Hello! I didn’t do Edinburgh this year so “I” hope none of you turned up to Stand One at 11am every day in Edinburgh assuming I’d be there again in my usual slot and had to watch a man comedian doing a show about penises, testicles, Adams apples and DIY for an hour. I’m back […]

HAPPY 2017 SUBSCRIBERS! Sorry it’s been so long. I’ve not really felt like talking lately. I’ve been a bit busy – rocking back and forth in the airing cupboard muttering, sucking on a comfort blanket, and trying not to think about Trump’s sentence structure when he talked about Afghanistan during his Times interview, Brexit and […]

GREETINGS! NON-WORK RELATED HYPOCRISY The other day, as I walked from Great Portland Street to Oxford Circus tube, I nipped in through Miss Selfridge and Top Shop as a sort of short cut that isn’t really a short cut, to look at too expensive bags and too expensive sunglasses, when a very small man with […]

Hello Earthlings PERSONAL ANECDOTE Yesterday I realised that I’ve been combining the two very different stories of Puss in Boots and Dick Whittington together, for years. My children, who are much younger than me, and who are cats, were completely flabbergasted and wouldn’t stop going on about it. I defended myself by saying, “So? At […]
