This new obsession has finally pushed me right over the edge ( Read more... )

Since I've been in my current job I've started listening to The Archers. It wasn't something I ever succumbed to at Tesco, I always used to turn Radio 4 off for that quarter of an hour, refusing to listen to it. Now, maybe it's because I'm a few years older or maybe it's because I was bored and it was better to listen to than nothing, but I left it ( Read more... )

Well, one boy anyway. I'm in love with Jacob Black. And yeah, I know he's 15 years younger than me and all fictional, but I can't help it. So in love. I nearly brought a Taylor Lautner calendar this afternoon. I had to force myself to put it back on the shelf and grab the Eclipse one instead, because there's no need to confuse my parents by having ( Read more... )

There's a conker tree (horse chestnut) over the field by my house. It’s big and tall and embodies a lot of my feelings of childhood. It's always been there and I used to think it was magical, and I kind of still do, because, you know, conkers ( Read more... )

I think the spambots or tweetbots or whatever they're called are following me in real life *looks nervously over both shoulders*. I was just idly looking at the prices of cars at the second-hand at the Hartwells down the road as I walked past (very idly seeing as I couldn't afford a car when I had a job let alone now) and I get back and naturally ( Read more... )

To give an idea of just how bad the stimatism in my eyes is. I came back from walking Toffee ready to tweet: Anyone know why the moon looks all squashed and sausage shaped. I was still looking out of my bedroom window at this strange phenonemon when I put my glasses back on and... whoa! It was round again. The difference was bizarre. I never ( Read more... )

First of all, before I forget and it's June or something.

Happy New Year
&
best wishes for
2010!

I went to London to see in the new year. It was the first time I'd had the opportunity to go to the capital for New Years and I was so excited. Nik and I went down to stay with her sister and her fiance who live in Wood Green. We met up with a big bunch of ( Read more... )

They're removing (they are the electricity board) the old concrete lamp post from outside my house. I feel like I should go out there and ask if I can keep it. It's been with me for 32 years! They haven't picked the best day though. It's -3 today and I just heard one of them say "You know its cold when you have to beat the bottom with a sledge ( Read more... )

Okay, when a small piece of bourbon biscuit rises from the depths of my tea and scares the sh*t out of me, I think it's time to seek medication.

What did I think it was? A bloody shark?

My memory is getting terrible ( Read more... )
