"There was something romantic about it. I don't mean romantic in a kissy sense, but in that 'Ah, I wonder where it's going? Is it travelling somewhere nice?' way." - Status Quo frontman Francis Rossi on the sound of trains in the distance

My mother has refused getting her dinner because "I'm waiting until he's dead". I was baffled but obviously she's watching a murder mystery. "Death has priority!"

My dad and I were fascinated by a car next to us at the tip which had gull wing doors. We were watching as the driver opened the doors and then knocked their head on the edge, and then as it drove off it turned out to be a Tesla Model X. We are currently in hysterics

Me on a candlelit vigil for AIDS in 1987.
Me last week. Looking pretty healthy for 58 (28 years living with HIV).
I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30.
Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50.
I’m 58 now.
HIV treatment works.
Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex.
Ensure HIV treatment for all.
End HIV stigma.
