When the UK is making plans for a fast-track service to end a person's life, while at the same time cancer treatments are delayed (only 67.9% of patients start their first treatment within 62 days of an urgent referral) - maybe it's time to re-evaluate our priorities?

"Many people arrested after January 6 said the only reason they rioted was because of what Trump said," says Lewis Goodall.

“Yet, if you listen to all of this, the conclusion is that the sin of that day is a 10 second edit on a BBC programme"
