The Bayeux Tapestry up in lights at Piccadilly Circus! Tickets on sale from 1 July for the exhibition at the British Museum, opening in September. First chance in 1,000 years to see this iconic object back on British soil.

Much as I’d like my own red coated butler to greet me at the Black Box Recorder gig I shall resist the temptation

Trouble is now if I see any impressive human feat on video I just assume it’s AI. Geoff Capes ripping up the Yellow Pages? AI

It’s worth squinting to read the inscription on this one - a strong ending Monument to Ann Gaderen (d.1699) at Whitchurch, Bucks 👇

It’s too fucking hot

Had a dream that I was eating Toffee Hobnobs and mash. WHAT AM I LIKE?

This opening bit at the start of the BAFTAs is always shit and excruciating regardless of who does it. Why do they persist with it?

I’ve hurt my finger but I did it snapping bits of plywood in half like Geoff Capes so I’m also extremely cool

I could never have become a curling champion because the shoes are too ugly

Sometimes I really like Chanel No 5 and others I think it smells like piss 🤷‍♀️

Now playing:

Goin’ Wuthering Heights again later

That Yolk Isn’t Funny Anymore Alma Batters I Know It’s Ova

I maintain that pancakes just aren’t that nice (and the day was only invented to use ingredients up etc) otherwise we’d be getting excited about making them all the time.

BUTTERFLY IN BLUE JEANS HAMSTER IN A CHIFFON TOP

Had the album on repeat all weekend. it’s a cracker open.spotify.com/track/1lTp6S...

Really need to stop calling Small Prophets Lost Prophets

This is an entertaining / horrifying read exploring the complexities / power imbalance of a 20yr age gap relationship. Kind of like watching a car crash in slow motion and featuring a well rounded younger character abandoned by authority figures in her own life which ofc so often drives these things

Is it raining? I HADN’T NOTICED

rest in peace

Well, I loved it

I’m going in #wutheringheights

I guess I very very occasionally wonder if I’ve missed out by not having kids but definitely not when my sister is doing things like taking my 14 yo niece to see Deftones at the NEC

RIP Bud Cort. How else would you even pay tribute to him.

A nearly two hour journey home from work in the pissing rain puts me in a mood very far from merriment

Texting my husband about a good dog on the tube

Six weeks of the emergency services (Little Waitrose) being suspended in Muswell Hill

If I do my brows before the rest of my eye make up I look like Brezhnev

MAGIC POSITION ON 6MUSIC ❤️

Also that it was written by a woman in her 20s who I think as far as we know didn’t have any romantic relationships makes you want to scream WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU and how did you articulate it like this at that age because I don’t think it can properly resonate until you’re in your 40s and v damaged

Rereading Wuthering Heights which I last read years ago. Baggage accumulated in the meantime has triggered narcissistic / toxic relationship PTSD I think, urgh. Still what a weird and brilliant book.

The Archer statue by Eric Aumonier has stood over the passengers and trains of East Finchley station for 86 years, pointing the way to Central London and beyond. Read more on this icon of the tube network here www.modernism-in-metroland.co.uk/blog/the-arc...

CLOSE to the British Arts and Comedy Community but still ostracised and living feral in the woods

CHURCH CRAWL CHURCH CRAWL CHURCH CRAWL CHURCH CRAWL

I do like the way the expression on his face is that of a man who you've just walked in on doing something unspeakable

Drinking a cool glass of Pinot Grigio in a pub in deep Norfolk which is playing This Night Has Opened My Eyes #imnothappyandimnotsad

Where I’m calling from

Now playing:

Gonna post this clip of Cliff Richard as Heathcliff every day until he gets the recognition he deserves

I absent-mindedly signed up for some training at work a few weeks ago and then forgot about it. Today I found out I have a place and upon further investigation am very worried it’s going to be like this. youtu.be/ndr7HTZsReQ?...

When they said HRT makes you feel younger I didn’t know they meant a return of the stomach cramps -controlled for many years- where it feels like someone has been kicking you repeatedly in the lower abdomen. Nostalgie de la boue.

Is it wrong to view this equally, if not more so, as being a song about someone who ruined your life rather than someone who saved your life? www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Wd1...
