England are through to the final of Euro 2024. The Tories have been voted out. I’d just like to suggest to the person with the magic lamp that they use their last wish very wisely.

Just realised that in only 2 years time it’ll be 30 years since Three Lions (Football’s Coming Home) was released, so in 2026 it’ll be the same time difference between England winning the World Cup and the song release and the song release and the present date, and that’s made me feel quite ancient.

Apparently it’s 9 years today since I discovered that adding googly eyes to the tap on a wine box makes it look like Shaun the Sheep.

It’s lovely taking the dogs for a walk and enjoying the beauty of nature you see along the way.

In this heat, pretend you're on holiday abroad by drinking beer at 8am and then going to Asda wearing a bikini and flip flops to buy 4 giant bags of crisps and a bottle of water.

I often see a woman in the park picking dandelions. I found out today she picks them for her 32 years old tortoise, Stanley, that her late husband bought her as a 17th wedding anniversary gift (the traditional gift for 17 years is shells) as she’d wanted a tortoise since she was a child.

Instead of an “Accountancy Apprenticeship”, I just accidentally told someone my daughter was doing an “Apprenticey Accountantship” and this is why I prefer staying at home, talking to my dogs, rather than interacting with people.

To all the dads on Father’s Day. I hope, today, that every light in an empty room is turned off and all thermostats are left where you set them.

I’ll be 48 in a few days and I’m still not ashamed to admit that, in the days leading up to my birthday, I get a certain amount of pleasure when I see food or drink packaging which has my birthday as its expiration date.

Don’t think I’ll be able to top meeting 4 dachshunds called Gary, Steve, Kevin and Dave in the park a couple of weeks ago, but I just met 2 schnauzer puppies called Sandra and Denise, which came a close second.

Overheard in card shop today. Assistant: You’ve got 3 cards. If you buy 4, you get 1 free. Anyone else you could get one for? Family? Friend? A neighbour? Very sweet looking little old lady: Oh, no thank you, dear. I’m not buying one for my neighbour. I hate that old cow.

No. Because it’s a toastie not a grilled cheese, so there’s no butter involved.

Stages of owning a toastie maker. 1. OMG! Just remembered we have a toastie maker. Why don’t we ever use it? 2. Find toastie maker. 3. Make tons of toasties. 4. Remember it’s a bugger to clean. 5. Get bored of toasties. 6. Put it back in cupboard. 7. 6 months later, repeat stage 1 etc.

You know how care homes for elderly people have dances where they play music from the residents youth. Just thinking what it will be like when us 90s kids are in homes and Jump Around causes 6 residents to break a hip and 3 to choke on their dentures trying to do the running man.

April Fool’s Day. A day where you shouldn’t trust anything you read or anything anyone says. So basically the same as every other day then.

I can see the logic in this, and it’s quite a clever idea for brides (as it is a bastard having a wee in a wedding dress), but I really can’t take it seriously after seeing the last photo.

I think it’s pretty diabolical that some people are saying the Princess of Wales’ Mother’s Day picture may have been photoshopped. It’s a beautiful photo.

If The Body Shop started selling Dewberry, Fuzzy Peach, Ananya and White Musk perfume oils again, then all the nostalgic women in their 40s/50s who would buy them could basically save the entire business.

Was watching a cooking video on Instagram but, sadly, I’ll never know how the recipe turned out, as when the guy referred to the smoked paprika as smokey pap pap I automatically threw my phone out of the nearest window in a blind rage.

Day 1 of healthy eating. SO good to be eating healthily again. I feel fitter and better in myself already. Bring it on! Day 4 of healthy eating. I miss cheese so much I want to cry. I’ve forgotten the taste of chocolate. Vegetables taste of sadness and resentment. I’ve never known such misery.

Shout out now to all the amateur drinkers who think, because it’s New Year’s Eve, they can suddenly cope with 9 pints of lager and 6 Jägerbombs and will be found in the early hours of 2024 lying face down in a bush and crying for their mum after shitting themselves.

Can you even call yourself a proper parent if you don’t spend the entire time when your family are opening presents on Christmas Day hovering around them on high alert with a bin bag to instantly gather up the discarded wrapping paper.
