In 2016, I had an ill fated stint as the Social Media Producer on Loose Women on ITV. It was a disaster, I should never have applied for the job, I certainly shouldn’t have been given it. I could do the actual job standing on my head, but the politics of the place…woof.

I fell off a ladder in August. The bill for the 1.7 mile ambulance ride is $4387.31.
Our $4500 per MONTH Cigna insurance won’t pay more than $600, because the ambulance is out of network.
There are no in-network ambulances in our county, and I was unconscious when it was called.

Andrew Milne seems to think he's the smartest guy in Britain and is playing everyone else brilliantly - but I'm not convinced it's going to end well for him.
