Pronouns he/him/his. Don’t expect high brow discourse, I mainly post about art I like, travel, 80s pop music and rugby players’ thighs 😂 “Don’t I deserve love? And jewellery?”

In other news, I had that dream again last night where I have 2 wee dogs, a Scottie and a Westie, and am touring around Scotland in a camper van 😍🖤🤍

Watched The Holdovers on Film4 last night & loved it. Giamatti is excellent as always but it’s Da’Vine Joy Randolph’s performance as grieving mother Mary that blew me away. It’s easy to see why she won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress 👏🏻

After an emotional day yesterday at the UK AIDS Memorial Quilt, which I think everyone should see, I’m pleased to do something fun today. En route to Glasgow with a latte & jammy biscuit to meet my friend. We’re off to the Barbie exhibition at Kelvingrove then to a new pizza restaurant for lunch 😍♥️

I know we should be rating the celebs but I couldn’t stop watching new dancer Mark - his legs were going so fast and so high. To coin a phrase from Miss Hannigan, “little scissors legs”! 😂 #strictly

In a work meeting this week a colleague said they’re going on holiday soon to Montego Bay. In reply, I sang “Sing out, Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh”. My colleagues hadn’t a clue, even after I said it’s Amazulu 😳 Tell me, you know this song! open.spotify.com/track/4L72i6...

Had such a busy, productive day working from home that I forgot to take something out of the freezer for dinner. So I have no option but to phone for a Chinese takeaway and open a bottle of wine 😂

Heartbreakingly beautiful, Carroll Spinney performs It’s Not Easy Bein’ Green at Jim Henson’s memorial service. Asked to perform by Jim Hendon’s son Brian, he is fighting back tears throughout. Looking upward he says “Thank you Kermit” as a final goodbye to Jim 😢. www.facebook.com/share/v/19bZ...

Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.

Thinking of booking a week somewhere warm(ish) in January. A friend suggest Cape Verde. Another suggested Marrakesh but I’m not sure if that’s too cold in Jan? Any thoughts/suggestions?

My algorithms used to show me skateboarding dogs, now it’s people with pet pigs. I can see why they love pigs because they have cognitive abilities similar to dogs and babies, form strong bonds, and can feel emotions such as joy, fear and sadness. 🐷🥰♥️ www.instagram.com/reel/DdmOw18...
