1) Sorry, I was a bit slow off the mark with this week’s Sunday Tittle Tattle and so those who subscribe by email will be reading this on Monday morning. Also, I’ve decided to go Old School and return to the previous way of titling these posts; it’s easier to pick them out when they’re marked Sunday Tittle Tattle which is important as they are – strangely! – one of the most consistently popular posts. If you’d like to browse through the back catalogue and see if you’ve missed any, you can find them all archived here.

2) I have set Mr AMR the monumental beauty task of working his way through all of these little Tom Daxon fragrances and reporting back on his findings. I was going to do it myself, but they are just a little too much on the masculine side for me.

Apart from Crushing Bloom, I suppose, but even that isn’t feminine enough for my prettified pregnancy sense of smell! I’m not sure what the point of this perfume testing is, really, but when you have no phone reception and slow internet and have finished all of the available Game of Thrones episodes, one has to make one’s own entertainment. We also spend quite a lot of time looking at bathroom supplies catalogues and “popping out” to do unnecessary tasks. You can find Tom Daxon’s Sampling Set online here, if you fancy a try yourself.

3) This week’s photo of “Mr Bear on Holiday”: Mr Bear hiding in the laundry. Thank you Mother, keep them coming! (I’m actually going to go and visit Mr Bear in a week or so, I can’t wait!) Did you know that my Mum has a blog? I tell you this to put some pressure on her to write more posts – if you find yourself reading through, please all of you leave comments telling her to write more posts! She’ll be very perplexed but it will make me laugh.. My Mum Says…
