Why on earth do supermarkets only remind you AT THE TILL about the need for food bank contributions? If they had little reminders on the shelves for pasta, tuna, tinned tomatoes, rice, etc I would donate far more than I do.

Cover girl at nearly 83! If someone told me at 60 that I would be doing this and my one woman show 'Nothing in Moderation' (starting Feb 1st) I would have laughed and said 'No way' , but then again life is full of twists and turns and you just need to embrace it. #sagamagazine

I've never done a stage show before and at 82 I'm probably nuts to try it, but it's huge fun, makes the audience laugh and let's me rant away about the restaurant trade, publishers, TV and writing, and sing the praises of food, love and life. The 'Nothing in Moderation'.

Have you ever gone to a bag of brown sugar and found it is one solid lump? All you need to do is put the sugar in an airtight container and add an apple, lemon or orange. Leave for 24hrs and it will be soft and spoonable. Do you have any tips and tricks? #kitchenhacks #wasteless

Well said, Danny. How about a bit of kindness and tolerance?.
Dom and Mary's journey was necessary and therefore within rules. What's also necessary is not attacking a man and his family for decisions taken at a time of great stress and worry, the fear of death and concern for a child. This isn't a story for the normal political shitkickery.

Today's review of @NHSuk hospital food by @MattHancock and @BorisJohnson is long overdue. It cannot be right that patients are allocated £1.49 a head for a 3 course meal and a drink. Healthy food means faster healing, happier patients and fewer bed nights. A win for everyone?

Do you know this great tip? When brown sugar dries to a concrete block, put it in an airtight container with a lemon, apple or orange. In 24 hours it will be soft and spoonable. #toptip #kitchenhack
