I’m in a hotel bar in Manchester. ON MY OWN AT NIGHT. I’ve just ordered my 2nd martini (gin and olive option) and a side order of fries. It’s quite busy with lot going on. It’s fun. I’m people watching* Absolutely couldn’t have done this 10/15 years ago.

I have adored Elvis Costello since I was aware of his existence. Who knows why these teenage fascinations become a bit manic? Anyway, he evolved. And so did I. I still adore him. And I finally got up close 2 years ago. This is my photo.

I’m planning an adventure! If I told you that I’m travelling with 2 people that lived next door to me nearly 40 years ago to go visit the one who lived on the other side of me nearly 40 years ago would you believe me? Keep your friends close and your neighbours closer 🇹🇭 #excited

I’m currently gripped by Agrippa. Fighting the urge to delve into a rabbit hole of what isn’t true. Or why the little we know might have been. Chuffing good read for a Sunday!

After a reading abstinence of a month, I’m back on board. I don’t care if it’s all made up. It’s fiction! It’s managed to reawaken my enthusiasm. Like it. Don’t like it. I don’t care. 😂

I don’t post much on here. But I SO enjoy the people that do! I honestly look forward to your posts! I want to know how you’re doing. I’m one of the silent people that like you. Keep posting!

I bought what I thought was a one off purchase of Collagen from a company called Elavate 3m ago. I have just been charged for a renewal. Fair enough. I now wish to cancel the subscription but I honestly can not find out how to do it.

Just spent a lovely few days with The Bairns. The Grand Bairn (who has recently celebrated his 1st birthday) surprised us all by walking a lot of steps unaided. So today I was lucky enough to be present for the ritual that is the 1st foot measurement and the 1st shoe purchase.

Sitting in my attic bedroom, drinking my 1st coffee of the day. On the floor below me, I can hear The Bairn chatting to the Grand Bairn. There is so much playfulness and love in his voice that it’s made me a bit tearful. My boys 💙🩵

I bought some Claudia gloves. Bought the smallest size available. Still way too big. If anyone with bigger hands than me would like them, give me a shout.

I went to a funeral today. To support a friend. It’s the 1st time I’ve been back in that place where we said goodbye to my sister earlier this year. It was tough. But I did it. No more funerals please x

This time last year, I was hotfooting it to Addenbrookes hospital on a train. Not because there was a medical emergency, thankfully. But because I’d just learned that I had a grandson. I cannot believe how quickly those 12m have flown.

Nothing if not on the ball. Just watching Line of Duty for THE FIRST TIME. From the beginning. Currently on Series 3. Took me a while to get into the swing of it but I’m now fully invested. See you Monday 🫢

I have just upgraded my reading glasses from 1.5 to 2.5. Join me next time I make a life changing decision. It’s a whole new world

There is a very small group of friends on here that I’m proud to be part of. I don’t actually know what brought us together but now we like football! @loopyblonde @1StevieKilner @polgarareturns @grumpybutkind1
We especially like proper football
Soon, yes?
