Like, my most mild opinion that is apparently beyond the pale and veering into rabid Bolshevism these days is you should be able to get an affordable bus or train to a neighbouring town or village, anywhere in the country.

Minder on the Orient Express is currently being shown on ITV4. A feature length 1985 TV movie, I've never even heard of this. It looks both brilliant and terrible and the same time.

While I was in prison, I was the food procurement clerk. It was my job to work with the first cook to design the daily food menu and then make sure the men were fed on a budget of $2.60 per person per day.

Each Christmas my husband makes me a year in review made up of our no-context WhatsApp photos to each other, and it is my favourite thing ever. No evidence of our holiday, obviously, but local roadworks were well represented.

We found out about the fire when a customer came in, ordered 3 pints of Caffreys, then - as I handed them to him & asked for payment - said 'do you know the roof's on fire?' The roof was thatched. He walked into a burning pub for a Xmas pint. There'll always be an England.
