    Last week my MOM got an actual TATTOO. I'm still in shock. Important deets - 1. She's been drunk twice, ever 2. She thinks "crap" is quite a bad swear word 3. She got the tattoo on a Women's Institute coach trip to Chester 4. It's of a ball of wool and knitting needles

    White privilege means you're not disadvantaged *by your race*. Not that you're not disadvantaged. Sincerely, a former working class child with white privilege.
    “You have this term white privilege… tell that to some of the young boys and girls in my constituency” Ipswich MP Tom Hunt says white working-class children have been left behind #politicslive bbc.in/376HCzA

    Not a great pic as it's curved around her shoulder (she's not the best at selfies) but here it is. From a woman who makes her own jam and recently had a Victoria Sponge judged by a Women's Institute official in a white lab coat.

    Quotes: 5. "Bat out of Hell was playing while I got it done." 6. "The man took a photo because he's never done one before" - no shit 7. "The language in there was a bit choice. Someone said the F word! Not to me, to his colleague" 8. "I'm old now, I can do whatever I like"

    *UPDATE* It went down a storm at the @WomensInstitute meeting last night. Mom thinks the Twitter love is hilarious. She's enjoying a "cheeky day off" school due to flooding today. Here's a pic of the wonderful woman herself, pre-ink ❤️

    9. She was going to do a big reveal at Christmas but didn't want to "because the grandchildren will be there". They are 14 and 16. Their dad, @chrisnevmoore, has numerous tats. 10. She told me I am "still not allowed one".

    Is there an amazing deal on highlighters somewhere which you're willing to share with the class?

    Fans of my mom (and who isn't?) may enjoy this earlier brush with fame. She has always been a legend.
    Someone recently found this newspaper clipping of my mom (Wendy, on left) "causing a stir" by being a female engineer in 1970. Later became be 1st woman to get a HND in engineering in Shropshire & rescheduled her wedding to revise 😍. Love this - total legend #womeninSTEM

    Still not sure I get it, "London" isn't in Arsenal's name, Milan is in theirs. Is the thing that they don't shorten it to IM in Italy and don't want others to do so any more? Is this recent? (I'm genuinely interested - I don't feel strongly either way!)

    She once told us about someone's son who went to Amsterdam and smoked crack. Turns out she thought crack was slang for cannabis 😂
