Penny is my endurance icon. Next time I have to wait ages in the queue at the post office and feel like screaming, I’m going to channel Penny.

I got burgled in 1997, and amongst the things that were stolen, were two amethyst rings. I think I've just spotted the stones, stuck to the front of the Archbishop's robe!! 😲.
I wonder if he can account for his movements on the night of 15th September that year?? 🤔

End of the day it's an advert for UK plc. Which really needs it. It's one of the few unique things in this country, may as well make use of all this stuff sitting around.

The money isn't all lost and the returns it'll generate vary greatly wildly from 80p for every £1 spent to £8 for every pound spent.

Reminds me a bit of all the complaints over refurbishing Westminster palace and the Elizabeth tower. Yes it cost millions, but it was in a real state. What's the alternative? Let a heritage building fall into disrepair then crumble to the ground and instead give the money so that everyone can buy a single tin of beans? The money wasn't lost, it was spent on artisans and a lift to make it accessible for the first time.

She has been my very unexpected hero of the day. Actually I think I remember her conducting herself in a similarly dignified way during one of the ceremonies after the Queen died. She’s certainly got “presence” and looks amazing! I think I’m developing a crush 😅

Penny is 50! She doesn't look it! I love everything about her look today. She looks fab.

If you don't want to celebrate and don't agree with it that's up to you but let everyone else enjoy it. (y)
