Writer's Block: I Made It Myself
I once spent the entire downhill leg of a hike whittling about 20 sticks into sharp points. Ok, I'll be honest here - they were stakes. I was supervising a group of prissy French teenaged campers from the mountain cabin back to the main camp, and already two had fallen thanks to "inappropriate footwear". Who the hell wears platform boots to go ( Read more... ) -
Taste was...
Last night - totally reminded me why Taste was my favourite night out in Edinburgh. Despite Cabaret Voltaire being a bit too *intimate* of a venue for it, the music was exactly how I remembered it (very much my sort of thing), and I ran into tons of folk I know and haven’t seen in ages.
Oh, and Mark Price took his trousers off, and played his ( Read more... ) -
Are you smarter than a 10 year old
I just watched a 38 year old woman painfully attempt to spell the word "potatoes".
Fucking hell. -
How good does this look?!
There's a night on next week - the Ever So Sweet launch party. Cake, auctions, and a band called Dick Dangerous and the Love Bastards. What more could you ask for?!

Taste
Tomorrow night is the last Taste, ever. My favourite club night, gone - and all we'll have left are the slihtly blurry memories. *Sniff* I wasn't too heartbroken to hear I missed the last ever Manga last weekend (then again, Manga have had aout 4 "last evers", so pardon me if I don't believe it's the real thing), but Taste was the best night in ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
Wow, last night was...odd. I knew a few of people at the Burns Supper, obviously my friend who invited me and a couple others. I didn't expect there's be so many folk though!
I tottered along in my ridiculously high Gucci shoe boots - happily, about half the folk there were dressed up as well, so it wasn't just me in my tranny shoes. Chatted ( Read more... ) -
Wierd and Woolly
I had a dream I was at work. I know, I know, it’s a sad day when you start to imagine you’re at your desk, even in your sleep. So anyways, in this dream, I was sitting here, doing what I do, minding my own business…and then I noticed the squirrels.
I must be deranged.
Outside, there is an 18st (252lbs) policeman in a fairy suit, collecting for ( Read more... ) -
Big fat burgers (recipe)
I made homemade burgers for dinner last night, which is sadly something I’ve not done in a very long time. This recipe makes about 7x150g burgers, less if you like yours to be huge.
- 450g steak mince
- 3 slices wholemeal
- ½ tin plum tomatoes
- 3 slices wholemeal bread, slightly stale
- 110g (ish) fresh parmesan, grated
- 1 egg
- Fresh ( Read more... ) -
Mini Restaurant Roundup - Patio (Saturday 12 January 2008)
I met everyone (Gaz and Janey, Zena and Westy, Jude, Jen and Gatesy) at Jekyll and Hyde on Hanover Street, which is not somewhere I’ve ever been - though of course I’ve heard about the “hidden” toilets. Maybe quirky on a Thursday night, but probably less so on a heaving Friday night, filled to the brim with drunken students who have no idea ( Read more... ) -

I have now read every archived fic in the veronicalogan community.
I’m a little sad now. :-(
