Not loving that Jilly Cooper and Diane Keaton are gone. These are people my mum liked, and she's gone too, and it's an experience, having my mum's spiritual peers pop off too. Pop, pop, pop, not out like a light, but a series of popping lights.

She blocked me for pointing I’m not British and her comment was racist 😂

Kevmarmol @kevmarmol.bsky.social · 7h

Hi there, I’m not British. But I do find the idea that you suggesting people of colour don’t exist slightly more than “gentle ribbing”, and in fact more along the lines of systematic racism.

You could see that right?

Saturday night means home made curry.

Obviously being in England means there’s no spice so it’s just pan fried chicken and boiled rice right?

Also @sadeagle.bsky.social will be pleased to know I don’t intend to leave it 20years between a service next time 😉

Got the record players back from being serviced so obviously that means an afternoon of listening to the records I bought when I didn’t have them

Impressive that she carries the microphone with her third arm whilst the other two are behind her back to be fair.
