Also nonsense but I am enjoying the lovely SIGHTS of Albania in the video and now I want to go. Mr Kate’s cousin is married to an Albanian so I’m sure we can figure it out sometime

Francesca Michielin - Il canto delle anguane​

And only a few weeks since I was in Italy. When am I going to win the lottery so I can be on holiday all the time? Hmph. Anyway. The 3 months of Duolingo I did aren’t helping with these lyrics. But if she sings “I study German and have a cat” I’m THERE.
Anyway. It was alright.

I thought it was 'bad man people'.

I really am devastatingly white.

Marvellous. Thanks TartyButt (despite picking a RUBBISH Kate for my fighter! Bush and Winslet were RIGHT THERE for starters)
Some chopping to be done later.

I haven't heard of either of those but could I interest you in any of these iconic Kates?

Kate Robbins? More like Kate ROBBED.

 

[Kate]

I suspect Lawler would do better these days after calling Hopkins (who thank fuck doesn’t count due to that “i”) a CUNT the other day.

Also Garraway needs adding.
