Any recs for British romantic comedy books? I don't know where to start looking

Met a wildly attractive woman. We got chatting, she said 'I'll see you again.' But I won't see her again. The chances are so slim! 😭

🤨: Iris, are you all right? You look like you're living the central premise of the 2001 John Cusack film 'Serendipity'

👨🏽: 🤷🏽‍♂️

I invited my friends from different friend groups to an evening of cocktails. This meant I had to explain how we all know each other: From being gay. We know each other from being gay 🏳️‍🌈

Went to the Tate Modern's Nigerian Modernism exhibition. There was so much to see, so much diversity.

It did make me feel as if my writing isn't Nigerian/African/Black enough (Yes, this post is about writing).

I am a member of the African diaspora. How do I show it?

St Paul's Cathedral and a red London bus

Another day of touristing around

#London

I love England, but terfism is very mainstream here

A tourist stall selling I heart London t-shirts and union flag scarfs, etc.

I ❤️ London

Apricot seeds!

Right now my little heart is full of love. For you, especially. Love you! 🩷🩷🩷

Touristing about :)

I should have tagged in Sadiq Khan

Things I've missed about London:

1. My friends and family
2. omg, the public transport is so good

My cat is on holiday. I miss her so badly :(

So spicy! 🥵

I doubted the mustardiness of this bagel. Now the mustard gods have smote me. The tears are streaming down my face. It has been so long since I've had English mustard

I feel like, when you order a bagel with salt beef and gherkins, the mustard is implied?

Oh no, I've eaten all my train snacks.

These look so good! 😍

From Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse Vol. 4: The Seven Ghosts Mickey finds Goofy, sitting in an armchair and wearing a suit, looking glum. Mickey: Gosh! What's th' matter, Goofy? Are ya sick or somethin'?? Goofy: Nope! I'm just plain happy - a-settin' here thinkin' beautiful thoughts!

London friends, you're invited to cocktails when I get there!

I am going on holiday tomorrow, and I've done almost all of my tasks to get ready!
