I'm reminded of a P G Wodehouse story in which Polly Pott muses that a chap is the kind of man who likes to go around kissing girls when a handshake or just an affable nod of acknowledgement would suffice. The chap's name? The Earl of Ickenham.

Think I'm gonna do a triple bill tomorrow of Marcel the Shell, Flow, and The Wild Robot. Because I haven't dehydrated myself crying at a movie in a while. #Cryfest

Before I saw A Complete Unknown, I didn't know that Diamonds and Rust (which I love) was about Dylan. Now I can't stop thinking about the line 'My poetry was lousy, you said.'

I didn't much like The Witch. I liked and admired The Northman but found it a little bit daft in parts. I am weirdly excited to go see Nosferatu.

Catch Me If You Can is a Christmas movie. This is not controversial, I believe.

With all the progress feminism has made in the last 100 years, why do we still have women's fragrances called 'Petal' and 'Bellissima' and men's ones called 'Strider' and 'Roughneck'?

Are there seriously fragrances called "Good Girl" and "Bad Boy"? Christ on a bike, what decade are we in, again?

assuming 10 plants per row, and 4.5kg of beans per plant, this works out as 40.5kg of beans and a modest amount of honey, and this has got to keep yeats going for an entire year

I miss Luciano Pavarotti. I only just realised there's a whole album by him duetting with people like Jon Bon Jovi and Sheryl Crow. Just listened to 'Là ci darem la mano' from Don Giovanni with Ms Crow, from that album, and it's fabulous.
