Could Meghan Markle become a real housewife of Hove? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I’m not talking about Carrie Bradshaw’s latest on-off relationship — yes, I’m rewatching Sex and the City. Rather Meghan Markle and her own Mr Big. They’ve picked the Cotswolds. And just like that, everyone will be taking their house off the market — except David Gilmour. Carrie, the patron saint of columnists, and me — we’re like that. Late at night. We’ve both maxed out our credit cards. Eat greasy Chinese takeout. Use the cooker for storage. And we prefer the air we can see to the fresh varie
Are you a Miranda or a Fleabag? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I was in bed the other week when I rolled over and told my wife I had a confession to make. Probably not the best time or place. “I prefer Fleabag to Miranda.” Had a camera been there, I’d have pulled a face at it. I still feel guilty. I don’t have a hyphen to my name, but it must mean I have a posh gene somewhere. Yes, we’re going back a few years I know. But bear with bear with – I’m feeling nostalgic for the 2010s. That decade of Conservative stability. Don’t laugh – we only had two and a qua
My headâs been spinning with Andy popping up in bus depots and supermarkets (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Choked over the Daily Mail recently? In my case, it wasnât caused by news of family members moving closer to home. I'd bought a gluten free egg sandwich by accident. Didn't see those two tiny words written in frilly script under the words egg and sandwich on the box until it was too late. They stuck in my throat I can tell you. No wonder Andy chose an Iron Maiden ringtone to accompany his emergency alert. Greensleeves wouldn't have cut it. Iâm no stranger to emergencies, and could have done
Forget political drama, even an eclipse can't shake up Patcham (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Is that it? I mean, in the past a solar eclipse was life-changing. Back in 585 BC, one eclipse was enough for the Medes and Lydians – as you know, basically Iranians and Turks – to cease fighting and agree a peace. If only today's supreme leaders were as interested in stargazing as they are navel-gazing. The only bits of excitement we’ve had since – politically speaking – were Farage beating a bin – both failed – and Andy texting us out of the blue to tell us he’d got back from his hols. Both ep
If I became Prime Minister, I know exactly what I'd do first (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What's the first thing you'd do if you got a new job? Splash out on a new suit? Not in this weather. Get a tattoo? If you have any space left. I know – go on holiday. Get a couple of weeks under your belt first – if you wear one. You won't have much to come back to if you've just started, will you? Make sure you leave your ‘out of office’ on. Yes, there's a danger your new swivel chair will disappear, but someone will pick up the slack in your absence. You don't want to look too eager, do you? B
