I wish that had happened to me :( I was a lone voice at my school....

No doubt it goes along to the music of 'The Only way is Up'......

I was very lucky - our school dinners were restaurant quality - plain food, but tasted superb... I miss the mash and sausage dumplings.... and the flans... and the custard....

I actually did that too in primary school… the tea was a little stewed, but delicious. The dinnerladies & school cook used to make me tea from then on… easier than carrying a flask with my Enid Blytons…

Have you lost weight... or has your hair been taken charge of? You look great :)

Thank you everyone for your lovely birthday messages & DMs - I'll reply to all of them directly ASAP as the next couple of days is a whirl of tea, friends, catchups & cakes! Lots of love x (These AI pics people send me seem to portray me in very regal modes.... this one is "very me" I'm told...)

A darling friend sent me this to wake me this morning with a grin… I look suitably regal for my birthday….? (Some may call it ‘daywear’ for me… ahem 😉💋)

I have long realised I growl when watching his scenes….

Ee you weren’t behind Command Centre when they were handing out Eagles, Maya…

'ee you weren't behind the door when they was 'andin' out stair rods, Ena Sharples... (Flipping auto correct and no glasses!)

I've never seen it... but looking at him in his Moonrise Alpha uniform with that beard - he's quite dashing :)

Well, thank goodness we don't catastrophise or do sensationalism on social media... or the news... or the media....

Every gay is born with a diva. Who’s your diva?

I wish I could find one now... tea tasted so much better from that cup because... well, of course it did!

Simon🟦❤️♥️🧸 @simon0161.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

The neon logo one was my go to for years… until it cracked :(((

You have great taste :) I have all I need at home, but my eye would have rested on him whilst having our tea and cake when I was single...

Simon🟦❤️♥️🧸 @simon0161.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

He very… forward… of you :) (I don’t know a great deal about it, but I’m sure it’s quite eye-catching in places…). You certainly have good taste. 😏

He is a very beautiful man.... I have become aware of his ... other ... work... but never seen it - but he looks such a lovely and attractive man in Space 1999... I remember from my 1st viewing years ago... :)))

That cylinder noise still haunts me..... (It always sounded like the pipes in our airing cupboard until we moved at 11.... I was convinced there was something in there.......)

Nothing can be said. Other than we will not forget those lost. Ever.

I wasn’t. I had a radio program to cancel and was up all night and morning. Weird experience.

They do obviously bad things. They get away with it. We scratch our heads. “Lessons shall be learned” If WE do it - ton of bricks descends. “You should have known/it’s your fault” We don’t do it again. They repeat, smile & do worse. And on it goes. It’s very VERY frustrating.

Had a wonderful holiday and now about to take off for home. Looking forward to a cuppa and my own bed! 😊😊😊

19 years ago today, I realised who I really was & celebrate it every year - each ‘gay’ day is a huge bonus to just be alive. To those wonderfuls who & arrived afterwards & became ‘chosen family’ - Thank you 🙂 My beautiful Son, My wonderful Fiancé & friends - I love you all ♥️

It’s hard to teach my child that ‘do the right thing’ is the way to live when there is so much contrary popular evidence in today’s society (in whatever form) & those who perpetrate terrible acts escape punishment routinely & are still honoured & unaccountable.

It was like looking at a whole new show..... My 1st memories are from the Horns of Nimon and then, this..... quite a surprise in the change, but loved it :)

Racy! But, then, you have always had that 'adorable je ne said quoi'-ness about you - comes from within :) (Ps do you know how many times I had to fight autocorrect to get that sentence right! X)
