R to @rhiannasandford: It was a deliberate play on the ludicrous claim that I’m loaded… a cross between the Scrooge McDuck gif and the Whoopi Goldberg/Annie Liebovitz shoot. It’s about £100 in change there (and it went back to the bank)

I’ve just got a physical copy of the Guardian and I possibly won’t be giving this one to my folks for the clippings box. ‘Mum, Dad, I finally achieved that career goal of [checks notes] being a nude centrefold’

R to @fergalpquinn: It’s not much, but it’s not been touched. We’re still within the statute of limitations to sue, and if I don’t need it for that, I’ll donate it. Exactly as I said at the time.

R to @_JakeLingz_v9: Not my bath, not my coppers, Jake The Obsessed. It’s called a Photoshoot, and those things are provided and paid for by the Magazine. See also:

R to @_JakeLingz_v9: That’s one of the reasons, yes. What’s it got to do with you?

R to @ChrissieClarky: That they invited me there to speak on an Oxfam fringe. Revoked my pass two days before then reinstated it. They covered pass, accommodation and travel, it cost me literally nothing to go.

R to @Joannechocolat: I’m sure they’d be delighted to have you if you asked ☺️

R to @therealmi5: 1. It was just me and Simon, and Simon matched my £20. Ergo we paid for our meal anyway

2. It was empty (at the start) because it was zero degrees outside. Several large groups came in after us

3. I’m fine in a pub, occasionally, in trusted company, and I had a big pot of tea.

R to @BootstrapCook: 4. Simon really did try to insist on paying for dinner, and the manager was equally insistent that it was a gift. This went on for some time. So in the end we thanked them, then slyly slipped the large tip (equal to our bill) under a glass on the table as we left to square it.

R to @BootstrapCook: 5. I was in touch with my sponsor and several old time recovery friends throughout the whole day. All day, every day, in fact.

6. Thankyou for your concern, but it’s misplaced here. I hope that clears a few things up.

R to @JayMotty: If I’m going to relapse, I’m unlikely to do it with a journalist who has two dictaphones running. I said I’d be fine, and I was right, I was fine. I’m emotionally and mentally fragile, yes, but I’m sober.
