The Duchess of Sussex has celebrated her first US Mother's Day as a parent by posting a picture of her son Archie's feet.
The SussexRoyal Instagram account shared an image of Meghan, who is American, holding her son's heel.
In the caption, the account paid tribute to "all mothers today, past, present, mothers-to-be, and those lost but forever remembered".
While Mother's Day is in March in the UK, it was marked in the US on Sunday.
Talks are to be held in a bid to avert a strike by London Underground workers over the weekend of the FA Cup Final in a dispute over safety.
Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union are set to walk out for three days on 17 May, the day before the showpiece game at Wembley Stadium between Manchester City and Watford.
Thousands of fans would be hit by any disruption to Tube services.
The union has accused London Underground of cutting train preparations, inspections and maintenance which it says threatens safety – however London Underground denies the claims.
Talks between the two sides will be held at the conciliation service Acas on Friday.
The union is planning to hold a protest at City Hall next week urging London mayor Sadiq Khan to intervene.
The RMT said around 1,000 of its members, working on maintenance and other areas, are involved in the row.
My World:
It's been an exhausting week, I started it with a scam email threatening to expose my so called 'naughty' behaviour to all my friends on social media and on email if I don't pay money. Needless to say they didn't get a penny, but don't worry I can't see you being bombarded with horrific pics of me in the altogether.
Went to see Conan Grey on Wednesday night with my nephew Joseph and became inspired to write a whole new series, fantasy. I started there and then at the gig lol.
Friday night saw me down the pub with my colleagues from work celebrating Lara's 30th birthday. It was nice to spend time with them out of work.
The decorating of the spare room is coming along bit by bit, ceiling painted, cracks filled, carpet up.
Reading Dreams of Beautiful Whisper by Tanya Jones.
My writing:
As mentioned above, a new series has been started and set aside so I can pick it up at a later date.
Still working on the edit for Trial & Retribution.
Sunday 8pm I'm going to be doing an author date over on Facebook for the 4th Indie Lit festival. Come and say hi to me.

Round-up of the Week
March 11, 2018 gibbsdream
Bono, U2 singer has apologised after claims of bullying and abuse emerged at One, the charity he co-founded.
An allegation was made that one female worker was demoted after refusing to become intimate with a foreign governmental official.
News from London
Liz Hurley's 21-year-old nephew is in hospital after being stabbed repeatedly in the back in a brutal attack in south-west London. Police were called on Thursday to a street, near Battersea Park.
Another busy week has seen me moving from site to site and seeing different views and meeting a diverse spectrum of people.
My living room is a step closer to being finished as the new carpet was laid yesterday. It's looking fabulous and is so silky that I make any excuse to get my socks off and walk across it.
Twenty-one years ago today my nephew and Godson Joseph was born so we had a civilised family get together. For his present we'll be going to a gig, not sure which one yet. Many years ago I started a tradition, which became known as Auntie Mia days, so instead of a present we go somewhere, my nieces and nephew have always known they can opt out and go back to presents. So far, Joseph still wants quality time with me and because of his interest in music, it is always a gig.
Started reading Sugar and Spice by RE Hargrave and so far, I'm loving it.
Writing News
Again another pitiful amount of writing done. I'm feeling very drained at the moment which is killing my creative streak. Sins of the Father is still with the editor and so far so good.
