On my way to the cinema I stopped off at Fortnums to check out the new set up - they have a delightful small food and drink area downstairs next to the wine department so can give you the very finest vintages - I had a small glass of Puligny Montrachet (my favourite white). It was fabulous. But £50!!!

Sweet Jaysus! You weren't drunk then.

By the way it was a fabulous day in London today. I walked miles in the sunshine just because it was the perfect spring day.

It is gorgeous but a very small glass - about half a dozen sips. But I sensibly alternated with gulps of the finest Fortnums ice cold water.

Your comment reminded me of this Vlog that has been started by Michael Barrymore in recent days, he's walking around his haunt in London with his selfie stick and his dog and mundanely going into very many food and drink stores picking up his bits and sitting having a drink to himself, while bumping into a few people out and about. This was his Shrove Tuesday one for day nine so far.

He spends a pretty packet, but maybe not £50 a glass, too many of those and you will be bust, some would on one or two!

I must say I have watched these short daily walkabout Vlogs and can't help think he looks and sounds very lonely and is seeking affirmation from people.

24 years this month since the incident at his home and yet a recent Mail article about him being mobbed while in Spain still had to bring up all the details of that 2001 time even though the item had nothing to do with it, and included full colour pictures of the man who lost his life in the pool. They will never let it go for him no matter what they report on. He apparently has another place now in Spain to get away from things when he wants.

I actually met him twice and the second time was when filming in the very week he came out and caused a media sensation back in 1995.

I did read he loves vlogging and Tic Toc but we all know it's the only option he has left. I still think his lover was involved over Lubbock's death. Barrymore was more concerned about his stash of cocaine being discovered by the police.
