I sold Hugh Grant a pair of white socks while working a single day as a temp at Ralph Lauren.
Went a few weeks back and found it thoroughly underwhelming. Everything felt rushed and chaotic, and the waiter kept saying they’d run out of this and that and that the kitchen couldn’t cope. It was 8pm on a school night. Glad you had a good time!
From funding decades of seed and soil research to financing other tournaments around the world - how Wimbledon is almost single handedly keeping grass court tennis alive.

My mum answers most messages with “Ok…” which I find very confusing tbh
I liked it 🙃
A budget of €20mn. A staff of 20. Yet Norway’s fearless “fish hippies” have beaten some of Europe’s biggest clubs on the way to tonight’s Europa League semi final against Spurs.

Wonder how Chinese TV manufacturer Hisense is feeling about its Club World Cup sponsorship today.
The latest from @banxtoons.bsky.social
Have been rewatching it recently. I didn’t notice the first time how it’s just one endless male fantasy. Betty an intriguing character that they then don’t know what to do with. Women all suffer endlessly. I enjoyed some of the business stuff, but it soon gets dull, repetitive and unrewarding.
I saw Horses for Slaughter play the main stage at Reading in 1999.

Trump is imposing a 10% tariff on the Heard and McDonald Islands.
The Heard and McDonald Islands are uninhabited.
Superb obit here of my friend and former colleague Gwen Robinson by @edwardluce.bsky.social - she was one of a kind. Probably had the widest network of contacts of any journo I have known. Lost far too soon. www.ft.com/content/ec0b...

A lengthy press release. An hour of presentations. Yet absolutely zero mention of the people who actually own the club.

Manchester to London on a Sunday. Standing room for 3+ hours and no functioning toilet. British infrastructure at its finest.
The US owner, the local auditor and the French regulator of Olympique Lyonnais are at loggerheads over whether other team’s players count as “shared assets”. The fight is setting the limits of what multiclub ownership is about.
