In the gym Listening to @RestIsPolitics and @RoryStewartUK says plainly ‘I was wrong’. I nearly dropped a dumbbell on my toe. How odd and unusual it is to hear that simple honesty from a politician… perhaps tho a big part of why he is trusted?

The Bee Beard. The ultimate show of faith in your hard-working girls. It was loud, ticklish but I didn’t get stung even once, and left with an even greater appreciation of these little things that make the world work. From Secret Life of Bees, on @channel5_tv 22nd May 9pm.

Made the mistake of listening to the Isle of Wight song while exercising. Dropped a weight on my toe due to the snorting (mine)
