[mumofoneAloneandwell]

Hey everyone

posting here shamelessly for traffic

if you’re at home alone, with a —man— partner you want to leave, or with sugared up kids, join me??

Happy New Year, whatever you’re up to, AIBU users

Heather Small, excellent performer 😀

She had a hit with her version of that Bowie song many years ago.

Edited to add: 51 years ago!

Man Who Sold The World? She had a hit with that in the mid-70s, iirc.

I tried watching Hootenanny, but two minutes of Ronnie Wood waggling around and thirty second of the Kooks trotting out their one notable song was more than enough.

What would happen if someone appearing on hootenanny had died by new year Eve, I wonder
Ruby turner is a permanent feature

Heather Small was good.
Craig David. Awful. Just dont bother.

😄😄😄

I notice they were going to talk to Meera Syal, but didn't in the end. Possibly cut it out because it'd be blatantly obvious that it wasn't live if they didn't discuss her getting a Damehood in the New Year's Honours List.

See. I thought he was pretty good. It's all subjective. The boy can sing.

I am not a fan of Jesse j

Go Jessie J. She's had a shite year. Sing it proud love.

I don't think anything can be future islands

Although this piano playing ix excellent

Omg Jessie J singing My Way she has a phenomenal voice.

On the other hand Ronnie Wood looks like he's been dug up.

Well he looks great considering his history. Sanjeev saying he’s filming The Split. It must be coming back

He wasn’t shit though. His voice was good, we enjoyed it.
Everyone must’ve watched a completely different show to us.
Hootenanny on the other hand, which used to be brilliant, was boring me to tears before I turned over. Everyone used to be up and dancing, it was a right laugh. That’s not allowed anymore apparently 🤷🏻‍♀️

I actually don't mind it's prerecorded.....still loving the music. Immelda Mae is smashing it! Ronnie Wood really should be at home toasting the new year with a whiskey!

Yep considering his history it's amazing he's here at all.

What a great start to 2026😂 Things can only only go up now 😂

Ignore me I am pished

Why are you shouting? People here are tyring to sleep

No one is a fan of Jessie J surely. And if they were trying to be open minded, opening with some zodiac mumbo jumbo when they talked to her was absolute 🤦‍♀️

Here in Australia we had an aging Spice Girl singing for a while before the spectacular Sydney fireworks at midnight.

Then Auld Lang Syne was performed by the Play School toys, which was a nice touch.

Jeesus Heather Small and Jessie J - what bizarre bookings!

Which one?
