The hypocrisy of @piersmorgan in 4 screenshots. Iβd ask why his critical response to Meghan Sussex differs so drastically from the grace he gives to Eugenie and Beatrice, but we all know why. A disingenuous, bigoted, excuse of a βjournalistβ who wouldnβt last 2 secs in her shoes.

If youβre on social media trying to blame Meghan Markle for the allegations against Thomas Markle, I hope the women and children in your family stay FAR away from you.
That's nothing. I grew up living above a pub. Shared phone line. So I'd be on the phone to a friend and a drunk man would pick up the phone and tell me to hang up. Good times ππ
There was a time when your friends had to call your house just to talk to you.
Someone would yell your name from the kitchen, and you'd come running to grab the phone.
Then you'd stretch that phone cord as far as it would go, trying to have a private conversation while your whole family was home.
And if you talked too long, someone was definitely going to tell you to get off the phone.
Just found an old passport of mine. 1994, and I remember how much I hated this photo because of how I looked. I wish I could go back and tell that girl she looked great.
William and Kate are everywhere at the moment. I'm surprised they weren't announced as the new Strictly presenters.

My kitchen re-fit starts next week. As usual I got a sudden burst of energy late at night so I've started packing the non-essentials away.
Went to see one of my fav films last night, The Others. A couple arrived 50 mins into the film, made loads of noise finding their seats, chatting and eating. Film ended 45 mins later and they commented how short it had been. Turns out they had gone to the wrong film.
Lovely night out with my son. Dinner, and then my second trip to @NationalTheatre in 4 days! This time to see The Story, starring Letitia Wright and Lorraine Toussaint (fabulous in Orange is the New Black!) Great play and I loved the clever staging and lighting.
I've been sorting out my wardrobes and I've realised I have an unhealthy obsession with cloth tote bags. I have tote bags from places I'd forgotten I've even visited π¬
My favourite song of all time. As a child I lived in the pub where she did her first live performance, as my parents were the landlords. Sadly we moved in 4 years after Kate performed there!
The Bell Jar is one of those classics I've never read but always wanted to, so I was delighted to find this gorgeous edition in a charity shop today for Β£1.25 π
My mum sent me off to school as usual. There weren't many of us in π€£
#OnThisDay 16 October 1987
The Great Storm of 1987 wipes out power across London, forcing TV-am to broadcast from the continuity desk at Thames, and Nicholas Witchell from the BBC's 'broom cupboard'.
