Accidentally listened to Girl in Red ‘I’m back’ on loop for half hour and I’ll be honest, I don’t mind it.

Super cute of past me to agree to do an early podcast recording in a completely different town on a Sunday morning so I have ‘more day’ when I’m finished doing it. No way regretted that at 7am. Nope.

In era where I feel I have had relatively few victories, growing my hair long enough to be able to brush it with a paddle brush in long strokes like Marcia Brady feels like a big win.

First show down of Leicester Comedy Festival on the penultimate day. @leslieis.cool @vixleyton.bsky.social with a great silly start to my day. Who was the new thing you were trying please?

If you're in Leicester tomorrow, I recommend you go to see either or both of these. I'd also recommend my own show, but it was two weekends ago; you missed it. So choose Vix.

Crowdsourcing my job - how would you describe the age group ‘25 - 34’? It has no defined generation - I am leaning towards midult but that doesn’t feel quite right #PR #research #generations

I cannot find a quiet place to talk to BBC London about Beyoncé and occasionally I have to acknowledge how ridiculous my life is.

I have heard the phrase ‘at my wit’s end’ a fair few times but only today do I truly understand it.

New material at lovely Leicester Comedy festival! Based on ticket sales, you won’t be on your own but you’ll definitely fit…

A selection of worst case scenarios became real in a row and I have to say, as rubbish as it is, there is something quite liberating about it all. Breathing is easier. Okay. Let’s plan our next moves then.

All my X friends went to other channels and I haven’t yet found my feet on here yet; I am surprised how lonely I feel without this extra world of pals in my pocket. The unique community we had was such a wonderful thing, didn’t realise how much I relied on it. Very odd, very modern problem.

Been an ice hockey girl for years, finally got to a game outside Wales and disappointed in the home fans conduct towards the visiting team; I always, always clapped the away team off the ice, whatever happened in the game. Booing feels very unsporting, particularly when they won. Made me miss home.

I love that Vix includes a shout out to the Catatonia mailing digest in this. Those were the days.

An absolute festival of train cancellations at Doncaster so in full consumer champion mode dishing out advice. Northern Rail just told everyone to make their own way and claim back, in a cost of living crisis. Wild.

Ordered a much longed for wine at Kings Cross before my train and it was disgusting; clearly contaminated in some way. But I did not drink it - despite having no social batteries to take it back - as I knew, despite paying out for it, I deserved better. And that baby, is personal growth 💅🏼

Back at Leicester Comedy Festivsl for the 5th year with competitive storytelling game Comedy Arcade - absolute bargain for never before told stories, overshares and completely voluntary non-speaking audience participation. #leicester #comedy

How is my first week going in my new job? I have six Slack conversations going that are all iterations of ‘I’ve broken this, can you help me?’

Why don’t trains dim the lights when it is late?? Please. I do not need to see my own wan face reflected back in the window every minute of the journey in the worst light imaginable.

Massive Sunday night scaries as I start a new grown up job tomorrow after 3 months pursuing creative interests. Please feel free to reassure me everyone will be nice and I will know where the toilets are immediately and won’t get lost on the way. My nail polish is my biggest hype man currently.

Had a brilliant time recording a live show that ended up too chaotic to edit. For a shot of queer joy, I give you the festive edition of Comedy Arcade, recorded very obviously live in Sheffield! youtu.be/TTlphRbL0Kg
