I used to do business with a firm called Wartski of Llandudno. They were an extremely high class jeweller with a shop in New Bond Street. The main guy I dealt with was called Geoffrey Munn and he used to turn up on the Antiques Road Show as their Faberge expert. He looked exactly like your chap in the cartoon :joy: Softly spoken and referred to every piece as a ‘jewel’. That’s brought back some memories :joy::joy:

Reminds me of this quote about Frank Bough from a recent Guardian interview with Fern Britton which unfortunately isn’t so funny.

“ At a team lunch, she sat next to Bough. “He turned to me, lying back in his chair, [and said] ‘I wonder how long it’ll be before I’m having an affair with you. Because I do have a very big cock’.”

Mrs J_C was talking about Phoebe Bridgers latest album yesterday. I went on a small rant about how that Woman just wasn’t content with being a successful comedy actress and screenwriter and how is that the privileged have every opportunity thrown at them whilst working class people have to literally sell their souls for arts funding and it’s never easy for regular people…, same as with all of these new bands that are music school brats cosplaying as townies… Etc Etc

She listened politely and said “Honey, you’re talking about Fleabag Phoebe Waller-Bridge? I’m talking about Phoebe Bridgers, the American singer/songwriter”

“Never fucking heard of her” :eyes::joy:

Whenever someone mentions Arlo Parks I just think it’s that one off Fame Academy (Alex Parks).. 2 very different singers, apparently.

Only thing I can drink in this heat is a huge vine glass with a lil bit elderflower syrup, 1/3 of cheap pinot grigot, lemon, mint and soda.

That looks so good (he said, searching in his drawer for a suitably long straw)! Cheers!
