The Mock Turtle

I really enjoyed the first episode of Little Fires Everywhere Reece Witherspoon's character is so amazingly dislikable and there's also PACEY Although S came in and commented on Kerry Washington's one emotion acting

I love everything Reese does. I HATED Kerry Washington's perma-snarl, though. It nearly ruined the whole thing.

My bloody TV decided not to connect to the internet last night so it’s going to have to wait until this afternoon now.

We are watching The Last Dance now. It's really really interesting. I can't decide if I like Michael Jordan or not.

I was planning to watch that cos I love a sports documentary, until I read about the backlash and how MJ's production company is involved. I can't be bothered with hagiography, I want a neutral documentary.

There's another Lance Armstrong documentary coming out which is apparently another few hours highlighting his sociopathic status. I can't imagine why he continues to sign up for these things.

I didn't know about a backlash as I am deliberately not googling anything as I don't actually know if they won the championship in that last year, but it doesn't really surprise me that there was one. It's all so interesting.

I love a sports documentary too. Did you watch All or Nothing about Manchester City? That was fascinating.

This weekend was spent binging:

Becoming with Michelle Obama (bring tissues)
Working Moms season 4 (meh)
The Cyntoia Brown one
One of Us about people escaping theif Hasidic lives in Brooklyn which was interesting but I realised I’d seen it before when I was halfway through.

I have not! I shall add it to the list, ta Teabs. Pep.

As a United fan it's against the rules but I do love Pep.

Sames. The same dispensation goes for Klopp. It's impossible not to love that jovial German.

Pep and Klopp are both lovely chaps.

I really enjoyed the Manchester City All or Nothing, but was surprised at how much Pep swears!

I’m going to marry Pep, just for the Christmas cards we will send.

You should also send out invitations to an open house:

Pop over to Pip and Pep's.

I know we’ve already talked about this but yes. There is also a whole Twitter thread devoted to her snarl. My sister just started watching Little Fires and I had to give her a heads up.

Mr O gets told he looks like Pep.

My friend sent a message this morning to say she doesn’t like LFE. Partly because of the snarl, partly because of the sex. She’s not a prude, just annoyed because she’s literally only just finished the book.

I don’t think there’s been a huge amount of sex so far (just watched episode 3). Although the last thing I watched was Normal People

I could have lived without seeing Pacey in white yfronts and vest though.

Yes, I watched it straight after Normal People and it seemed positively tame.

And agreed on Pacey in his tighty whities.
