I’ve just seen a Christmas advert

That 2 minute advert from Amazon during Bake Off on Tuesday is their Christmas one. Emotional and the best advert of the year. The ballet dancer is French and her name is Tais Vinolo. "When I was growing up in the French countryside, there were no young black girls studying ballet with hair like mine, or even on TV, meaning I had no one to identify myself with."

“Being on this shoot helped so much with this, enabling me to own who I really am, who I want to be and what I represent. I am so proud to have been part of this project since the message of it means a lot to me and even more so in this very difficult time that the world is going through."

Hi Bazzy 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Funnily enough the cloud has cleared again here so methinks a frost is imminent. Mind you I have just been down the garden and it’s doesn’t feel as cold now as it was earlier to so.......

No rain forecast here for at least a couple of days 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Hi Mooniekins 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰Glad your day has gone well 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗No, it was a Tesco clothing one 🤣🤣🤣I know , I was talking to the gas engineer in the garden....he had checked the boiler while he was here ...it’s in the garage .....so I made him go out and round the back , rather than coming through the house .......and I suddenly started to feel quite faint .....I thought at first it was just the shock of what I told you about  ....but after he had gone and I came in I realised what was happening 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣I too I’m the extra masks off and lay down for a while .....what a plonker I am 🙈🙈🙈🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I always pull the mask right up over my nose ....and down to my chin .....
