Picky bits, coolcations and Perez Hilton
This week, is Madison Square Garden really the place to be?

Is Haaland the real winner of the 2026 World Cup? All reports would suggest yes.
Post heatwave, some summer travel thoughts: coolcation considerations, using your horoscope to book, and I loved Stevie Martin living it large on a Caledonian sleeper.
I wish every recipe book were like Ellie Steafel’s But First, Dinner - the writing is just as delicious as her menu suggestions.

And who’s really to blame in the tiny windows epidemic currently blighting the UK?!
Until next time!
Helen, Miranda, Vic & Sophie
