But, you know. I kind of did. Some other quick thoughts: ♥ Icing patriotic fairy cakes and cutting out union jack wall lettering at 2am, when you have ten people arriving at your flat less than 8 hours later, is a really, really bad idea. The rum did not help. ♥ Never thought I'd say this, but Prince William was actually kind of cute...
So, I've decided it's time for a little regular feature action around these parts. Partly to give you all something to look forward to (oh I am ever the optimist) and partly to give me one less blog post to conjure up out of thin air the dark recesses of my increasingly frazzled mind. It's win win. You might recall that when I first...
I can't not mention it - after a long weekend filled with insane amounts of royal wedding coverage, I've got wedding fever. Sorry. (I said I wasn't going to talk about *my* wedding. I make no promises when it comes to other people's, particularly if - like it or not - it's a national event. And I did warn you.) But seriously, what's...
One of my many favourites, by Lillian and Leonard (obvs) I'm back on Any Other Wedding again. I know! It's getting ridiculous. First I was there wittering on about being a lawyer, then I was lambasting the makers of this televisual monstrosity, now I'm going on about my own wedding (because, clearly, I don't talk about it enough. Ha). In all seriousness, I am...
Ha. Just kidding. That's not me. I'm blonder than that. This is me, sporting my new do and, apparently, too much bronzer: Apologies for the lame cheesy grin. And for the one-eye-bigger-than-the-other thing. Never really noticed that before. Hmm. Here, for reference, is the Before: For the eagle-eyed among you - yes, this is the aforementioned sequin leggings outfit Wow, how did I never notice...
Sunday was my granny's 90th birthday. To celebrate this momentous... er, moment, she had a party. We decorated the communal lounge of her sheltered housing complex with garlands of paper flowers, balloons, a big pink sparkly 90. My uncle created an amazing slideshow filled with scores of old photographs spanning probably a hundred years of family history. My mum put together a party playlist,...
Urgent announcement: it has come to my attention that this blog has a hotties tag that thus far has been grossly under-utilised. This is very remiss of me and I would like to apologise for my oversight. Allow me to remedy the situation immediately. Hello lover. I thought you might like to know that Eric Bana is my number one celebrity crush. Not only...
My thighs are on fire. My breath comes out in short, raggedy rasps as I force my heavy legs to keep moving, keep running. Forfuck'ssakehowmuchfurtheristheretogothisishorrendouswhoseideawasthisohshititwasmine. I am a black speck in a vast sea of pink. Pink wigs and pink fairy wings and pink, sweaty faces. A grainy photocopied picture of a smiling man bounces up and down as its wearer pounds along the muddy path ahead of me....
Print by Sapling Press ATTENTION: anyone who is on Twitter - have you tried this??? It's a thingy (yes that is a technical computing term) that predicts what your next tweet will be, based on your previous tweets. Oh. My. God. Since I spent approximately two hours playing with this last night, I thought I would be generous and share with you, dear readers, some...
