Elegant Volvo restomod looks amazing and will be built in tiny numbers. Cyan Racing is the part of Polestar that Volvo didn’t acquire. This company's newly revealed P1800 GT continues from a previous Cyan P1800 restomod, now aimed at road use. Modern four-cylinder turbo and part-carbon structure promises impressive power-to-weight ratio. Sweden is one of the European countries that possesses the deepest tuner culture, one that often uses old Volvo models as the basis for new specials. But very few get to be as special as this, the Cyan Racing P1800 GT: a spectacular restomod based on the Sixties Volvo coupe. Cyan Racing is effectively the bit of the Polestar racing team that Volvo didn’t fully acquire back in 2015, which has started to create some limited-run road cars alongside its continuing motorsport activities. The first of these was the Cyan Racing P1800, which we tested in 2022. It combined a part-carbon structure with power from a modern 2.0-liter four-cylinder turbo engine. With 420 horsepower propelling just 2424 pounds, it managed a 4.1-second time to 60 mph and a 12.6-second quarter-mile at 113 mph. The P1800 GT is a further development, one that is claimed to be more comfortable for road use. Cyan claims it is a grand tourer, its adjustable suspension now developed for "winding country roads and inspiring but comfortable long-distance driving." Power will continue to come from a Volvo-sourced turbo four, but with different power options available from 350 through to 420 horsepower, tuned to deliver drivability rather than just whizz-bang performance. A five-speed manual gearbox made by Holinger is standard, featuring a dogleg change configuration with first gear hung down and left. The first of Cyan’s P1800 GTs is the one you seen in the pictures here, destined for a customer in the U.S. and featuring a metallic green exterior color with a sand beige interior. We love the chunky corduroy-twill carpets and Momo sports steering wheel. Cyan says the GT's seats are more comfortable and less restrictive than the track-spec buckets of its first P1800, and the new car also gets retractable safety belts in place of multipoint harnesses and more sound-deadening material. Although intended primarily for road rather than circuit use, the GT still uses a titanium roll cage, which adds structural strength as well as safety. Production will be limited, by both the considerable time it takes to fully build each car from what is effectively the ground up—between 12 and 15 months, according to Cyan—and also by a very serious price. We don't have a confirmed figure for the GT, but the base price for the first Cyan P1800 was $700,000 back in 2022. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a46844491/cyan-racing-volvo-p1800-gt-details-specs/

For every goldendoodle, there are 995 potential buyers. Why is the breed more po[CENSORED]r than any other? Top of the pups … a goldendoodle. Photograph: Oscar Wong/Getty Images Pass notes Dogs Reign of the goldendoodle: how it became the UK’s top dog For every goldendoodle, there are 995 potential buyers. Why is the breed more po[CENSORED]r than any other? Mon 19 Feb 2024 15.24 GMT Name: Goldendoodle. Age: The first goldendoodle is thought to have been bred by Monica Dickens, the great-granddaughter of Charles, in 1969. Our mutual (four-legged) friend? Stop that. A dog, I’m guessing? As opposed to an absent-minded scribble with a metallic pen … yes, a goldendoodle is a dog. Created by breeding a golden retriever with a poodle. AKA a Groodle. Not to be confused with Dougal. Who’s Dougal? Google him; he’s a skye terrier from The Magic Roundabout and not important here. And pass notes is interested in the goldendoodle/groodle because? It is the nation’s most sought-after dog. Not the labradoodle? Nope. It’s down at No 6. Still po[CENSORED]r, mind. Cavapoo? Currently seventh and now beaten by the maltipoo at No 3. What is this chart, anyway – top of the pups? Pretty much. The data comes from studying the sales and adverts on the Pets4Homes website, the UK’s largest online pet marketplace. Last year, there were 995 potential buyers for every goldendoodle advertised. Can’t argue with that. And what it is about goldendoodles that makes them so po[CENSORED]r? Well, their coats are more hypoallergenic than other breeds, which mean they are easy to care for, and they have an easy-going temperament. Axel Lagercrantz, the chief executive of Pets4Homes, said: “After the baby boom of the pandemic, many homes are searching for dogs that will go well with their new young family.” Best not go for an American XL bully then. You can’t; they’re banned. I wonder if that’s why the doberman is at No 2, with 795 views per listing … Anyway, back to goldendoodles – Adele could also be a factor. Is Adele a goldendoodle? She’s a pop star. Oh, the Adele! She has a pair of goldendoodles, Freddie and Bob. They are, she says, a “spark of joy”. Then there’s Brodie … Ian Broudie of the Lightning Seeds? No, Brodie is a goldendoodle, with 13 million combined followers on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube. Brodie’s human, Cliff Brush Jr, is said to have made more than a million dollars last year from Brodie’s viral videos and brand endorsements. I’m getting confused about who is a human and who’s a goldendoodle. Funny you should say that; another viral goldendoodle, named Sunny, is also confused and thinks he is a human; he stands on two legs. Oh my God, that is soooo cute. I want one! How much? Goldendoodles now sell for up to £1,600, which might sound like a lot, but it is less than they cost during the pandemic. Do say: “A goldendoodle is for life, not just for TikTok.” Don’t say: “A return of a million dollars a year, you say, on an initial investment of £1,600 … I’ll take the whole damn litter!” https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/feb/19/reign-of-goldendoodle-how-it-became-uk-top-dog

Amadou Onana shows his delight after equalising. Photograph: Chris Brunskill/Fantasista/Getty Images The manner of his arrival as Crystal Palace manager was unfortunate, to put it mildly, but Oliver Glasner will have drawn encouragement from his first glimpse of Roy Hodgson’s old team at Goodison Park. Palace were worthy of at least a point against a regressing Everton, who need all the help they can get from their appeal against a 10-point deduction to stave off another relegation ordeal. Sean Dyche believed the presence of the new Palace manager galvanised the visitors, who led through a superb Jordan Ayew shot and were on course for a first win at Goodison in almost 10 years only for the substitute Amadou Onana to rescue Everton late on. The draw took Everton out of the relegation zone on goal difference ahead of Luton, who have played a game fewer, but performance-wise they are going backwards. yche’s team remain heavily reliant on set pieces for goals – Onana’s equaliser was their 10th goal from a corner this season – and are now eight games without a win in the Premier League. At home against a Palace team that has suffered a managerial ordeal in the past few days, along with 11 defeats in their previous 18 matches, Everton served up a dreadful display. The manager’s attempt to talk it up was another concern. “Oh no,” said Dyche when asked whether this represented a missed opportunity. “It is another point on the board. We’ve just popped out of the relegation zone as well. Now we wait on the 10 points [verdict], but no I haven’t heard anything yet.” Positives were the preserve of Palace. Glasner sat alongside the chairman, Steve Parish, in the Goodison directors’ box having been confirmed as Hodgson’s successor shortly before kick-off. His predecessor’s coaches, Ray Lewington and Paddy McCarthy, took charge as planned when the former England manager fell ill on Friday. There was a switch to a three-man central defence from the visitors with Daniel Muñoz and Tyrick Mitchell stretching Everton as wing-backs. Glasner’s first impressions of English football were deeply unattractive. The two recent FA Cup ties between the teams had lowered expectations for their fourth meeting of the season and the first half certainly lived down to them. It consisted mainly of Everton launching one long ball after another in the general direction of Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Palace centre-halves Joel Ward, Joachim Andersen and Chris Richards absorbing them with ease. There was no plan B from Dyche’s team. The Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish (left) speaks with his new manager, Oliver Glasner, ahead of kick-off. Photograph: Sebastian Frej/MB Media/Getty Images The visitors’ defensive strength and organisation will have enthused the former Eintracht Frankfurt coach. Palace also had the better chances of a dreadful first half but poor finishing and a goalline clearance reprieved Everton. Odsonne Édouard shot straight at Jordan Pickford and Jefferson Lerma sliced an inviting chance over after being teed up by Muñoz. Jean-Philippe Mateta did go close with a back-post header from Adam Wharton’s deep corner only for Ashley Young to hack clear on the line. Everton’s pre-match hopes centred on the return of leading goalscorer Abdoulaye Doucouré, making only his second appearance since the team’s last league win on 16 December due to hamstring trouble. Doucouré was largely anonymous although released Dwight McNeil for Everton’s brightest moment before the break, when Calvert-Lewin headed the winger’s inviting cross wide. It was the finish of a striker low on confidence and now without a goal in 19 games. In fairness to the Everton centre-forward he was far too isolated to have a meaningful impact. Calvert-Lewin was not only expected to win the first ball but the second too. It was grim fare, and Everton’s lack of quality in possession and tendency to go backwards with it proved a severe test of Goodison’s limited patience. One minute of added time at the end of the first half represented a small mercy. Jordan Ayew’s shot beats Jordan Pickford to give Crystal Palace the lead. Photograph: Carl Recine/Reuters Jarrad Branthwaite, who endured a tough night against the powerful Mateta, escaped when appearing to clip the forward’s heels as he broke into the area. Mateta also made light work of James Tarkowski’s attentions and put Mitchell through on goal after holding off the Everton captain. Pickford was off his line smartly to smother the wing-back’s attempted chip. The course of the game appeared to have been shaped by two contrasting moments in two second half minutes. Everton should have taken the lead through Doucouré but instead found themselves trailing to Ayew’s precision strike. The Palace goalkeeper Sam Johnstone was instrumental in both. Johnstone made a point-blank save to prevent Tarkowski heading home a McNeil corner. The rebound fell to Idrissa Gueye who dragged a shot across goal and into the path of his fellow midfielder. Doucouré, all alone at the back post, scuffed a gilt-edged chance from four yards out and Johnstone clawed the ball to safety just in front of the line. Seconds later the Palace keeper launched a goal-kick deep into Everton territory where Édouard headed on to Mateta. The French forward held off Branthwaite to find Ayew, who sent an emphatic drive into Pickford’s far corner from outside the box. Everton were staring at a calamitous defeat with Calvert-Lewin heading another good chance wide from a McNeil cross and Johnstone pushing away a James Garner shot. From the resulting corner, however, swung in by McNeil, Onana soared above the Palace goalkeeper and headed in a vital equaliser from close range. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/feb/19/everton-crystal-palace-premier-league-match-report

Reeder, 77, tries on one of her creations. Photograph: Joshua Bright/The Guardian A new start after 60 Fashion A new start after 60: I couldn’t find a hat for a wedding – so I unleashed my inner artist Anne Reeder always wanted to go to art school, but her father didn’t think it was a suitable education. In her 60s, she finally went back to college to follow her dreams When the eldest of her three daughters got married in February 2009, Anne Reeder searched everywhere for the right hat. “I needed fabric to complement my cashmere coat but the only hats that matched cost a fortune,” she says. “I had to go for a straw one in the end and probably looked a bit ridiculous.” The experience sparked an idea that Reeder only began to pursue three years later, at the age of 65. Deciding to become a freelance consultant after four decades as an occupational therapist and trust manager in the NHS, Reeder signed up for weekend classes in Ipswich to learn millinery, the art of hat making. “I’ve always loved drawing and sewing and I could always do with more hats to round off an outfit,” she says. “Millinery seemed like the perfect combination of my interests.” Her first task was a wide-brimmed white Ascot hat, machine-sewn from large circles of fabric. “It was wonderful watching it eventually come to life between my hands,” she says. “I ended up using it as a sun hat and took it on holidays with me for years after, until it became completely worn down.” Reeder with one of her hats. Photograph: Joshua Bright/The Guardian The experience of making something from scratch reminded Reeder of her early passions. “I really wanted to go to art school but I was one of three girls and my father wanted us to have a career that we could support ourselves with. He didn’t think an art school education was suitable. Making hats decades later released that creativity and allowed me to start again.” Once she retired in 2014, Reeder signed up for an intensive hat-making BTec qualification at Kensington and Chelsea College. Once a week, she would take the train to London and begin the complicated process of handcrafting pieces. “We learned everything from finding inspiration to sketching and making 3D models in paper,” she says. “Once we had our design, we would then ‘block’ it on wooden pieces, steam it, wire the edges, join the crown and brim and finally trim. It was such an absorbing process.” Reeder went on to make a range of hats on the course, from a fungi-inspired creation to a silk hat meant to evoke the harsh edges of the Grand Canyon, a straw hat inspired by glaciers and a felt hat layered like autumn leaves. “I can lose myself in it, put the radio on and get going,” she says. “You can even make flowers and shape fabrics while watching TV.” After receiving a distinction in her BTec, Reeder realised she could begin selling her stock. By 2015 she had launched her website, selling everything from £40 fascinators to intricate set pieces for £200 or more. “The business is mostly word of mouth and it has been lovely meeting ladies who have never worn hats before but want to find something they’ll feel good in,” she says. “In the nine years since we started, I’ve made hundreds of pieces, from a My Fair Lady-inspired hat to trilbies for men and even a free-flowing spiral that took weeks. I’m proud of it all.” Reeder at work. Photograph: Joshua Bright/The Guardian With her creations taking anywhere from an hour for simple fascinators to several weeks for intricate pieces that require drying and setting, Reeder, 77, now has a dedicated hat-making workshop in her home. “It has really refreshed my interest in fashion and fabric,” she says. “I went to India a few years ago and bought lots of offcuts to make headbands, and I also recycle old dresses into hats. I’m thinking of making a whole collection out of preloved fabrics next.” She now has more demand than she can keep up with but she is keen to learn new techniques. “I have to be careful not to make this another full-time job but it’s a wonderful community to be part of,” she says. “I’m part of an online milliners’ academy and I try to go to London Hat Week each year.” Recent cataract surgery and the purchase of a pair of trifocal lenses mean she is confident her eyesight and dexterity can withstand the demands of fine stitching as she nears her 80s. “I wish people would wear hats more, as it makes all the difference to an outfit,” she says. “I’ll keep going as long as I can, since people always need something interesting to wear.” https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2024/feb/19/new-start-after-60-i-couldnt-find-hat-wedding-unleashed-inner-artist

At least one dead as Israeli forces open fire on crowd of hungry Palestinians waiting for aid convoy in northern Gaza. Displaced Palestinians gather to receive food at a government school in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip on February 19, 2024 [Mohammed Abed/ AFP] At least one Palestinian man has been killed and many others wounded in northern Gaza after Israeli forces opened fire on desperate crowds waiting for food aid, according to witnesses and videos. Footage verified by Al Jazeera shows Palestinians on Monday fleeing to take cover along a ruined coastal road in northern Gaza – which has been almost completely cut off from aid amid Israel’s ongoing war – as the heavy sound of gunfire rings out. The videos also show clouds of grey fumes from smoke bombs billowing as thousands of Palestinians gathered in the area west of Gaza City. At least one person was killed in the incident, according to witnesses who shared images of a man splayed on the ground with a wound to his head. The Wafa news agency said at least 10 people were also injured in the attack. Victims and witnesses told Al Jazeera the Israeli attack was unprovoked. “I went down,” one man said at a hospital where he had been rushed to for treatment. “I heard gunshots then and I don’t know what happened.” Another man said he only went to the area to get flour. “We want to feed our children… just like everyone else so we went to get some flour. But then we were shot at, shells were fired and tanks advanced at us,” he said. The attack is the second of its kind in as many days and comes amid a rapidly deteriorating humanitarian situation in Gaza, where the United Nations has warned of famine-like conditions affecting some 2.3 million people. The footage from Monday also shows Palestinian children rushing to scoop up flour from the ground after one sack broke open. Despite the desperate situation, Israel – which controls entry points into Gaza – has refused to allow more aid in. Several UN agencies on Monday warned that the “alarming” lack of food and water as well as the spread of disease could lead to an “explosion” of child deaths in Gaza. “We’ve been warning for weeks that the Gaza Strip is on the brink of a nutrition crisis,” said Ted Chain, UNICEF’s deputy executive director for humanitarian action. “If the conflict doesn’t end now, children’s nutrition will continue to plummet, leading to preventable deaths or health issues which will affect the children of Gaza for the rest of their lives and have potential intergenerational consequences.” According to the Palestinian Health Ministry, at least 29,092 Palestinians, most of them women and children, have been killed in Israeli attacks since October 7. Another 69,028 have also been wounded. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/2/20/israeli-forces-kill-wound-palestinians-waiting-for-food-aid-in-gaza

The Russian-made car was delivered to Kim for his ‘personal use’, North Korea’s state-run KCNA says. North Korea's leader Kim Jong Un met Russian President Vladimir Putin on a visit to Russia last year [FMikhail Metzel/ Sputnik via AP] North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been gifted a car by Russian President Vladimir Putin in recognition of their “special personal relations”, state media has reported. The Russian-made car, the make and model of which was not disclosed, was delivered to Kim’s top aides, including his sister Kim Yo Jong, on February 18 for the North Korean leader’s “personal use”, state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said on Monday. Kim Yo Jong courteously conveyed Kim Jong Un’s thanks to Putin to the Russian side, saying that the gift serves as a clear demonstration of the special personal relations between the top leaders of the DPRK and Russia and as the best one,” KCNA said, referring to North Korea by its official name, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. Putin’s gift appears to violate Moscow-backed United Nations sanctions against Pyongyang, which prohibit the supply of all “transportation vehicles” to North Korea. Kim is believed to own an extensive collection of high-end cars and has been spotted travelling in luxury models including the Mercedes-Maybach S600, Rolls-Royce Phantom and Lexus LX 570. During his visit to Russia’s far east in September, Kim admired Putin’s presidential Aurus Senat limousine and was invited by the Russian leader to sit in the back seat. Putin and Kim, both of whom are increasingly isolated on the international stage, have forged closer ties since Moscow launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. In October, Kim wished Putin victory over the “imperialists’ anti-Russia scheme” in a letter marking the 75th anniversary of their countries’ bilateral relations, state media reported. The United States and its ally South Korea have expressed concern about growing military cooperation between Moscow and Pyongyang. South Korea’s spy agency said in November that Russia likely assisted North Korea’s successful launch of a spy satellite, which Seoul, Tokyo and Washington condemned as a pretext to test ballistic missile technology. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/2/20/special-relations-north-koreas-kim-gifted-car-by-putin-state-media-say

No @NINJAAAA?

If you really, really must have your cake and eat it, too, there's the 2024 Jeep Wrangler 4xe Rubicon X. This plug-in-hybrid SUV marries the immense off-road capability we've come to appreciate from the Rubicon name with newfound electric-only capability for almost a couple dozen miles at a time. That pairing works better than you'd think; but then again, for a starting price north of $70,000, it had damn well better. If you're unfamiliar with newer Jeep parlance, the Rubicon X not only brings all the off-road hardware we expect—Dana axles, an electronically disconnecting front anti-roll-bar, locking front and rear differentials—but it also throws a bunch of premium stuff into the equation, like cushy nappa leather seating, a heated steering wheel, a transfer case with a automatic four-wheel-drive engagement mode, additional exterior cameras, and beadlock-capable 17-inch wheels wrapped in 285/70R-17 BFGoodrich All-Terrain K02 tires. HIGHS: Drives nicely in electric mode, still capable of climbing El Capitan, fab cabin tech. Not only does the Wrangler 4xe's electrified powertrain give it the ability to operate emissions-free for an EPA-estimated 21 miles, it also confers some major power benefits. By itself, Jeep's turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four produces 270 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque, but the 4xe combo bumps output to an impressive 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque. Combined with Dana's full-float rear axle, this will let you tow up to 5000 pounds, so you never need to leave the Jet Skis at home. Of course, all this power made for some impressive figures at testing time as well. Our test ute made its way to 60 mph in 5.2 seconds (not bad for a 5568-pound brute), a bit of an improvement over a non-X 2021 Wrangler Rubicon 4xe, which required 5.5 seconds. Five-to-60-mph sprints show improvement, as well, with the 2024 Rubicon X needing 6.0 seconds against the 2021 model's 6.2. Handling-wise, the two remain even-steven at 0.72 g on our 300-foot skidpad. In non-instrumented driving, the 4xe Rubicon X is the metallic manifestation of "Meets Expectations." The ride quality is on par with the average unladen body-on-frame trucklet, in that it's a little janky. The recirculating-ball steering—now with a slightly slower steering ratio—is old enough to have fought in the Spanish-American War and feels every bit of its age. The brake pedal is a little too firm, causing a fair bit of head-bobbing if the initial press is even a hair too strong. The BFGoodrich tires are aggressive enough to claw out of almost any dilemma, but there's a trade-off in how much they wander on just about every type of pavement. LOWS: Soft-top cabin noise, five-drink-minimum steering, 10-drink-minimum pricing. And then there's the noise. Our long-term Ford Bronco's removable hardtop lacked the optional sound-deadening, and as a result the cabin can be quite noisy at highway speeds—specifically, 76 decibels at wide-open throttle and 72 decibels at a steady 70-mph cruise. This Wrangler 4xe includes the optional (and, at $3995, expensive) Sky One-Touch power soft top. We had hoped for better sealing on the Jeep, but alas, our microphones picked up 76 decibels at WOT and 73 decibels at 70 mph. It never sounds truly sealed, which makes for some interesting white-knuckling at the car wash. Easily the most standout part of this Jeep is the hybrid half of its powertrain. Its 134-hp electric motor provides smooth—and, more importantly, sufficient—acceleration while the 2.0-liter stays in bed. However, when the charge runs low and it's time to operate as a traditional hybrid, things get a little murky. The transition between EV and ICE power isn't the smoothest, and a lot of it comes down to the gas pedal; give it too small of a jab, and the 4xe simply won't accelerate. Lean on it a little too heavily, though, and the engine awakens with a violent surge of forward motion that will catch your passengers off-guard and lead to more unwanted body movements. Not every 2024 Wrangler upgrade concerns the mechanicals. Creature comfort takes a massive step forward this year with the addition of a standard 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen, which replaces the puny 5.0- and 7.0-inch units from years past. The software is, in characteristic Stellantis/Uconnect fashion, easy on the eyes and easy to use. It'll let you connect two phones via Bluetooth simultaneously, it's loaded with off-road trail maps, and it includes wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Two USB-C ports are a welcome addition for front-riding occupants, and the Wrangler can be outfitted with seven USB ports in total, split between USB-A and USB-C. VERDICT: If you really want to buy an $80,000 Jeep Wrangler, we're not going to stop you. You could get a plug-in Wrangler for as little as $52,590, since one of the updates for the 2024 model is a new Sport S 4xe trim meant to make its electrified offerings a little less expensive. But our test example is at the complete opposite end of the spectrum, replete with higher-end equipment. A nonhybrid Rubicon X will set you back a little under $60,000, but the PHEV sends the price into low-earth orbit, with a starting figure of $72,290 and our test car ringing in at an eye-watering $79,345. Perhaps Jeep hides $20,000 behind one of the fenders; we should've checked. https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a46804234/2024-jeep-wrangler-4xe-rubicon-x-test/

Janice Dickinson: ‘For breakfast, I’m digging sourdough with English or Irish salted butter.’ Photograph: Paul Archuleta/Getty Images The Observer Sunday with… Interview Sunday with Janice Dickinson: ‘Growing up in Florida it was all about surfing’ Samantha Rea The model talks about sourdough toast, her two Hungarian bird dogs, reading Barbra Streisand and becoming a grandmother What time are you up? I start spreading my toes at around 10am. That’s the time I should be in the gym and my brain is aware of it. ‘You should be in the gym,’ I think. I feel so much better leaving the gym than I do walking in. What’s for breakfast? I’m into toast lately. I’m digging sourdough with English or Irish salted butter. Sometimes I put a little honey on it, or avocado or blueberry jam. Depends on my mood. Bit of fresh air? I have two Vizslas, Jack and Jimmy. They’re Hungarian bird dogs that need to run a lot, so we take them to the park, let them off the leash and they go up and down saying hi to everybody. Sundays growing up? Our house was in Florida, about 12 blocks from the ocean, so I’d throw beach towels, sun lotion and a snack into the basket of my bike and cycle to this surf spot that people hung out at. I’d spend the day surfing and watching the waves. I did that from the age of nine or 10. A Sunday to remember? A few weeks ago I learned I’m having a granddaughter. My son invited us to his house and had us open a pressie. It was an Etch A Sketch with the news written on it. They watched me reading it and I started to cry. I was so happy, I didn’t hit the ground for about an hour. Sunday evening? I’m reading Barbra Streisand’s My Name is Barbra. It’s hard to get into at the beginning, but if you force yourself to stay with it, it’s worth it. Or there is always Netflix. Ever get the Sunday night blues? Sure, I think everybody does. People would be lying if they say they didn’t get them. It’s a normal reaction to be, like: ‘What time is left that I can call my own?’ Sunday nights belong to me!
