Hello. I'm not around here very often anymore - it's nicer over on Bluesky (same name there). I also don't blog very often, but... I'm going to put on a tin hat and have a go at liveblogging Eurovision v Too Much Reality this evening xrrf.blogspot.com/2024/05/livebl…

This is true; this side of the Atlantic we cannot believe that there are takeaways in America where they have managed to deep-fry disappointment.
The Kate Middleton Photo Scandal has now got me seriously questioning this. 😒

Hey @RicHolden I'm a people. And I've just heard you on Times Radio - unedited, and unclipped - and your refusal to engage with the misrepresentation clip on your Twitter feed is disgraceful, and damaging. To your party, and to the nation.
You know it’s all over when you walk into the foyer of the Live Aid musical and are edged out the way by a photographer trying to take a shot of Arlene Phillips. Oh the irony 🤦♂️

It always amuses me that everyone forgets Anita Roddick nicked the idea and the name off an American business that was actually based in an old garage (which was why it was an actual pun)
The Body Shop's UK business is set to appoint administrators this week after lower than expected sales over the Christmas period. Retail expert @maryportas tells #R4Today the brand 'didn't need to go bust' and its founder, the late Dame Anita Roddick, was 'ahead of the game'.
