Remembering back in the 90s in London when we'd all just got the INTERNET at work & everyone downloaded those xmas lights that twinkled on your computer screen & the whole system crashed & we all got sent home & the IT department had a nervous breakdown.

Sunday morning.
Doing a fry for my boy while listening to a French radio show about butter.
Butter.
France, like all countries, is flawed & troubled.
But fuck me, an hour long live transmission about butter.
I love France with all my butter-scuppered heart.

I met Paula Rego at a party in Paris thrown by a mutual friend in the early 90s when I was in my early 20s (la de da).
She was absolutely lovely, chatty, curious, warm & funny.
I was a very lucky ducky. It still warms the cockles all these years later.

I grew up in the era of brand new school shirts packaged with metal pins & your mum wouldn't have quite removed all of them & you'd get chibbed up by your own clothing.

My St Helens SIL Deb was xmas shopping with her young son in the late 90s
Single parent, not easy.
He wanted specific goalkeeper gloves
She bought the wrong ones
He wept & cried "Schmeichel, Schmeichel"
She replied:
"You can bugger off I'm not going back to Marks!!!"

Tonight's comfort watch - A Room With A View
I had such a crush on Rupert Graves when I first watched it aged 14
Years later living in Stoke Newington in the mid 90s he lived on our street.
I used to see him out walking his dog
I WASN'T STALKING HIM
But there was some loitering on my part

Everyone should work retail for at least 6 months.
A military service of sorts. Mandatory.
It's brutal. Unless you've done it, you don't have an inkling.
It's December. It's mental out there in the service industry.
Be nice. You're truly not that important.
And say thank you & smile goddamit.
