Happy national black cat day from Hercule Poirot :)

Another England match that has given me a stomach ache… please Sarina… I already have anxiety!

We’ve sat down in a restaurant in Sicily where they discovered that we’re English and have begun blasting David Bowie for us, 10/10. Healing the reputation of Brits abroad!

Dungeness this afternoon 🌞

I just paid EIGHT pounds for a pint, it’s so over !

I'm at the point post-surgery where all my searches are like "how long after wisdom tooth surgery to eat solid food" and "can i eat a cheese burger yet" I don't want to even LOOK at mashed potato ever again

TGIF from me and Hercule, both working away very hard!

Naming your cats after detectives is all well and good until you have to call the out of hours vet to say HERCULE POIROT IS HAVING AN EMERGENCY

Hercule and Captain Hastings 🤝 best friends forever

Captain Hastings and Hercule really giving “felt cute, might delete later” energy here

Rachel and I just rewatched Sister Act and ate a viennetta for dessert, which is peak 1990s

My cats are so middle class tbh

Anyway the most imp thing I have to share rn is this event I’m co-hosting with some lovely friends, hopefully the first of many! Pls share far & wide with any London based literary types who might be keen! Event is free & byob, readers to be announced soon on our IG @ reenchantmentldn x

The crime / the suspects

If teenage me knew she’d find this record in a Clapham charity shop on a random afternoon (!) @emmaleemoss.bsky.social 💖

The Artist‘s Way by Julia Cameron and featuring the attentions of the Honourable Phryne Fisher

I had some grand plans for tidying and admin this morning… the kittens have decided otherwise

On the rare occasion that I am not watching an episode, I’m listening to @labourshercule.bsky.social as I have found my people (i.e. other people who seriously describe David Suchet’s Poirot as a “banger”)

Marianne Faithfull forever

How I feel bc I’ve been reading my book on public transport (I lost my AirPods two days ago so I have to be alone with my thoughts)

Having a very normal Sunday night looking at photos of my own kittens, on the verge of tears thinking about the passage of time

Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings… the best kittens in the world…

How does my yoga teacher always know I’m clenching my jaw before I do?

On Thursday afternoon, I will be climbing the Three Peaks (ish) - me and my colleagues at Settle will be collectively taking on the cumulative height (3,045m) via Westway Climbing Wall. This is a part of our winter fundraising challenge which launches *TODAY*

Happy Sunday from me and Captain Hastings

I must fight Teddy from this week's you be the judge

I am painting my nails, Rachel is knitting on the sofa, the kittens are having a snooze, and we are rewatching Bridget Jones’ Diary. Rach just said “this is exactly what I thought adulthood would be like” 🥹

So blessed, so moved, can’t believe this is my life

Nat and I watched Perfect Days last night and I think I cried for the whole second half

Born to be a 365 party girl, forced to commute via SWR from Waterloo x

Best part about having kittens with absurd names is that I get texts like this at work. RIP Agatha Christie, you would have loved to see this x

I don't really have anything new to promote lol but I thought I'd share my first proper substack piece about my journey on the camino de santiago after a minor mental breakdown

I am now on blue sky and using this as yet another opportunity to share my new kittens: Hercule Poirot and Captain Hastings
