I write things...

I haven’t done Twitter for a while, but this is worth a retweet. Thank you to @michaelhogan for the wonderful words x

[Michael Hogan @michaelhogan]

Why do people buy "green milk"? What are "STs"? And why can nobody spell avocado? I wrote about the new exhibition that treats shopping lists as works of art https://t.co/q148aCMATb

@joe_hales_ Good to meet you too! Very nice book. Very small world!

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@BikeLove @BBCWomansHour @sainsburys I hadn’t really thought what to do next with them but that might be just the thing… thank you!

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@Jean1709 @BBCWomansHour Funnily enough, I’m really not one..

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@BikeLove @BBCWomansHour @sainsburys I’m with you. That’s the beauty and the poignancy of them. It’s strange how so few words can conjure up this feeling.

Are you a to-do list maker? Or does the prospect of one stress you out?

As part of our bank holiday special, author Joanna Nolan & shopping-list collector @LucyIrelandGray discuss the how & whys of lists & their roles in life ⬇️

@LZellas @jeffprad1 🤣

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@jeffprad1 This is a personal fave in my funny little collection; it’s stuff for a legit medical procedure apparently.. 🥴

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@MrBoothY6 Let’s face it, whatever the answer, the fact remains that it’s just very annoying

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@ct2ca Indeed there are! Glad you liked it! the collection is moving to my home town in June. Seems only right that the locals whose lists I’ve snaffled should get the chance to spot their own..

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@jonolan1205 Am I too late?? I’ve been away and totally out of range. I’m more than happy to help. Fire away.. (are you able to DM me the questions?)

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@daithitoms I think this about sums it up..

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

Question: anyone know the reason the apple snooze is 9, and not 10 mins, long? Seems random..

[Maggie Gee @maggiegeewriter]

Found this exemplary shopping list abandoned at Ramsgate’s Waitrose checkout, shaming our own illegible shambles of scribble. Look & learn, 2023 shoppers! Is your list #worthyofWaitrose?

@henryspil @pylonofthemonth @GrimArtGroup @WeHaveWaysPod @GreatWarGroup Pylon = Greek word for gate/gateway. So from one year to the next..

I’m all for biodegradable wrappings n all, but there was something rather lovely in Quality Street looking like a tub of jewels, in separating the coloured foil from the cellophane and soothingly smoothing it flat…

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@DaveMartin46 I really like this. Building that picture behind the words is what, for me, it’s all about. And, I guess, for you too. Thank you for sharing it.

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@DaveMartin46 Is it possible to see/read it?

[Lucy Ireland Gray @LucyIrelandGray]

@salihughes And what was with her one tone wardrobe?
