I loved being invited onto the latest Wedding Mayhem podcast. Lively and convivial conversation about weddings, and why no two are the same. A few stories and career twists.

I’ve just bought one. X
No - I have now though. Thanks for sharing. It’s brilliant. x
This clip of my late Dad came up in my timeline as we remember Ernie Wise who passed on this day in 1999. My memory is arriving home from school to find our kitchen wrecked and the Stripper music on repeat at vol 11!

My Mum would have been 91 today. I hope she’s having a party up there with my Dad x
Probably not. Connections, connections. I often wonder if Harry S Pepper had a Lonely Hearts Club Band. x
Mrs M has now received 43 valentine cards from me. #myvalentine x
Dubrovnik is delightful. Especially out of season. #dubrovnik #croatia #citybreak
I’m a huge Dylan fan. I went prepared not to worry about historical,personal, or chronological inaccuracies for the sake of the narrative. It’s a film after all. If the character of Suze was her name in the film, her memory would be hard done by. That’s why the character’s name is Sylvie Russo.

I wonder how Martians feel about illegals coming from another planet.
Best to re-think Greenland Don.

A candle burns at home for my beautiful Mum who left us 16 years ago today. Her memory still shines brightly and always will. xx
It’s over 1,000km from Berlin to Paris
There’s now a direct daytime train between them, that takes 8 hours and costs just €59. Leave at 10am, arrive 6pm.
And… it’s just 1% the carbon emissions of the equivalent flight

Suella Braverman tells LBC that Italy have "built a wall" on the "land border between Italy and Turkey" and insists that "I've been to see it"
Badinage:
n- not serious, fool, banter
Badenage
Compound of “Badenoch” and “Farage” meaning the same.

A real photo and perfect metaphor heading into 2025.
Clearly a theme. Seeing it this afternoon. IMAX screening.
It’s been some year. Have a happy, healthy and fulfilled 2025. It seems apt to quote Bob Dylan:
“You should always take the best from the past, leave the worst back there and go forward into the future.”

A light on Christmas past. My first one. The Beatles topped the charts with I Want To Hold Your Hand, and tv’s were very different. My Grandma Trixie smiles on x #christmas
Just listened to this excellent podcast with @lewisgoodall.com and @emilythornberry.bsky.social Insightful, engaging, and human. Keep on keeping on.
Just listened to this on an afternoon walk. Superb. Insightful, engaging and very human. Excellent.
It’s up (so to speak).
Serious challenges for serious times. @andrewrawnsley.bsky.social always stimulates the “grey matter” on Sunday morning. As usual, he’s bang on the money.
🙏🙏🙏❤️ ⚒️
Lovely John Lennon quote:
“When I was 5 years old my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I was at school they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, I told them they didn’t understand life.”
Hustle, bustle. Today would have been my folks’ 64th wedding anniversary. I’ll celebrate for them xx
