Hi | She/Her
Today, we remember all those who lost their lives in the Aberfan disaster.
Around 9.15am on the 21 October 1966, Merthyr Vale Colliery tip collapsed and slid onto the village of Aberfan. 116 children and 28 adults were killed.
Mentally preparing to be an elder queer โข๏ธ at the Chappell Roan gig on Friday (yes I'm 30) (yes I got seated tickets) (yes I'm wearing comfortable shoes)
Just So You Know has turned 4.
It's a lush (vital, still timely) collection of essays โฅ๏ธ
I wrote one (mine is about Queen Nigella, crisps, and Valleys pubs).
You can buy it now - no audio version but I'll voicenote a bit of my essay to you for a bag of Frazzles.
"I'm proud to be working class, and I'm proud to be anti-racist working class as well!"

@DrSArmstrong Don't, I went to London the other day for work and smiled at someone. Realised my mistake when they looked at me like I'd kicked a puppy. They wouldn't last a minute in Ponty market!
Sometimes I think people exaggerate about the Valleys mentality of being friendly to everyone. Anyway, I've just had a five minute chat with a stranger about bin day and I've recommended him a product off tiktok shop.
