Heston Blumenthal’s Christmas range for Waitrose. I accidentally bought the mince pies with pine flavoured sugar topping. Fuck me I thought I had drunk disinfectant. Horrible sickly Christmas pudding with a sweet orange inside yuk!

Nandos? yuck. Why would anyone have high expectations for a fast food chain?

Champagne I don’t get the love. I like to toast the occasion but people who insist on drinking only champagne when they go out wtf.

Oh, oh and Les Miserables. People were wailing in the cinema, wailing. I was just willing them to get the fuck in with it. Most of it wasn't even actual songs. Just normal conversation dragged out in song. Spit it out! And Russell Crowe couldn't even sing.
