I read a news story that pharmacies had problems with people turning up who had been able to book but were no longer entitled. I hope you get it. It is a very restricted list. :(

Whoever is doing PR for 'Autumn' this year deserves a payrise. I've been through turmoil attempting to resist the cosy toadstool/ pumpkin aesthetic and was lucky to leave the high street without themed linen.

Hello! I came looking for a thread on Boris Mounjaro because I saw this pic from Carrie. I cannot stand him but he is a lot slimmer.

I haven't enjoyed anything so much as #Shucked at the #regentsparkoutdoortheatre and particularly the face of the prep school teachers who had taken their boys only to find the age 7 advisory allowed a lot of leeway on Willy and dick jokes. He carried on with aplomb and my thoughts are with him.

If you get zoomed in you will see Keri the writer, Ruth and Ben Archer and the fantastic foley artist . I so very nearly took a selfie with the surprise guest but suddenly became very bashful #TheArchers

Teaching can very much be a thankless task - until this week when the year 13s leave and occasionally you get some affirmation. I know some teachers bask in it year round but for lesser mortals it can be the moment where you realise you made a difference to this particular young human. EMOSH

His name was also on the property - perhaps he inherited from his father? Or it was to avoid inheritance tax?

This Katy Kopycat doll looked absolutely amazing to me. She actually wrote what you wrote! Rightly identified by my mum as a 5 minute wonder, I obsessed about it for 3 years and never got her.

Dawn at the caravan park overlooking the Tay. There is nothing so good as visiting family but going back to your own van at night

A great year of reading. Apart from 'A Little Life'. Who chooses that for a book club?

It was too good a deal but the National Theatre have abolished their best value Advance Membership which gave access to cheaper tickets for a while before they opened to the public. Much the same deal but with...gasp...an enewsletter for £84. I do get a year cheaper #NationalTheatre #LondonTheatre l

Doing a few lessons around their ideal school and schools round the world, I tell my yr7s about my schooldays in Scotland including the threat of 'the belt' . They were so horrified and I feel pretty old now .

Just seen #BalletShoes at the National Theatre on London...it is FABULOUS and I loved it. Get a ticket before the reviews come out as it is going to be a smash.

I finally caught #Backtothefuturemusical at The Adelphi and it was a lot of fun. I know it isn't the first cast but it was still good and the second half is great. Recommend!
