I’m getting so many lovely messages from fellow midlife women saying they forgot they’d pre-ordered it and have bought it again; some more than once. Wondering if anyone’s ever made it onto bestseller list on back of menopause/brain fog before? Happy to be the first:

Why is it that men who hate women, say that women who stand up to men who hate women, hate men?

I wonder if them getting off-lead on a walk is like us taking our bra off after a long day.

Someone told one of my kids: ‘Your mum looks great for her age’. They replied: ‘Or even… my mum just looks great’. The world needs many baby humans like this.

Had the best time behind the scenes at The Big Cat Sanctuary with Cam Whitnall today. If you’re not aware of their work, or of Cam’s remarkable rescue of lions from war-torn Ukraine, click on this:

Wonderful time in Norway. I thanked them for their annual Trafalgar Square Christmas tree (and said if it gets any smaller, perhaps I could pop it in my hand luggage and bang it up in Trafalgar Square myself).

Didn’t expected to be greeted in the toilets at Norway’s Stavanger airport by my brunette doppelgänger accompanied by the sound of Rogaland birdsong. Can’t help thinking, as I fly back to the UK, that maybe I’m living the wrong life 🇳🇴 ❤️

Jeff had the option of coming to work with me for a bit this afternoon. He stuck his nose into the cold air for three seconds and firmly declined. Still I got home to this.

On Jeremy Vine this morning, where we managed to (briefly) subvert the legal compliance taping of the swears on my book jacket. Like the Sex Pistols all over again.

Whenever I see Jeff curled up in his nest with his pink corduroy unicorn I think we’ve got it all wrong and should all be him.

FaceTimed the wonder girl - me in London, her in Madrid - and look! Both supporting the mother brand. Like time we were reading same book and compared on FaceTime where we were. Same chapter. Same page. Same paragraph. 👯♂️

Today a friend of mine was round at my place having a cry. Jeff gave her each of his corduroy toys, laying them gently one after another at her feet. She was still crying. But he did a good job. Good dog, Jeff.

My daughter and I have not lived in the same country for 7 years now. Every time we say goodbye, we each hide cards somewhere for the other to find. Just found today’s tucked into my laptop at the airport. It’s with the usual heavy heart I’m flying in wrong direction. Te amo, hija mía.
