This month I’ve been drinking Kylie Minogue’s wine, practising packing my suitcase and getting on my soapbox for a rant about door-rattling delivery drivers…

Celebrity Tipples

I’ve been sharing Kylie’s wine… well ok, not with Kylie Minogue, but cracking open a bottle of rose from her new wine range. Gracing Tesco’s shelves at £9, I thought I’d give it a whirl, though the big surprise was it’s not Australian but French! I’m cynical of celebrity wines after a nasty experience with Graham Nor ton. I love Graham as a presenter, but sadly his wine ended up down my sink – sorry Graham! But I’m loving Kylie’s version: light, dr y and goes down a treat!

Bag Shrinking At EasyJet

It’s cabin bags only for me on budget flights – it saves money and I can pack enough for a week with EasyJet. However, buckle up for a bumpy ride as they are shrinking their cabin bag sizes. From February 10, the new size of 45x36x20cm means it’s half the space of the current version – and it has to fit under the seat in front! And if you want more space you’ll need to pay more!

Super Zoom Tips

Who’d even heard of Zoom this time last year? But since coronavirus hit, many of us are vir tual video chatting with family and friends, and even doing work meetings or job inter views this way.

I’ve been using Zoom for TV inter views, and found a fabulous accessor y in the form of a Ring Light, when indoor lighting won’t do the trick. Here’s a snap of mine, below. It comes apar t in seconds, plugs in and works wonders! From Amazon where prices star t from under £10.
