@sarajcox My nephew asked me to do ‘that magic thing with my arms’…he was referring to my wobbly bingo wings

You are strong for getting out of bed in the morning when it feels like hell. You are brave for doing things even though they scare you or make you anxious. And you are amazing for trying and holding on no matter how hard life gets.

@sarajcox Got a taxi, tram, walked across town & was in a pub for a good couple of hours before anyone asked about my odd shoes.

I’d been looking in a mirror before I left the house to see which looked best & then completely forgot to change one

@Baddiel I once said something that you accepted as very complementary. Tonight I’ve seen something, please accept what I said & put cherries on the top I think you’re even better 😁

Watch this it’s fascinating - I asked James Timpson what he’d do about prisons and sentencing if he was in charge. He believes only a third of prisoners in jail should definitely be there. He’s now in charge of prisons (but not sentencing).

17 Very British Problems with… Going to a Festival ⛺️🎵🥳

1. Agreeing to “just take it easy on the first night” - the most used and least-fulfilled promise in festival history.

2. Wondering why the teenage boy is guiding your car into the parking space as if you're driving an 80ft yacht.

3. Arriving quite late and having to pitch your tent on top of someone else’s tent.

4. Opening three lavatory doors in a row before deciding it would probably be more hygienic to just poo yourself.

5. Anxiously hoping that the beaded bracelet you bought from Next will show everyone how laid-back and bohemian you truly are.

6. Turning slightly away from your group for half a second then turning back to find they've all disappeared forever.

7. Taking half a day to examine all the food stands before spending £12 on a small box of chips.

8. Spending the whole of day two saying, “I’ll be OK in a minute”.

9. Being encouraged by your friend to go down the front and worrying there won't be adequate space to spread your picnic blanket.

10. Feeling thrilled that you'll now be able to tell people that you've watched your favourite band from only half a mile away.

11. Realising you're a little past your prime as you put your back out in the dance tent.

12. Accepting a “herbal” brownie in good faith, then spending six hours discussing the meaning of life with a discarded hat.

13. Waking up inside a tent with a core temperature approaching that of a roast chicken.

14. Washing yourself with wet wipes, meaning you now smell of body odour *and* wet wipes.

15. Constantly fighting against your overwhelming urge to suggest going home early.

16. Arriving home and trusting that the effects of four days of cider, gastritis and suspected trench foot will quickly be reversed by an effervescent multivitamin tablet.

17. Slipping into a hot bath when you arrive back home, instantly making the water resemble a thick oxtail soup.

- Same again next year! Check out the Very British Problems books if you enjoyed this: https://t.co/HL9997Sim2
