I work mostly in luxury travel, and there is absolutely no way whatsoever I can afford to travel luxuriously. I think "fancy" industries are mostly like that, aren't they?

My battery lasts for my working day without a problem (including two hours of commuting each way).

I thought that too, but now I am obsessed. It has become my primary goal each day to beat the previous day's record. I'm trying to convince everyone I know to get it too so I can walk more than them and feel smug.

I know nothing about how it works, BUT my battery has been fine — it doesn't seem to be draining any quicker.

Big Freedia is the BEST.

That was the part that "broke" me. "Antelope Valley" on "public transport"?

I am very, very lucky that I work in a Malcolm Tucker-vocabulary-accepting place.

My most hated thing that I see a lot recently is "covers", as in, "appears on the cover of" ("La Patrona covers Vogue", etc) — it's so bloody fake-jargon-y, it makes me want to throw magazines at walls.

Ha, I just shuddered at the thought of that — I made my own invitations, and therefore NEVER WANT TO SEE THEM AGAIN.

I give wedding gifts because I've never had to spend any money on attending a wedding (because I don't have money to spare for that); but yep, if it was costing me hundreds of pounds just to be there then I wouldn't have any left over for a present.

Our wedding was relatively really cheap, but it still freaked me out very badly to be spending that much money.

I'm totally in love with the amazing book ends that two (unrelated) friends chose of our registry for us, and I'm very excited to toast my sister and brother in law with the glasses and cocktail kit they got us once we can start using it. But apart from that, we were delighted to get loads of cash (well, loads by our

That happened to me — I wasn't going to do a registry (they're not as common yet in my land) but my husband's American and has a massive family who were all demanding our registry to be open immediately so they could get us engagement gifts, let alone wedding presents (and UK registries apparently don't open until the

Ha, that's what I was like with ours. The registry was full of stuff that wasn't very exciting, BUT it was all useful (we were both moving across the world so we had absolutely no household belongings).

Ahaha!

Yeah, I feel like banning "fuck ____" is just wretched, because surely people should be allowed to passive-agressively protest something, right? It's not like it's "rude", per se.

My entire home county, #Essex, is banned! (Might not be a bad thing…)

Are they just blocking anything with "sex" in, Scunthorpe Problem style? I'm intrigued as to why #beautyandessex would be banned…

That's so odd — this is the second time I've had someone mention Chris Evans today, after about a decade of forgetting he existed!
