Lucy implored me to embrace spontaneity. Accordingly, I have pencilled it in for Thursday.

There’s a meal in our house called Mr Scrummy. I invented it when my two eldest were 4 and 6 and money was snug at the end of the month. The kids are still obsessed with it to this day. Mr Scrummy has a sort of sentinent ommipresence in the household. We refer to him as ‘him’.

When I sit beside you on the bus, know that I am reading what you are reading, and I am rapidly forming a judgement.

My girlfriend dumped me because I'm going bald.
That's hair loss.
