Car broke down on and waiting in the heat for the recovery vehicle. Two kind people have stopped and given me bottles of water and many others have offered help. #actsofkindness
London’s first Christmas carols at The Fayre of St James’s, Piccadilly, raising funds for Quintessentially Foundation @Q_LDN and The Firefly Project, with a charity speech by @stephenfry and reading by @simonpegg
A rare silver lining to the @SouthernRailUK engineering works. Three engineers helped me bump start my car when I was stuck at a deserted station at midnight last night. Thank you!
The streets of London are a feast for the eyes in Chelsea Flower Show Week. Hats off to the Cadogan Estate for this year’s Chelsea on Film theme. We should do this more often. #RHSChelsea
In big London property news this morning, Dexters has bought Marsh & Parsons. Dexters will be handling £5 billion of property sales through 150 offices. Hope they keep these clever ads…
Congratulations to all GCSE students but especially those with Special Educational Needs, from dyslexia to audio or slow processing and everything between. You have scaled mountains to get to this day. #gcses2022#gcseresultsday2022#gcseresults#SEND
Funny, self-deprecating, hard working and brave. The size 9 red high heels under his desk from his famous cross-dressing feature, the Chap Olympics... You will be much missed https://t.co/fAm52Vf43y
Trying and failing to find a simple bench to sit on to enjoy the sun in my lunch hour today, this sight on Smith Street, Chelsea lifted my weary soul #blueplaques#marypoppins
Just back from first proper holiday abroad in ages, relaxed and revived. That lasted two days. Got Covid. I wish now I’d used a shred of commonsense and worn a mask on the plane (and that everyone else had as well).
It was a pleasure to meet Cath Kidston at The Stitchers Garden at #RHSChelsea. She talked about the charity Fine Cell Work and the positive effects of sewing for prisoners.
Delighted to be moderator at today’s Decorex Talks Programme on ‘House, home, live, work’. Join us at 12pm with expert panel includes Richard Parr, Lindsay Cuthill, Louise Wicksteed and Alex Jurkiewicz @Decorex_Intl
@VictoriaPeckham Such good news. My mother, aged 90 and in a care home with dementia, also survived Covid with few symptoms. She was one of nine residents who tested positive in the home just before Christmas and they all pulled through. They have now all had their first vaccine.
Just had a PR email which begins: ‘Hope you don’t mind me floating this to the top of your inbox...’ It could be the hot weather but I’ve come over a bit queasy...
