    I think we are on the same page about this! A red line is a red line! And this: “There is no accounting for taste” and “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” important to me when it comes into what is nice and what is not. Spot on!

    Once when I was 15, I went to Paris with my mum and dad. We visited the Louvre and many museums but when we got to the Pompidou centre (which is full of contemporary art) I had a bit of a teenage tantrum! I was so fed up with being dragged around and I honestly couldn’t see anything but pretentious faff! Even though my mum was cross with me at the time, she admitted that she thought the same. Now when we want to say something is crap in our family, we say it is pompidou!😂
