In everything she did from music to acting to giving away 304m books to just being herself, she was faultless.

Rarely upset by celebrities passing but this one is very very sad.

80 seems no age for a women who seemed so vibrant so recently

Whether you commit a crime first or not, driving the wrong way down a dual carriageway or motorway in order to avoid a police chase and then uploading the footage onto Tik Tok is the same.

Some of the Irish lads had previously posted videos of with the driver holding a mobile and videoing the blue ...

The one in Ireland definitely WAS Tik Tok related so given the proximity and similarity in circumstances, it's not surprising that the media went there.

Jimmy Carr is perhaps one of entertainments greatest Paradox's (if that's the correct term)

His stage persona is very crass, at times, very cruel (although I'll be honest, I find him funny). But if you seem him talking seriously about anything, (see for example, the Steve Bartlett pod cast), he's ...

Electric Honda Prelude - no pic but the same colour combo as this library pic...

As more and more electric cars seem to be trending towards the boxy and sharp lined, I though it was quite a nice looking thing ...

100% Dave - Kids these days have no sense of consequence until it's too late...

I remember when I brought the painter round for the quote, I was dreading it but he just went "Yeah, no worries, we'll cover that and it wont come back through - no problem"

Cue massive sign or relief

We got pretty lucky to be honest - there wasn't any serious damage to the floorboards and they dried pretty quickly. the Airing cupboard was a disaster zone when the tank and handwear was removed to I painted it, put laminate flooring down and converted it into a storage place for vacuums, brushes ...

I feel your pain DJ...

We moved out of our main family home so I could do some house doctoring before it was sold (We rented for a while). I was travelling over 4 or 5 nights a week after work and painting, decorating, sorting the garden etc.

We then went on our Summer Holiday and when I returned ...

A House through Time

If you don't know the format, David Olusoga hosts and each series features one house and looks at the lives of the people who lived there over 200 or 300 years.

This series is about a 5 story building on Calton Hill in Edinburgh split into 2 separate houses - the bottom 2 ...

So, tail between their legs then...

No surprise really, given everything they tried in the US failed. I predict Megan will give it a year and then go back to the states alone.

I wonder if this is a sign that the king really isn't that well???

More a general observation

With any of these types of Trump stories (Or any of the current Megalomaniac's - Musk, Bezos et al) , I often wonder how much of his success, or indeed failure, comes down to them exclusively or more, the people they hire. I mean I know the buck ultimately stops with them but still.
