So much to discover @WhiskyExchange Cognac Show last week. History and heritage is so vital to this great drink and the stories behind the bottles add depth to them. Highlights included the Grosperrin 1924 Grande Champagne and the Prunier Horizon quaffed.wordpress.com/2025/0…
More bad and confusing marketing, this time by the BBC. Marble Hall Murders is a new series and is marketed as Series 1 but is actually the 3rd series with the same characters by Anthony Horowitz and featuring Atticus Pünd mysteries edited by the character Susan Ryeland
And breathe... okay, let's try that again. Lungs, do your thing!!!
Hot coffee and mints are my answer. Or a nap...
I just don't understand how a certain ad is being aired when the basic premise is 'we're not a quality brand, you don't want to admit you come here, even to yourself, but, don't worry, you'll soon forget you spent your money with us'
I can't type with Tobes in my arms, esp when staving off his clawy paws digging into my neck.
New toy bribe coming up!
Waiting for the RAC, then going to have a coffee and get on with my day.
Or a Bloody Mary, need the vitamin C today, bit chilly here...

Like throwing a party, the anxiety for anyone organising a fringe event is whether anyone will turn up.
I take succour from the knowledge that however bad it gets it can't be as bad as the time I went to an 'In conversation' between @George_Osborne and @williamnhutton.

All lines have now reopened between Lewes and Brighton; however, services are running at reduced speeds at the moment.
You can continue to use your normal route; however, we would advise you to allow an additional 20 minutes to complete your journey.
Please ensure you check before you travel and allow additional time.
I tend to blame editors, not authors - and I’ve been both. Reading a book where the line ‘your name is four letters long’ was printed.
It had five letters.
Charles Spencer’s book with the huge mistake accusing Piers Morgan of something he couldn’t have done? Editor and legals
I made an espresso. Frogs knocked it over.
I made a Bloody Mary… Frogs is now on my lap so I can’t drink it.
Happy Sunday!
Wonderful weather @SouthEngShows, Ardingly, W #Sussex. Fab day out, loved seeing so many dogs. Sitting in the sun watching equestrian events after a busy morning shopping and sampling. Great weekend event and v family friendly, plus free parking

Lots to see and do @SouthEngShows Autumn Show and Horse Trials at Ardingly, W #Sussex this weekend, including the opportunity to buy fantastic early #Christmas presents from indie producers. Looking forward to sampling seasonal liqueurs and watching dog and equestrian events
