NEW: Queen Elizabeth II thought Boris Johnson "better suited to the stage" than politics and two days before her death, after he resigned, she told a senior courtier in jest: "At least that idiot won't be organising my funeral." 1/ https://t.co/VoXvjib8BN
The kids are sweet. Concerned about mum. Has she got off the train? Dad laughs, no mate, she’ll be up there. Mum comes back crying, I booked peppa pig world cos I thought you’d like it. I did it for you guys. And my heart breaks. For those kids. That family, the fucking trauma.
On a late night train. Two parents are arguing. Mum is crying . Dad is telling the kids in a calm quiet voice that this is all mums fault, this long journey. Mum is so selfish that she didn’t drive and now everyone is tired and stressed….
@JaneyGodley I’m so sorry to hear Janey has died. She obviously occupied a special place for many people. I salute her bravery in talking about her hospice stay and I hope that her memory inspires other acts of courage.
One of the most joyous experiences of life is the stomach churning excitement that comes with a crush. The panic when they actually talk to you. The heart stopping thud of a first kiss. Stop robbing joy from this world. Christ knows we need it.
