At a friend’s for dinner. House full of 17 year old girls going out to a Halloween party as some version of ‘gorgeous young woman in her underwear. ‘ 15 year old male cousin declares himself terrified 🤣🤣🤣

Men of Sussex not presenting well tonight. The one sat next to me on the train picked his nose and flicked it on the floor…right by my leg 🤮 and then I walked through a trail of pee from the guy pissing against the wall of house. 🤢 Bring on the bear. At least they make into the woods.

I find it hard to be loyal because of idiots like him.

Reform UK MP Danny Kruger suggests Muslims may find it hard to be loyal to Britain due to their faith - www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

I went to V&A east this morning. I left at about 12.30 and, due to a combination of not checking my return journey details and a death on the railway, I’m an hour’s bus ride away from home. There was no WiFi on any of my trains nor phone chargers. This has not been a good day. 😩

Something is beeping in my house. I can’t tell where it’s coming from (not a smoke alarm) but every time I stand up to find it, it stops. I think the cat may be trying to drive me mad.

As usual, when asked very gently to let women have the space, a man goes off. He continues aggressively in several posts to women. Not all men eh?

Sharing experiences is not action. Carrying rolling pins in the streets is action. Chasing misogynist trash down the street is action.

Prompted by an earlier conversation, I now have a mental list of “Museums That Really Reckon Themselves” which I will share once I’m retired and don’t have to earn a salary!!

Podcast on Sarah Everard. Senior Officer says police who manhandled women at the vigil were “in fear of their lives’. Sweet Jesus and we are expected to trust them 🤦🏼‍♀️

I just stopped the climbing out of a first floor window and he is fuming!! He’s stomping round my bedroom in the dark and I wouldn’t be surprised if he poos in my slippers. 🤦🏼‍♀️
