Things I Say to the Cat while Watching old Made in Chelsea

 



  Who's she? 
  That's not her name. 
  She can't need that big a bag, she doesn't do anything with her day. 
  Aren't his nipples far apart?
  Unless she's taking her library books back. 
  Have they been abroad somewhere again and it's only online?
  Big Ben isn't in Chelsea. 
  I wonder what makes them decide for or against letting their parents appear in the programme?
  Where do they get the dogs from? 
  These party scenes are filmed at seven in the morning, like we all don't know. 
  With extras. 
  Except you can't call them that any more.  
  They're support artistes. 
  Like cleaners are ablutionary facilitators. 
  This early in the morning, filming done, the crew can then go on and do day-job filming. 
  Like on Location, Location, Location. 
  Or Doctors.
  Or Songs of Praise. 
  HIs nipples really are at the furthest distance apart humanly possible. 
  They haven't let that tea brew nearly long enough. 
  And she's got more eyeliner on her right eye than on her left. 
  Oh, now, they're doing the soap actor thing of never pouring a full cup of tea. 
  Can't speak lines while handling props.
  Can you please not wander off along the cushions during the adverts? 
  We have to watch the adverts or they'll stop letting us watch Catch Up. 
  Oh, okay, you can stare balefully out of the window at the twat opposite who needs silencers for his bike. 
  Why doesn't Bear Grylls just move indoors somewhere?
  I nearly fouetted into Kate Moss dancing at Club Kabaret. 
  That still isn't that girl's name.  
  How can her accent only be about a third as posh as her sister's?  
  If she's going to speak like that, they'll have to rename the programme Made in Wandsworth. 
  Mark Francis and Victoria are a gratin above the rest, though, aren't they?  
  He has housekeepers. 
  But you only see the ones in his foreign houses. 
  That's interesting. 
  And see on the bathroom shelf above the sink - as they're all boys living together - girls living together start menstruating in synch, boys start facing the heads of their razors and toothbrushes the same way.  
  For the feng shui.
  Actually, synced menstruation isn't anything to do with feng shui. 
  You know, if his nipples were any further apart, they'd be his arms.

My Mate Jamie-Ray Hartshorne

     I've been noticing that alongside photos of Jamie-Ray being a lead in Altar Boys , creating Change My Body UK TM , working the door at Freedom - and clearly asking people passing by wherever that rockpool may be to snap a double-bicep - this sort of thing is cropping up on his social media:   We're in The Diner, Jamestown Road, Camden.  He's between tour dates of  The Bodyguard,  and meetings to discuss sportswear and creatine endorsements.  The latter, he says, being all about making his product better.   Between sips of his peanut butter milkshake (he's allowing himself dairy today in my honour - I don't quite know how to take that) he says in his soft Brum, 'I've signed up for a major Muay Thai event in Thailand next February.  I'm going up against one of the Thai fighters.  That's the only real way to gain any respect in the fighting world.  That's why you've been noticing the combat photos.  I...

Psychic Readings

  As it's Summer Solstice, let's revisit my mother's lodge for a seance.  We know from a previous blog entry that lodge members are asked only to heal, and to have no truck with past lives and spirit guides.  See:   Previous blog featuring the lodge...   On the QT they have seances, at which the medium tunes in to great mysteries of the past.  Here are some of the readings.  I've taken out anything that explicitly reveals the subject of the reading.  Then we can play at guessing what it might be...      'There's something to do with a pile of tied up newspapers.  Was there an evening paper delivery?  They need to talk to the paper boy from back then as he saw something relevant but didn't understand at the time what it was he was seeing. There's also something to do with the plants by the front door.  The leaves of one of them were too dark to have been real.  Put there on purpose to deflect attention from ...

More Stuff I've Overheard

'Famous actors don't need to dress like famous actors. Apart from Simon Callow always seems to.' 'She smells like she hasn't actually had that winter coat out as much as needed.' 'Christopher, you can't possibly know that Sea Salt won't have a man's fragrance.' 'None of us on the till thought it was possible to override the take away drinks machine and do an oat milk hot chocolate. But Little Mary went on a mission. Sally and Big Mary were looking on, to see how Little Mary managed it. I stayed out of the way - didn't want any part, sorry. Took ever so long. Janice buttered at least three crusty rolls in the meantime.  'When she handed the drink over Little Mary asked the customer if it was okay - it being a bit of a freak beverage - and he said it wasn't as hot as it could be, but that meant it wouldn't over-melt the marshmallow on his Easter Bunny biscuit, would it?  'Mary said, "All's well that ends well, t...
