@cupie_doll That’s the best I could do! No idea otherwise

@icod @anna_bobs First day of sun today and we have been off for 8 days 😔

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@icod Nope. Meanwhile we are not exactly threatened with heat north of the border

@cupie_doll Best trip of the year! 💯

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

Genuinely thrilled that I’ve made the cut for the Alton towers school trip again this year. Competition is fierce and we are only taking 1 bus this year.

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@cupie_doll It was made by my pal bits so good isn’t it?

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@kirstieh It should do the amount of WA girls who read it in class/chapel

To mark the 100th anniversary of Winnie-the-Pooh, The Queen has gifted the New York Public Library a new Roo.

Made by Merrythought, the new Roo travelled from Buckingham Palace to New York aboard Their Majesties’ flight!

“Just the other day” 🤪 nailed it!

[MAGA Kitty @SaveUSAKitty]

King Charles II (and no, Ilhan Omar that’s not Eleven! 😆🙄) addresses Congress 🇬🇧 :

KING CHARLES: “Now, as you may know, when I address my own Parliament at Westminster, we still follow an age-old tradition and take a Member of Parliament hostage, holding him or her at Buckingham Palace until I am safely returned. These days, we look after our guests rather well, to the point that they often do not want to leave. I don't know, Mr Speaker, if there were any volunteers for that role here today.

As President Trump himself observed during his state visit to Britain last autumn, the bond of kinship and identity between America and the United Kingdom is priceless and eternal.
It is irreplaceable and unbreakable.

This is a city which symbolises a period in our shared history, or what Charles Dickens might have called a tale of two Georges. The first President, George Washington, and my five times great-grandfather, King George III. King George, as you know, never set foot in America.

And please rest assured, ladies and gentlemen, I am not here as part of some cunning rearguard action. The founding fathers were bold and imaginative rebels with a cause. 250 years ago, or as we say in the United Kingdom, just the other day, they declared independence.”

@icod Thank you! I knew you’d come up trumps…x

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

Looking for some good podcasts for drive to work. Any suggestions @icod?

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@icod And does anyone actually care?

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@icod @SoVeryBritish I use them too. Much nicer and no rustly packet noise.

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@icod Also the rewriting of fiction like it is absolute 💯 fact

[Catriona Hepburn @mrshavers]

@icod Absolutely!

Hi @whitefoxoffish ! I am trying to order a hoodie for my daughter and it says that the welcome offer (20% discount) won’t work with the items I have tried. Please help? Many thanks

[Harry, Meghan’s Spare @ViQueenie]

⛔️ WARNING! Cringe-level, off the charts!

Meghan Markle’s Holiday Special: How to Turn Christmas into a Masterclass in Narcissism.

The guest list. I recognized exactly one person: her longtime partner-in-grime, “Kelly”. Everyone else? Random celebs who apparently owed her a favor. The standout non-invite: Serena Williams, Meghan’s supposed BFF. Instead we got Naomi Osaka, who is lovely but delivered all the energy of a sloth. If Serena couldn’t be bothered to show up for cookies and forced crafting, that says everything.

The special opens with Meghan teaching us how to decorate a Christmas tree. Yes, really. The one activity literally every person on Earth has done since childhood now requires a tutorial from the Duchess of DIY. She coos over ornaments like she personally invented the concept of sentimental traditions. Groundbreaking!

Fun fact: this was filmed over a year ago because her late beagle Guy makes an appearance. Nothing screams “thriving Netflix deal” like dusting off footage. RIP Guy.

Hygiene highlights:
• Hair swinging freely over every bowl of food she’s mixing. Touch, push back, touch again. Repeat. Yuk!
• Constantly wearing jewelry while kneading dough and fingering ingredients.
• Sticking her fingers in her mouth mid-prep, then right back into the food. Bon appétit, girls!
I can’t!

Every other sentence is some variation of “I think the girls are going to love this,” as if you don’t gush hard enough…..

Alcohol flows, but are we surprised?

British Christmas traditions are referenced despite the fact she spent, what, two Christmases max in the UK?

Her handwriting! Ahhhh! those loopy, pretentious letters!!! slapped on every single craft, gift tag, and place card. It’s not an aesthetic; it’s a branding hostage situation! Please make it stop!

The crafting segments are painful. She corrals grown adults (including a four-time Grand Slam champion) like they’re preschoolers who’ve never held a glue gun and talks to them in that breathy, whispering baby voice. “Now we’re going to make a little bow… isn’t that gorgeous?” FFS!

Gift-wrapping tutorial: because apparently us plebs have been winging it wrong for centuries.

ZERO! ZERO! of the products she used the entire episode actually appear on her shopping website. This was by far the dumbest decision she made.

Harry’s cameo at the end is pure ratings desperation. An awkward kiss on camera to remind the world they’re still pretending, followed by Meghan in, the infamous green “stolen” dress she was called out for keeping after a photo shoot. She has balls!

In summary: an hour of watching a woman celebrate herself while low-key insulting her guests, breaking every basic food-safety rule, and treating the most basic holiday traditions like they’re advanced-level Duchess secrets.
Exhausting!
