Not bad at all.

For your next piece I want to read about smillew going to Zumba.

He's famous. I think.

But he is a certified liar.

This sounds like someone I know - she's a bit of a twat.

If this doesn't make her start writing on Substack, I don't know what will.

For fucks sake, make the migration already.

I think she's happy there. Substack is a bit weird even for me

I read a lot of Claire's work, and I'd say you did a bang-up job. I'll go even further by leaving the type of comment I normally would on one of hers...

"I'd pray to the yoga gods that one of them twists herself into a knot so tight it requires a summer's worth of yoga payments to hospital to untangle her."
