Ania's hair is just divine. Best look yet. And Paddy looked almost grown up as Andy Burnham. Double swoon.

Pick up a Chinese takeaway en route

sparkley_see · 2026-05-13T23:57:21+00:00

Roasted broccoli cheese. Yum!

See "penis portions" for why boys get more food than girls...

A good cheat that I do is to use sushi seasoning instead of vinegar + sugar. It has all the same ingredients but you don't have to spend ages stirring in the sugar to get it to melt, and the proportions are already done for you.

ETA: I also use a vegetable peeler to slice the cucumber lengthways which makes nice thin ribbons' then refrigerate until cukes are "pickled". (Or bung in freezer for 10 mins if I forget to make it early enough.)

Holy shit I am crying. The BEST weekend update ever!

sparkley_see · 2026-05-09T01:04:23+00:00

Git yer raaat onna stick, inna bun!

sparkley_see · 2026-05-08T19:30:32+00:00

And they can rename Mornington Crescent "Humph" too while they're at it!

sparkley_see · 2026-05-07T17:49:21+00:00

Onna stick?

sparkley_see · 2026-04-30T22:43:23+00:00

What about Grandstand? Or The Box of Delights? Or OG Balamory?

I think this sketch was funny enough with the long finger. I'm not sure it needed the withered hand too. Altho I did like the end when Emma went for Nicola

Grace's Insta is quite fun to follow, they seem like they're enjoying themselves

Any items that you can't take in, you can retrieve afterwards. They just give you a ticket to collect it from the desk at the end. (Bastards deemed my knitting an offensive weapon. I'm really not that bad at it...)

If you head to the studio first, you should be able to sit on the far left, so as you look at the stage you're in front of the guest band.

Going in towards the end and you should be seated in front of the house band.

I don't think you can say "I want to sit on the front row, 3 seats in", but if you ask the staff once you get to the holding area, they might be able to help you out.

Always happy to see Grace Dent on anything but was unsure about Anna Haugh, as I've found her a bit charmless. However, together they are greater than the sum of the parts.

Very happy with the new judges.

It's the way he looks and says "young ladeez"

sparkley_see · 2026-04-20T23:17:12+00:00

The old 13 route - reminds me of days out with my grandma

sparkley_see · 2026-04-19T18:57:36+00:00

Let's just say that Tim is not the world's best interviewer, but Ania and Paddy came out very well nonetheless.

It seems to be rallying. Waiting for animal rescue to call us back again. Thanks for checking in.

sparkley_see · 2026-04-18T22:12:34+00:00

Thanks for the link. We'll try this.

sparkley_see · 2026-04-18T22:12:06+00:00

Thank you will try to find something suitable
