Oh, so you’re away, are you? I hadn’t noticed, what with those multiple, stage-managed shots of you draped in floral prints, sipping a mimosa as the sun sets beneath the Mediterranean. That must have taxed your considerable creativity. 

I bring it on myself. It’s what I deserve for mindlessly scrolling through Instagram as my train decelerates into the hellscape that is any Central Line station before 10am.
