My Twitter feed is 90% excitement about Leicester winning the Premier League. Still don’t understand football, but it’s nice to see all the same, it really is. :)

Primark security guard ‘physically removed’ baby daughter from mother as she was breastfeeding
Primark security guard ‘physically removed’ baby daughter from mother as she was breastfeeding
I was in fact in this Primark store at the same time this happened (that’s where I got my flower crown!), and can confirm this is almost certainly true: all the time I was there, there were announcements on the tannoy that sounded a little off – “can all second floor staff go to meeting room” and the like. Apparently Primark are working with the police to try and solve this, but it’s pretty shocking all the same.

King Richard III is getting his second burial this week. (It’s certainly an improvement on the first.)
I wrote a thing on Newshub! And I’m gonna keep writing things on Newshub, even though their linking system does not appear to work well on Tumblr.
HOWEVER Newshub only pays authors whose work gets into the top 10% of the category, so, if you read this and like it, please upvote it? Bottom and top right-hand corner, little green box. It’d be really appreciated, anyway.
The local news is still (obviously) covering the Richard III celebrations/reinterment, and I’m still finding it so exciting. I’m probably going to go see the coffin when the crowds die down, and there’s gonna be a fireworks display at the end of the week so I might go to that too. It’s…aaah, it’s such a cool thing to happen! I mean-
-I literally walked past that car park loads of times? I probably walked past it during my very first week in Leicester, because the first nightclub I ever went to was near that street. Who’d have thought something as utterly cool as this would ever come from it?
