And in others news, I heard Mariah Carey on the radio today and ripped the plug out of the socket so hard that I'm surprised I didn't start fizzing.

That photo of Andrew with the 17 year old Virginia Giuffre has been around for years and years. Everyone knew what he was yet it took those years and years of hang-wringing to remove his flipping title? He'll move into a slightly smaller mansion and will live out his years quite comfortably. Awful.

Brian Molko used to visit the girls who lived in the Chalk Farm flat below us circa 1997. My flat mate would yell "Brian's here!" and we'd all peek at the window.

I ran a half marathon today in memory of a beautiful friend who told me it was her dying wish to have a race run in kangaroo suits in her honour. She was an awesome friend, so it had to be done. Some colleagues came to cheer us on, wearing 'Sonja masks', which was a bit freaky!

This could be a long and rambling thread. Be patient with me.
I bought an old mahogany bureau on Ebay. I didn't really want a bureau as we're meant to be downsizing, but it was a beautiful piece & obviously very old. Google lens suggests the brass chased handles are Queen Anne. That's 1702-1714 😯

I was in town today & took a stroll past Trafalgar Square just as the peaceful protesters were being carried off. There were so many police vans about that you'd have thought a riot was going down. A tourist asked me what was happening. I tried to explain. She replied "but these people are elderly".

In a nod to Robert Redford, I decided to watch this tonight. I'm left wondering why/how this is the first time in my 50 years that I've seen it. Bloody loved it.
