Lovely to see Emilie Sande perform on #GrahamNortonShow again last evening. I was there in the studio for her first appearance all those years ago when I turned up to go on the Red Chair. You can read all about it, read all about it.

A friend moaned being held at Singapore šŸ‡øšŸ‡¬ Airport for 3 hours without the chance to refresh waiting for his flight. I told him my father aged 18 was captured at the fall of Singapore, held in Changi jail, and worked on the Burma railways as a prisoner of war. Perspective.

Apparently the airports are in chaos due to a ā€œcandidate shortageā€; if you haven’t got staff just say so. And don’t tell me you have ā€œcompensation and benefitā€ managers. You pay wages and salaries - you don’t ā€œcompensate people for their time at workā€. No USA speak please.

Surely the ballot paper for the Tory Party leader (aka the next Prime Minister) would have assisted the nation if it had a third option of ā€œ NEITHER OF THE ABOVE - MUST TRY HARDERā€

The new Monopoly board game has 3 major changes. 1. If you play on certain days of the week the rail stations are closed by strikes 2. Now you don’t go to jail but are held on remand 3. The Utility Companies can bankrupt every else on the board- including Mayfair and Park Lane

Just a bit of useful media billing advice NEVER go for the Virgin Media ā¤ļø supposed deal where they bring in your Netflix account under their billing with the promise that ā€œnothing will changeā€ šŸ˜‚ Nothing but an administrative shambles more like (what’s new I hear you ask!).

I was amazed when my wife told me she was going to see James Blunt at the Royal Albert Hall. It turns out the ticket was free. That explains everything šŸ˜‚

Good grief. A Prime Minister who keeps his head down throughout and has to read the words from the service sheet of ā€œI Vow to Thee My Countryā€. Message to The PM (politician of any party) Stand up straight, look forward and sing like you mean it.
