Pretty chuffed with the first week response to the new 90’s dance influenced remix of ‘I Was A Photograph’ - it’s been played on several independent radio stations plus added to a stack of playlists. Any profits to go @soundmindsuk distrokid.com/hyperfollow/ja…

I fell asleep during the final episode of The Traitors. Doesn’t seem much point in watching it now though - same thing happened last year.

I’ve already seen the Tesco Xmas as ad about 4 x and it’s only November 1st. It’s a shame cos two very good actresses ruining themselves in it.

Banger written by Prince. Madly not a hit in the UK.
🇺🇸 At No.18 on The US Hot 100 this week in 1984 it's "Strut" by Sheena Easton

I stand corrected it was the follow up Sugar Walls that was written by Prince. Was told off for being wrong 🤪

Lawrence is obviously very handsome but seems refreshingly free of ego #Strictly

Erm no not particularly.
For those who lived through the early ‘90s, was life really as carefree, charming, and full of romance as those old rom-coms make it look? Because watching them makes today’s world feel like a depressing downgrade.

I don’t get why the judges thought that John was so good - Cach for instance was in a different league #Strictly

I like Will a lot. Definitely a posh boy though isn’t he #Strictly

I used to think the Tessbot seemed insincere but these links feel so contrived #Strictly

My mum has just commented that Mary Berry’s oven ‘isn’t very clean’.

Look I say this as someone who is actually due to have an assessment for it - but at this stage is there ANY celebrity who does not have ADHD? I’m starting to think there is no such thing as ‘neurotypical’, & I mean I barely know anyone I would class as it if it does exist.

I swear Tiffany Pollard is Miss Piggy incarnate #BigBrother

I don’t really know why the #BigBrother contestants are so desperate to make the final when it doesn’t mean anything in terms of fame these days.

A phrase that is guaranteed to spark anxiety in me ‘Can we Face Time’?

Ella Henderson and Ella Eyre are the same people in my mind.

Pop fans please read my piece 😃
I wrote a piece on how I have (unexpectedly) found myself quite excited about the Hear’Say / Liberty X reunions and joint comeback tour (Liked the later first time around, was a bit nonplussed by the former) jamesleon.substack.com/p/hea…

My train to my mum’s is the Exeter St David’s train. There are two loud posh young girls talking excitedly- I just know they are students at Exeter Uni.

The blonde one has that throaty rasp so quintessential of posh girls.

The man sat next to me on this train is reading George Cole (Minder)‘s autobiography. I’m predicting he’s getting off at Baisingstoke
