I am a creature of habit. Which is great because you always know what’s gonna make you feel like yourself again - e.g. reading a good play in a train station restaurant 🥹🎭🍝🍹🍸🍷
There are some people working on the bar here that are prob too young to have seen the OG PP&T which is insane because I’m only 12 x
Public apology to everyone at work, the pot wash is gonna be slow today bc Denise is spitting bars and I keep needing a minute to process them
Probably gonna go through my whole life feeling the same level of excitement every time a new Denise Gough interview drops 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🔥🔥🔥
The fact that you can use Klarna to pay for drama school auditions is so funny to me??? Genuinely love that it makes it convenient and accessible but still… Klarna pay in 3 pending: a top from ASOS and a RADA audition..? 🤪
Festive things from this week: these iconic cakes in my local, last 7am shift before Christmas, cosy vibes in my favourite station pub 🎄
Me, after doing one slightly up-market thing at work like making a champagne cocktail or serving the odd A-lister: I wonder if I could send my CV to San Vicente bungalows…
Whenever I go for a hospitality interview I channel Gabé Doppelt
People talk about how crap it is to work in hospitality, which I now believe is because Regents Park Open Air Theatre has taken ALL the best bits. Best non-acting job I have ever had 🥲 Get me back on that bar..
Feel like pure shit just want the Brigadoon bagpipes back
The viewing material escalated to violent/racial slur content… felt like a terrible person for feeling too vulnerable to take him on… The waitress was like ‘ummm well you could have asked him to turn it down if it made you uncomfortable’ BABES
(‘what kind of interviews are they giving these boat people when they get here’) and now it’s put me off my food and I could literally cry? Ffs
I’d been the only person dining in this North LDN Italian restaurant for a while (idk why, it’s lovely). Then an older middle aged white man enters, also dining alone (it’s fine, it’s fine). He orders his food, but has suddenly decided to watch some kind of right wing news VERY loudly on his phone..
you’re actually giving Rao vibes
Sorry but you look SO cool here omg 🔥

No I am not "checking my work messages while on holiday", I am relaxing in the
No but sorry this is the number one choon forever no contest youtu.be/fCOBeXELz-s?...
I just think that’s so fun that he made a whole rap song about having two phones!!! Like, yes!!! If I was in position to have a ‘work’ phone and and a ‘personal’ phone (or, rather - ‘one for the bitches and one for the dawgs’) I would absolutely feel like a BALLER
Remember years ago when there was that trend where people recited popular songs in the style of Shakespeare monologues - see I never really got that trend - I overthought it, like ‘but do we implement the iambic?!!!’ etc. But now I want it back because I’d like to perform ‘2 Phones’ by Kevin Gates.
I’ve had some very nice picantés (no not at soho house thank you!!!) and now I just have such a deep love and appreciation for everyone on this rammed, first off-peak train
Also miss you I keep wondering if you’ll fancy a little London vacation in the near future 😄
Ohhh… he wants ✨connections✨… to that I would say… sit at the bar in Pace in Laurel Canyon… order yourself a lovely cedar block salmon and a red wine.. and have a good natter to the person next to you. Do the same at Pips on La Brea but with a cigar. And there you go. Connected ✨
Ever since I created this account I’ve been trying to resist solely posting ✨nostalgia✨ but somehow that’s all I can ever think to post?! Anyway I watched Sofia Coppola’s ‘Somewhere’ for the first time and the SECOND I heard the intro of this song I immediately welled up?! youtu.be/GSXAy27afcY?...
‘LOVE YOURSELF. IT’S ALL LIES’ - that’s it. That’s the extent of tips I would have.
I think we should make a wlw version of this ! youtu.be/5aCa3Tf_tDA?...

Do M&S not do the little train journey-sized wine bottles with the cup attached anymore? I know, I know, you’re right - probably terrible for the environment. But…
