According to Chinese astrology I was born in the Year of the Tiger, which might explain why I love them so. One of the most amazing moments I experienced while leading singles’ holidays was seeing a tiger walking through the grass in the early morning light in India. Truly magnificent!
So, when I saw the footage of a baby tiger that’s been born in the zoo I gave a great big smile. Watching the huge mother lick him (or her apparently gender won’t be known for a few weeks) was a spine-tingling moment and in a week when human mothers have been in the news for cruelty to their children beyond belief, the tigress showed how it should be done. And although I had a short labour – three hours only – I still envied her her six minute birth!
I had an audition this afternoon for an online supermarket commercial and afterwards treated myself to afternoon tea in Selfridges. Because I’m worth it! But unfortunately, I have to give Selfridges my Retailer’s Raspberry. I ordered afternoon tea but as I don’t like tea asked to have decaf coffee instead. The waitress said ‘Certainly, madam’. But when it arrived it was one cup, that wasn’t even full. I queried why it wasn’t a pot of coffee as everyone else seemed to have a pot of tea and was told that coffee was an extra and that’s why you.only get a cup.
Mean or what???
And then I had to ask for a clean knife to cut my scone as I didn’t want to use the same one that I had cut my salmon roll with. Not what I’d expected of such a store so RASPBERRY to them!
