'A woman accused of stalking Harry Styles sent him 8,000 cards in less than a month, a court has heard.'
Even if she worked weekends that's around 250 cards a day. Bearing in mind she was also sending him handwritten letters, that's a very busy full time job that she's basically doing for free.

This time last year I was living in Blackpool. The flat was serviced so I had to vacate it every Monday morning to be cleaned. Coral Island, 2 cups of coffee in Costa then big Sainsbury on Talbot Road to do my shopping.
I cannot tell you how depressing Coral Island is on a Monday morning in winter.

Aussie #TheTraitors series 2 (iPlayer) is looking pretty good so far. They have a mixture of celebs/normal people but obviously I don't recognise any of the celebs. I'm thinking Jack Black, Su Pollard and possibly one of the women who did that Eurovision milk maid/wanking song.

I was looking for somewhere that did ear syringing now my doctors have stopped doing it. To be honest I took it as read that it would be a same day service. I hadn't planned on leaving my ears with you for a couple of days.
