I saw that on an old Top of the Pops recently and I couldn't get it off my brain for about a month. "Darling I love you!" 🤨

If healthcare improvement research matters to you - come along to THIS Space - a completely free online conference about just that. The programme has just dropped and it's looking like another great year - and spaces are limited. See you there! #THISspace2025

On the plus side, getting home tonight felt like a massive relief!

Gotta love it when your train gets cancelled on one of the hottest days of the year, forcing you to not only hang around in the sun for an hour and get a steaming migraine, but share the next train an hour later with twice as many bad tempered people as usual, many of whom needed a deodorant top up.

August 11 is always a tough one to get through. Ten years ago today, I lost my dad, after a long illness.

My husband died two years later on the same date. Completely out of the blue.

So yeah, tough day for bad memories. And it's a Monday this year.

I've had three of them this week. Wanting to know if I can send my Amazon link or Goodreads details. I had my suspicions as two were worded exactly the same, and my Amazon link is right there on my website that they claim to have found me on. Sigh

Scary film! Lock up your rabbits 😨😳

I was thinking the same about it being timely... Nothing changes, does it?
That bassline, it's phenomenal, too. And I agree with you about Holly. Love it.

Is it just me, or is Two Tribes by Frankie Goes to Hollywood an absolute gold plated banger of a tune, even if it's well over 40 years old?

... And not a good one

There is no better feeling than walking out of the dental hygienist's clinic, safe in the knowledge that you don't need to go back for six months.

Well have you SEEN the cost of hospital TV? 😂

I have to say that I didn't have 'chasing a mouse around a barrel of chicken feed' on my weekend bingo card. But there you go...
No mice were harmed in the making of this post. Despite curious chickens.

My story set in Suffolk in the 17th century has been published in Suffolk Magazine... I absolutely LOVED writing this!

I absolutely agree. Not to mention the risk of permanent nail bed damage if they get caught and yanked off, it's gonna be painful...

I felt really grown up at 12 when my parents finally let me get my ears pierced, but I would never have been allowed acrylic nails if they'd existed then. I could wear polish on special occasions. Twelve years old is a little girl, not mature enough to know how to look after acrylic nails 😳

Just ventured into the local Facebook group and seen a woman asking for recommendations for a nail tech who'll do acrylics on a 12 year old 😳😳😳
I've replied that she's not likely to find anywhere reputable willing to do it and no insurance will cover that age. Bet she does it anyway.

I've already forgotten it.

My ❤️❤️... I adored #Fame in 1982. Used to do dance routines in the playground and sing all the songs 🎶
#totp RIP Irene Cara...

I still cringe at the memory of trying to dance to this at a school disco in 1982. Little did I know the song would be played at every wedding I ever went to, well into the next century, so I would be able to practice it. #ComeOnEileen #totp

It's making my ears bleed.

Yazoo - absolutely class. I saw Alison Moyet live a few years ago and she definitely still has it #totp

"No son of mine is going out looking like that" - right?
Do remember "Is that a boy or a girl?" on repeat...

I bet you looked lovely 😍
