@mcd_productions could someone on site please remove the barriers that are blocking access across the top path in Fairview Park. Second weekend in a row they haven’t been taken down at night as they should be. Also there are railings hanging over paths that could be a hazard.

Amn’t on here much anymore but it would feel remiss not to post today as I have done every year now for 12 years.

She’s maybe 15? As a rescue it’s hard to know for sure, and she may be slowing down, but she’s still the everloving light of my life.

Happy gotcha day Flee 💛✨

A splendid afternoon yesterday spent with the best people @ChapterOneByMV, and what a cracking lunch - so good in every detail. Impeccable, elegant and delicious 🤩

[Host @hostandcompany]

The most gorgeous lunch yesterday @ChapterOneByMV where @ViljanenMickael is cooking at the very tiptop of his game, truly sensational.

Thanks to Juba, Paul and the whole team for a lovely few hours of absolute perfection 👌🏽🥂✨

One of the best things I’ve ever eaten. Worth the trip to London for it alone. The epitome, the paragon, the ne plus ultra of crème caramels at Bouchon Racine.

Happy 11th Gotcha Day to the inscrutable Flee, the exquisito Fleezer Japaneezer of the Malteser eyes. The sweetest and gentlest, the goofiest and zoomiest, still chasing her favourite squeaky pig like a pup, despite her grand old age. Another year at the heart of my world 🤍

CDMX’s @masalaymaiz and my ma’s turkey consommé — some of the best things I ate this year…

@katymcguinness Maydan was fantastic when I was there earlier this year - high energy, dramatic, electrifyingly delicious. Massive open fire at the heart of it, and an exceptional wine and drinks list. Great place.

Important Thread - Please read!

There is a first time for everything, and unfortunately, this is the first time in 17 years, that MADRA have had to put up an appeal of this nature. But desperate times, require desperate measures. 1/3

Love to see it 💚
