reading Conservative Home is fun

Surely Town and Country is more fun, with the awkward personal ads that overly keen parents take out for their spinster 20-something daughters, poor things.

conditions based on type of soil

Had my cricket 1-1 coaching session this morning; it’s a well known spot for a lot of professionals to have a hit because it’s just one batting cage and there’s an element of privacy to it. England players, folk from Surrey etc often pop in.

Ask the guy who runs it all if he’s had anyone in recently - he goes behind his front desk and instead pulls out a Polaroid of Sunak being there, and said he also pops in regularly for 1-1s. Had a small laugh and he said he’s had to keep it off the socials…

I'm not sure I can believe this is a thing?!

my moderate lottery win

I’m not 100% sure of the name, but it’s close and it’s very much a thing. The ones I’ve serendipitously read all seem to feature nice young ladies, no men, late teens to mid-20s, with completed or ongoing university education, so I presume it’s not their idea to advertise in a magazine.

Of course it doesn’t explicitly say it’s a personal ad, that would be uncouth. Instead it gives a general picture of the lady, and also an outline of her family. Presumably interested parents and aunties can contact the magazine and ask their children’s profile be forwarded to the family.

Sounds like the Country Life "Girls in pearls" page. It's not an ad though, it's part of the editorial content.

Isn't this "the debutante season"?

Made sense to me, I chuckled.
