Had some Norwegian family friends stay over this week. They brought us brown cheese and a cheese slicer as gifts, and we discussed how my friend kept his kids in a pram in the cold when they were babies. Are we/they a stereotype..? 👀
I shared this video on Instagram only a week ago, noting that I would watch it 100 times on repeat before scrolling on. What powerhouses. How grateful to have them in our lives and on our screens. What women! And Dame Maggie Smith, it goes without saying. What a loss. what a loss
Berlin Philharmoniker giving us Bruckner’s grand Symphony No. 5 at the Royal Albert Hall yesterday evening 🤩 we’ve vowed to do more London things now we’re back in London, and I think this definitely counts 🎶 #BBCProms
Sometimes I miss the randomness of living on posting; anything can happen which is all part of what makes it so much fun. Well, today in London my neighbour handed me a sea bass and two mackerel that he caught earlier in the Channel. Anyone got any good recipes?! 🤪
This did make our visits to the official venues in Marseille and Paris a right faff. It ultimately meant I was a) miffed at Visa, and b)spent so much less, as I only have a Mastercard and didn’t want another €5 glass of Sprite quite enough to withdraw cash every time 🤦🏻♀️
The fact you can only use @Visa at Olympic venues is such bs
I get they're a sponsor but it's causing such hold ups paying for things - everyone scrambling to borrow cards and getting turned away
It honestly makes me like Visa less

Cheering on @TeamGB from the sidelines of the triathlons this morning; waiting to see what the men can do after Potter’s bronze medal win and the impressive cohort of strong women who dealt deftly with road rash and all the falls on the slippery surfaces 🏊♀️ 🚴 🏃🏼 💪 🇬🇧 🥉
At what point does the Marseille tourist board offer me a job? A street full of plants and love letters and shutters and lamps en route to the boulangerie to pick up some croissants is exactly how I like to spend a Saturday morning ☀️
Explored Cassis today, including a boat tour around the incredible calanques and of course sampling some of the local vin 😋 I wouldn’t be mad if I had views like this in my life 🚤 🍷 💛
