Westfield Shopping Centre beckoned for comfort. I was due there anyway after Topman couriered my last suitlette over minus the trousers. Only on enquiring was it revealed they weren&#8217;t available. Fortunately the customer services telephone person traced a pair in the right size to Topman, Westfield Shopping Centre. So off I went for comfort. It was a long way and a hideous challenge to find the shop you want in the complex. Laura Malcolm whatsApp-ed: &#8216;Furious and upset.&#8217; I proposed myself for luncheon. We managed to perk up. Was it the Dunkirk spirit? One can&#8217;t be too sure what&#8217;s happened to that now. Maybe it&#8217;s been wiped out since we don&#8217;t like them any more. We saw some migrants in the street. &#8216;How about we adopt Brexit attitudes?&#8217; Laura said. &#8216;Yes, if you can&#8217;t beat them, join them,&#8217; I said. We can all be hostile to outsiders for sport and to gain the comfort of solidarity if we really want to. \u00a0A Colombian man was cleaning Laura&#8217;s home. Non-EU at least. But we felt for Miroslav, except he&#8217;s just been round and is only interested in the football. Minette, my cleaner also: not bothered, although Rumanian. They are rather marvellous, these Eastern Europeans. I mean, what are we going to do for staff?<\/p>\n<p>I wended my way home via Buckingham Palace for comfort, but she wasn&#8217;t there. Marvellous the way she proclaims that she&#8217;s &#8216;in&#8217; with a huge great flag flying on her roof. Could be very inconvenient if you didn&#8217;t want anyone dropping by. Before that, with a huge effort, I visited that Furniture Cave down the bottom of the King&#8217;s Road &#8211; we&#8217;ve got to go on buying. But they have only have mega items these days &#8211; huge brand-new antique things of sickening opulence.<\/p>\n<p>So back home I couldn&#8217;t resume my programme. I telephoned to Val, then Genevieve Suzy loomed from Brownies, where her daughter had been left. They&#8217;ve got this new dog, it&#8217;s a miniature Dachshund in a mink shade. Luckily she&#8217;s grown since Monday where I saw her in the <em>Dainty Lady TV<\/em> studios (she&#8217;s to have a regular segment) because really there&#8217;s quite a risk she could be stepped on being about the size of an eclair. Diamonella (she came with that name) scampered in my garden, then wee-ed the rug (it&#8217;s so old and no sign of a stain now: we sprayed at once), before falling asleep. Any exertion requires at least 30 minutes of bed rest. She&#8217;s got a pink blanky in which she is wrapped. Then we went off to Brownies where a huge presence of Remain voters (the producer of &#8216;The Dragon&#8217;s Den was there) were collecting their off-spring. The Brownies had been making a cake for birds to be put in the fridge over-night. I didn&#8217;t like to mention that this was a bizarre activity for midsummer when the birds are self-feeding. Back at the Suzy residence, we watched the news: &#8216;Prime Ministers crying&#8230; we must cover that,&#8217; Genevieve cried. After that Graham Norton came on with Joanna and Jennifer who cheered up the Nation with their antics. They&#8217;ve made a new <em>Ab Fab<\/em> film. I&#8217;m sure it&#8217;s a mistake but there we are.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_7667\" style=\"width: 573px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7667\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7667\" src=\"http:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0248-563x750.jpg\" alt=\"I am Proud to be of the Waitrose Twitterati: I Proclaimed to the Man in the Key Ring shop and he Knew at Once What I Meant \" width=\"563\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0248-563x750.jpg 563w, https:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0248-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0248-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7667\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I am Proud to be of the Waitrose Twitterati: I Proclaimed to the Man in the Key Ring shop and he Knew at Once What I Meant<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_7668\" style=\"width: 573px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-7668\" class=\"size-large wp-image-7668\" src=\"http:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0247-563x750.jpg\" alt=\"Genevieve Suzy's New Dog in a Mink Shade: Diamonella \" width=\"563\" height=\"750\" srcset=\"https:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0247-563x750.jpg 563w, https:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0247-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/IMG_0247-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 563px) 100vw, 563px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-7668\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Genevieve Suzy&#8217;s New Dog in a Mink Shade: Diamonella<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday 25th June 2016 I was shattered and remained closeted in my room on the phone to Fergus Strachan and then the Gay Mother. &#8216;Well, we&#8217;ll have to make the best of it,&#8217; she said.
