Sue’s into land of the rising fun
SUE Perkins in a nappy – not so odd once you discover she’s with female sumo wrestlers in Japan. fairly sure they were human – with their homework and Toto the dogbot, who likes to be stroked and taken for walks.
The mum was holding a cushion that, without warning, robotically hugged her. Weird, but I think I’d quite like one.
And the robodog would certainly help with my pet allergies.
By way of contrast, Sue tried forest bathing – lying on a log in the woods to chill out. “Just so long as she doesn’t get out a flute,” said the brilliantly cynical Sue. There was a flute.

A bargain at £700, saving thousands on a real wedding, not to mention a potential 45 years of telling someone to pick up their socks. Perhaps they are ahead of the game? Next week geishas and marriage hunting. Just like Sue, let’s keep an open mind. MY heart went out to
