It is also basically the set of Natalie Portman’s Miss Dior advert. Without the helicopter.

Hey now. Don’t blame us Europes for the many groomsman fuck party tradition. The groom is Israeli but she is from Chicago and having a DOZEN AND A HALF identically dressed people stood around you at wedding is an American thing. Groomsmen is an American thing. Wedding party 20 bridesmaids like all my girlfriends…

It is like a Woody Allen film plot, right there.

It’s like they’ve all quietly agreed to play along.

Yes, in the US that seems to be so. But we in the Celtic ancient lands* (I’m in Scotland) are misty and mysterious and time travel and ghosts and haunted and feelings and spirituality and nature and pipe music and knitwear and and and ... we know you love that shit and grateful you spend money on it. That is a good…

She plays a very Olivia character but with an edge. Bill Paterson is AMAZING as Papa Fleabag too. He usually plays gentle doctors in things these days so good to see him with things to do that aren’t quaint.

It is a really good examination of grief and how it can turn younger people inside out.

She isn’t horrible - just has poor judgement, self importance and a lot of regret. It is just sad reallt. I have heard a few people I know (I’m in UK) say “i am Fleabag” in a middle-class angsty way. Of course they aren’t, a lot of her stuff is exaggeration for effect. But it is exactly the kind of sad nonsense…

No probs. And yes, you are right. I am not surprised since we have had to deal with it. But people are trying to get things moving. We will all appreciate it.

The spouses of the deposed Royals who don’t require to do any work or have to represent a country are THE WORST. And they earn their money from Hello! deals.

All the people you mention are a good 2 generations before Hugh came along with his 80s bouffant and inspired a new generation. 3rd wave even. That was more my point. He did it when it was very unfashionable. He isn’t posh but he cultivated an image. Others played a type on stage but not always in life. Saying you…

Good to be reminded that LOTS of places are in danger and need improvement.

Safe to say your FB pal is a massive idiot. :)

Funny because the money from anti crowd from the US comes from all religions. Including the “Scotch-Irish” mental people style Protestant evangelicals who are more orange than green. They all have this view of Ireland as a sacred origin land of magical white people and values so must be saved. Or interfered with.

They go to the UK. My home area of Liverpool has been hosting and helping Irish women since the 1960s and before. “Going to Liverpool” was a euphemism and still it because of a lot of Irish women do it daily. It is an hour on a plane. Also, North and West Wales and South West Scotland because ferries. There are…

It is a travesty that you are grey, missus! 7

Hillary may not tick all the boxes but at least she understand comedy and what it is for and when to use it. This means she has a greater understanding of social nuance. Trump would not only not do this - he would not GET THIS. His idea of funny is watching poor people struggle and fall over, often literally. They…

Only they get defended in these stories as “brilliant”.

Yes, but what does Stephen Fry have to do with this?

Also this is the fucking SUN. Scum.
