It’s international woman’s day and I am an international woman! Why not consider spending a couple of quid on my book? It has creative swearing and a big dead naked guy! #booksky

Happy World Book Day! My new book is a kindle deal this month if that's your vibe. It's a funny murder mystery with ghosts and pro-wrestling and an angry terrier. I think you'll like it, it may distract you from the horrors. www.amazon.co.uk/Grapples-Wra...

Spice Girls Impulse Body Spray - for those moments when you want to smell posh, and also simultaneously sporty, scary, ginger and, erm, 'baby'. Woe betide the man you've never met before that suddenly gives YOU flowers...

This episode was a hoot. My favourite one so far, better even than the one on Where Eagles Dare.

Do yourself a favour, avoid everyone's emergency podcasts about the Royal Sh*tshow.

Listen to this instead. Start your weekend with a smile.
