I got the email the other day. It's disgusting. Our bill was £220.16 for the year in 2022. Thames flooded our entire flat with sewage in summer 2021, we lost everything, had to have our place totally rebuilt and were forced to live in temp accom for a year. Our bill this year? £565.76.

I was Jack then Julia. The former cos I want Ravi to get back with his ex Priya as I LOVE her character, and the latter cos I think Julia Jackson has a proper ring to it xx

I also screamed at Sonia saying she might name her baby Julia or “Tony with an ‘I’”. When I went to vote after the show on Denise choosing Ravi or Jack, that was the next bonus vote, lol xx

I’m biased cos of my Yorkshire family, but I love Whitby/Scarborough/Robin Hood’s Bay/Bridlington. Hell, even Filey. Wakefield is also v underrated, as is Bradford. Leeds and Sheffield are cool too. Totally second York from what other folk have said too, spent a lot of time there xx

We just checked, and he was indeed curled up in the little cosy bed box lined with a folded over fleecy throw in the shed. We’re pretty sure this cat is a stray now xx

If there's the means for there to be enough booze above 8K ft for her to be an alkie, surely there's the means for there to be enough meds for the kid? But her being an alkie added nothing to the narrative anyway. Nothing in the film makes sense.

The Frida Kahlo one is from a tiny little Mexicana shop in Hastings called Atomic Marigold, and the green and gold art deco one online from the Coastal Cushion Company xx

My tinnitus is horrible. But how do you know if you've got a build up of wax? I'm partially deaf in my right ear, which I guess doesn't help matters xx

It’s not my first spine rodeo. Two major spinal surgeries (one emergency) and about seven other ops since in the last 10 years, so I’m fine, as I am soooo used to it, thanks though. Just so boring! Can’t do anything xx

I feel SO BAD, but I do have the excuse that I’m currently officially a cripple with a blown disc in my spine compressing nerves and unable to properly walk, so that’s you tomorrow in the hell of last min Christmas gift buying in M&S with the Sparks card getting him something fancy… xx

It's this place for anyone interested who lives in the area: london.mestizomx.com As someone who has travelled around a little in Mexico (Df, Acapulco, Pie De La Cuesta, Guanajuato) and ate alllll the food, I think it's pretty good!

Thing is, her character in that ad comes across as the most deranged bunny boiler, so it’s probs a hard no for many

It's just so, so good! Laugh-out-loud funny while saying important stuff at the same time, but ultimately, just a blast xx

I’m already on gabapentin rather than pregablin (v similar), have been for years. It’s the best thing for my nerve pain and the only drug that touches it, but I can’t take more than I’m already being prescribed xx
