Went to see this last night. BRILLIANT @lizkingsman. Very very very funny especially if you're a woman aged between 14 and 100. Or a man aged between 14 and 100 tbf. It's on for a few more weeks so GO because it'll make you laugh in dreary January. Also pictured is me, embarrassed, seconds after walking into Damian Lewis in Soho with my really cool rucksack because I decided to walk from Crystal Palace into town yesterday like some sort of mountaineer (?!). And then I was embarrassed at my Duke of Edinburgh get-up all over again when I saw Gillian Anderson sitting in the row behind me at the show. And THEN I got my phone nicked. A big old night, in summary.

BEHOLD the full longlist. Absolutely bonkers company. Also, 16 very splendid presents for someone else OR yourself when you’re sick of arguing with your fam/playing Scrabble/unloading the dishwasher for the 736th time over the next couple of weeks 🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄🧑‍🎄

Beyond beyond beyond beyond BEYOND excited that Did You Miss Me? has been longlisted for the @cwipprize! Was genuinely walking home from Sainsbury’s carrying the usual clutch of glamorous items (milk, toothpaste, Domestos) when I found out, and cried because it’s such a lovely, lovely thing to be included in. Very kind of all the judges, very thrilling to be in the company of so many funny women. Laughs needed more now than ever, I reckon?!
