Harry and Megan in Nigeria

So good to see Harry and Megan together, as a couple, enjoying themselves at the Invictus Games in Nigeria.  Even if they have been frozen out of the British establishment, this shows that there are plenty of places in the world where they will be made welcome.  So much more exciting and colourful to watch than the other drab royals.  And how petty of Charles to say that he was too busy to meet his son and daughter in law on their brief visit to London.  Purely out of curiosity, I also watched Megan as the research-paralegal on Suits in last night’s double-bill.  Though I didn’t stay to the end.

And by the way, I won’t be watching tonight’s Eurovision song contest.  Never watched it for years.  Nothing personal.  It’s just that I can’t stand watching mediocre talent prancing around in stupid costumes to the sound of boom bang a bang.  Why is it always the wackiest act that wins? United Kingdom-nil points.

Do you believe in ghosts?

Don’t believe in ghosts? You will believe after you’ve met a real-life jinni. You will believe after you have been taken to a rooftop seance at an hour past midnight and seen a glass fly into the air and smash into the face of a sleeping child. You will believe when a young man, who was a champion swimmer, tells you how he was drowned in the waters of Hawkesbay and his body was washed towards the rocks at Sandspit. And all because it rained and he forgot the sadhu’s warning. You will believe!
