“The Ukraine” is a region of Russia, Mr Flynn. The country standing up to Putin is “Ukraine”. Slava Ukraine.

I find this image deeply disturbing. None of this is normal, right?

Thirty years ago, I visited a public school in Helsinki where the medium of delivery was English. It was for children whose families had come home from postings abroad. The students were all already fluent in Finnish, of course. Strangest thing was they took their shoes off before coming into class.

Remember that bit in GOT, just before the Battle of the B*st*rds when Sansa told Jon not to even try to save Rickon because he was already dead? Kennedy Centre maybe?

I was a little girl in 1974. It was grim. Homework done by kerosene lamps and certainty that the bombs would drop. Then I grew up and thought things got better, after all, ‘The Wall‘ came down. Yet here we are again.

St Francis told his followers, “Go and preach the Gospel. And, if you have to, use words.” I think Dolly Parton lived that throughout her life. Rest in Peace good lady.

On account of my then job, the last time I got one of these, HMQ had died. This time, I dropped my phone on the kitchen floor.

It’s a young, evidently well nourished person. Not fat, but certainly not skinny.

Spent the last few seasons thinking ,”Well, there goes a milk-fed boy”. This tournament has been a revelation. I wish him so well in anything and everything he chooses to do from now.

I offered to knit some testicles for a colleague since she was so tired of being ignored in meetings. Told her to hold them up whenever she spoke.
