Ep 1 of PROcrastination Pod is up! I have a natter with musician, artist, activist and broadcaster Linton Stephens about how the hell he gets stuff done when he'd rather be doing something else. and the power of napping procrastinationpod.podbean.com

My cat watching Traitors last night

I think I’m going to start talking like the dolls in the Traitors. Just to spice up January a bit.

My favourite bits of Below Deck Sailing Yacht are whatever Captain Glen’s up to when everyone else is out.

Incredibly honoured that Diary of a Confused Feminist has been included in the RISE: A Feminist Book Project list as one of their top ten books by the American Libraries Association Feminist Task Force www.schoollibraryjournal.com/story/Rise-F...

I’ve come back from France where I’ve been unfaithfully hanging out with another cat and I think he knows.

I’m watching Selling the City and I have so many questions but my first is why can none of these terribly rich men seem to afford socks? Not a scrap of foot hosiery between them.

Writing tip: After you finish, go back & cut all the adverbs. Then all the adjectives. Then all the other words. Eat the paper. Now you're free.

How your email finds me.

I don’t think she intends to get out of bed today at all.

While the LA fires are a constant news spool, I only found out about this fire in Accra last week because @karenlawler.bsky.social follows various sustainable fashion accounts on insta. www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/...

I was writing but she pushed the laptop off my lap and took up position there instead.

As a huge Victoria Wood fan this podcast is so perfect. As with everything Victoria Wood did it’s hilarious and smart and touching. Thank you for the recommendation @notrollergirl.bsky.social 🩷

Ending the year with Joan Didion

Just finished reading this incredible proof of Bad Manners by Amy Beashall which is publishing this year. Such a thoughtful, rage-inducing and relatable book. A must read. Thank you for the proof @harpernorth.bsky.social

So I'll be back around then. We'll be trying to raise a bit of money for Centrepoint, bearing in mind that there are a bunch of people who have nowhere to go this evening. gofund.me/637d21d0 ENDS FOR NOW 🎄🛏️

So, let's try doing #duvetknowitschristmas here this evening? People are literally Driving Home For Christmas right now, which MIGHT JUST mean that they'll be sleeping somewhere unusual. 1/

He’s been visited by 3 ghosts

Everyone seems to be at this "2024 wrapped" business now. I'm genuinely expecting one from Octopus Energy at any minute letting me know which days of the year I boiled the kettle the most or left lights on around the house.

What’s that, Santa? Could it be? WHY YES! A You’re Booked Christmas special with Helen Lederer. podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/y...

My hot take for today is that '2024 wrapped' is fun when Spotify does it, but not fun when my bank does it. Thank you for reading.

I have finished Die Hard. It's a Christmas film. I'll not be taking any further questions.

Some of the household is finding Die Hard a little more stressful than others.

I’ve never watched Die Hard the whole way through so that’s what I’m doing this afternoon. I wanted to watch a film about an opera singer stranded in Yorkshire for Christmas at a BnB run by a handsome widower. But here we are.

Done a Strictly Come Dancing one off special of our old SCD pod, Come Strictly Dancing, summing up our feelings on the 2024 sparkly climax. It’s on the Box of Delights feed… pod.link/1469373124

This book's so good. Like, so SO good.

I'm a bit poorly and would love suggestions for a Christmas film that I can watch in-between naps. I've already seen Hot Frosty, this year's Lindsay Lohan Christmas offering and the one with the guy from One Tree Hill dancing. All suggestions welcome please and thank you.

Oh HELLO! Hurrah!
