Lapsed influencer. Geordie (*VERY*). Arty. Amicable. Nice. Previously did football for adidas, Nike, Puma, World Soccer, Guardian, NY Times, BBC. And then one particularly sensitive and articulate teenager will say, "Why kids, do you understand nothing?
Good night.

The Lee Miller show at Tate Britain is a must see exhibition. Beautifully curated and a fascinating account of her life and her photography.

Trying a โCoastal Negroniโ. Nee idea whatโs coastal about it, but Iโve never tried a negroni and that seems to be a thing these days. Canny lass being shown what to do at the bar, and good measures. However, it tastes like flat blue slush at the church disco circa 1982. People are off their tits.
