Can I be in it even if the email I'm waiting for won't come because I actually have to finish writing the book first 😂

Call the Midwife springs to mind. Also, I just googled 'British films set in 1950s' to see which I had seen, and was amazed and thrilled to discover Chicken Run is one the BFI reccomends 😂🐔! Set in the 50s apparently!

Feel you on this! The intense fear of dropping the thread when you're otherwise on a roll is so real 😂

Another excellent measure of writing dedication! Off to put my own eye drops in now. 😅

£45 a day, Saturdays, Sundays, bank holiday Mondays. I walked around the store and after customers had sat on a sofa I would plump the cushions back up - there were 4 of us in every store. Best job I ever had! 😄
