I think the targeted emails aren't as good as they should be, musical yes, cheaper yes but...
"Mary Poppins
Family Night performances are every Wednesday with an earlier start time of 19:00 and cheaper tickets*. Book now, spit spot!
*Family Night performances are at 19:00 on Wednesdays. Ticket prices from £18.25 compared to ticket prices from £24.25 on other performances"

I looked this up to quibble about the hyphen* and saw this: "Cisgender is a term for people whose gender identity matches the sex that they were assigned at birth. For example, someone who identifies as a woman and was assigned female at birth is a cisgender woman." And the word "assigned" really bothers me and I'm finding it difficult to explain why, not because I'm worried about being labelled anything but because it seems the wrong word. *Not Hymen, hur hur, am I rite? |

Fat bap alert!
Just demolished this extensive corporation... the drink is a Moscow mule, cheese is Parmesan, wrong time of year to get fresh basil, so bunged in a spoonful of pesto and garnished with flat leafed parsley etc
It might have started as a dogs dinner, but it ended up as mine
Top, as they say, banana. |

You are not wrong Felice. Also, who does the 'assignation'? I bet it's that fraud Dr Shenguin. |

Top, as they say, banana. Looks lovely and you're welcome. We're forgoing the pasta for a crunchy roll*. Is that real butter on the baguette? If so I'm jealous, we're never organised enough to get it out to soften.* *No innuendo. |

5 sheets of lasagne pasta are in the mix, and yes that is real butter. Salted of course.
Top tip... get a butter dish and keep at room temp. Also a spare pat in the fridge. Last resort lop off a chunk and ding in the micro for 5-10 seconds but there's a fine line between spreadable and liquid.
I had seconds, and might sleep for a while now. #GrandDad

Susceptible to attractive authority figures as I am, I will probably try it. |

I would have thought Lurpack would be better for you; it's always soft.** **No innuendo; I mean it's ready to spread ... |

You're not alone in this. Just call a spade a spade. The youth of today are basically out to make any sort of conversation a minefield. |

No I don't agree with this at all, the "youth" aren't trying to make anything difficult, they're just talking/thinking in a different way to what the older* people are. *i.e. Us** **Most of us, actually how old is a youth now? Is Baby a Youth? |

Absolutely horrid out.
The BBC weather app is describing it as light rain & a fresh breeze.
They are lying.

Also while I'm here, for Chumbles a non Lucy Worsley* version, basically a recorded track dubbed over live performances. *Big fan of Lucy, though the Preferred Mammal and I try to guess when in any programme she dresses up. <edit>Interestingly on their first tour of England they had all their gear stolen in Birmingham |

John Snow's Very Hard Questions is very disappointing. I was hoping for something in the Only Connect mode, but it's more like one of those daytime quizzes where the point of the show is not for the teams to answer questions, but to spend 5 minutes per question loudly discussing whether or not they know the answer. Like an even shitter Eggheads.
4 stars. Back to repeats of The Chase.

Everything is toxic, it's just a question of dosage. Now pass the brandy, it's almost time for my elevenses. As every Biology undergrad will be able to tell you; oxygen is toxic. It's just a question of cells being evolved to deal with it. Now pass me the rum |
