Tommy said to her: "I've never spent the night with a girl!"
Megan said back in surprise: "And you are here now?"
Megan told him that she would be "honoured" to be his first.
It led one girl to remark that Megan would be taking Tommy's "cuddle virginity".

Only singing can save Clapham Common from the apocalypse

Imagine, if you will, a near future in which the wildfires are 'raging outside of Milton Keynes'. Unless it was protected inside the lush 'biodomes' dotted around the country, the remaining greenery has withered and died amid extreme weather and scorching temperatures. Like the rest of the 16-year-olds in this world, Akaego is awaiting the big day — Augmentation Day — when her unique talents will be 'surgically enhanced to ensure the survival of society'. She is one of the few people who have the power to accelerate the growth of plants — a precious talent in a climate apocalypse that is killing off the source of so many foods and medicines. As Augmentation Day approaches, she receives a mysterious note. 'Whatever happens,' it warns, 'don't get Augmented.' Why not? What does the rebel group of 'Freestakers' know that she doesn't? What secrets are her parents keeping? And what really happened at that 'aerogel manufacturing plant in Croydon 13 years ago'? The author Kenechi Udogu was highly commended in the Fab Prize, the Faber competition aimed at spotting new talent, and Augmented has first-novel energy. The premise is strong. Akaego can use her voice to grow plants; she just needs to fine-tune her frequency: 'The first note came out louder than I'd expected. […] The second also felt off. Like it was catching in my throat, reluctant to escape into the world. My head tilted backwards with the next note. This one had more of a melody to it, and I latched on to it. Unlike the others, it felt light, like it wanted to roam free, like it wanted to be more than just air trapped within my body.' A musical mission to save the planet? I'm here for it. I was looking forward to our heroine bringing plants to life like Spielberg's ET resurrecting that dead chrysanthemum. • Eight books to get your child excited about reading However, no sooner has Akaego's superpower been introduced, her Midas touch is all but forgotten and her story is left to wither in favour of a much less interesting one involving the internal wranglings between some rather dull rebels and the mayor's office. (Something about only certain classes of people being allowed licences to grow their own. As the story goes on, there's less about planet-saving soundwaves and more secondary characters turning up to say things like, 'It still doesn't give them the right to stop people from trying to create equally sustainable societies which can function outside of theirs.') So the concept is promising, but the writing is clunky. As she considers the desolate landscape that was once Clapham Common, Akaego imagines 'what spaces like this would be like if I could help rejuvenate them. If the ability everyone believed I had would be able to provide more enclosed green leisure spaces for people to enjoy.' • Read more book reviews and interviews — and see what's top of the Sunday Times Bestsellers List Thankfully, there's a sweet and gentle romance, and enough interesting ideas to keep things thrumming, if eco-sci-fi is your thing.

Heston Blumenthal: Mood swings fuelled the chef's genius. But the highs got higher and the lows got darker

"We just wanted a relaxing conversation with our dad and we weren't able to have one," says Jack Blumenthal. "It was horrible. And it was constant."Raw pain is etched on Jack's father's face as he finally realises how his undiagnosed mental illness - and erratic manic behaviour - hurt the ones he loves the a new BBC documentary, celebrity chef Heston Blumenthal is talking to his son for the first time about how he became impossible to live with."We'd plan it three weeks in advance, getting prepared just to see you for half an hour," says Jack, who now runs a restaurant himself. "And there was nothing I could do to help you."Heston wipes a tear away. "I'm sorry," he says. 'Wired differently' At the height of his fame in the 2000s, Heston Blumenthal was a culinary icon. Known for bacon-and-egg ice cream, snail porridge, and theatrical dining, he was a big brand worth big bucks. But behind the molecular gastronomy and Michelin stars, his mind was increasingly in years, he thought he was simply "wired differently".Heston had long believed his emotional highs and lows were just part of who he was - part of the creative chaos that fuelled his culinary genius. In the early years, his imagination ran riot in a positive way, he gradually, the depression worsened. The highs became higher and the lows much recalls having to "lie on the floor to cope" during the filming of a cooking programme several years ago. At one point, he felt as though his new ideas were like thousands of sweets falling from the sky - and he could only catch a in late 2023, a manic episode escalated into psychosis. Heston was hallucinating guns and had become obsessed with was admitted to hospital for the first time - and finally diagnosed with bipolar disorder. "How did I get to 57 years-old before I was diagnosed?" he asks. I recently sat down with world-renowned psychiatrist Prof John Geddes to watch a new BBC new documentary I'd been collaborating on - "Heston: My Life with Bipolar".In the programme there's a clip of Heston being interviewed by the BBC in 2020 about using robots in the kitchen. He uses surreal, nonsensical metaphors: "I want to put the shadow back into the sunlight, I want to put the inside out back into the outside in… I want to put the being back into the human."Watching the interview, Prof Geddes says it's clear Heston was "in the midst of mania" at the time. "If I'd seen that then I would have immediately thought, 'That is a sick man'," he high-octane celebrity chef's environment allowed his erratic behaviour to thrive. His eccentricity wasn't only accepted, but celebrated. His brand flourished, nurturing the capricious genius, and he was supported by a team that kept him functioning. But at home there was no such infrastructure - no such from Bipolar UK suggests that for every person with bipolar disorder, a further five family members - like Heston's son Jack - are profoundly affected."Families fall apart because of the mania more than the depression," says Prof Geddes. Lithium lifeline During six months of filming, Heston's psychiatrists wean him off the cocktail of pills prescribed to him after his hospital visit, and he is moved onto the mood-stabilising medicine, isn't an easy process. Changing medications can offer trigger extreme reactions, so to do it on camera is Heston is subdued. He says the antipsychotics and antidepressants make him feel "zombified" and his memories are as time passes his mood lifts, his energy returns, and he regains some of his old swagger. Lithium is working for him - and you start to recognise the Heston of years gone the end of filming the documentary, Heston is keen to ask me about my own research into bipolar care in the man I speak to is definitely still Heston - obsessing over the perfect peppercorn ratio - but now he's calm, focused, and Geddes isn't surprised."Lithium is the gold standard of care, but in the UK we don't use it enough," he says. "It requires careful management from GPs and psychiatrists. In the NHS, the system simply can't keep up - that's probably one of the reasons why lithium use is falling in the UK, when it should be rising."The UK has a stark shortage of psychiatrists and mental health professionals so patients face waits that often stretch over years. On average it takes someone more than nine years to be diagnosed with bipolar disorder from first contact with a my many interviews about the disorder, I heard psychiatrists describe bipolar patients as "ghosts in the system", "the ones that fell through the cracks" and simply as "forgotten" or "let down".Lithium use, and timely access to psychiatrists are both directly linked to a reduction in suicidal thoughts in people with bipolar disorder. In the UK, death by suicide is rising for people living with the illness. This bucks all other downward trends for suicide. Learning to live with the fire Heston's diagnosis came only after he became a danger to himself - hallucinations, paranoia, and eventually a call from his wife to emergency weeks spent in a mental health clinic, and a year of medication and rebuilding his mind, given the choice Heston says he wouldn't turn off his bipolar disorder if he could. It is a part of him. This answer captures the essence of his journey - of learning to live with the fire, not extinguish it."Someone living with bipolar cannot be separated from it - their personality is entirely and intrinsically connected to the condition," says Prof Geddes. "Treatment doesn't erase it, but it does make the mood changes manageable and helps a person function within their ecosystem - with their family, friends and job."Heston's journey mirrors that of many: misunderstood mood swings, delayed diagnosis, and the long road to balance. But it's also a story of identity, resilience, and the power of clarity after culinary world once masked his illness. Now, it gives him a platform to speak out - and he's using it.
