Sally is just the best. We need her in the states more often.
Sally Phillips ❤
Thanks for sharing this brilliant interview. The Idler drinks Zoom calls were such an important part of my lockdown experience, and I'm so happy they have continued. I just got a bit of 'pandemic nostalgia' watching this. Sadly, I just can't take part live like I used to, due to family commitments (kid's bedtime, basically) so thanks for continuing to share.
Yay Sally Philips ❤
Now I want to see the reality show with the tourists, what is it called?
Found it. The tourist trap.
Very interesting
