GHD

Finally found a hairdresser that I like. £44 for a wash, cut, blow dry and colour.

Am really enjoying the new Little Dorrit adaptation, am watching it on BBC HD. When are we getting the next series of Ashes to Ashes???

Half Term. My daughter...

I did laundry, worked, cleaned and got hooked on Vallium.

Wossy

I didn't hear the phone calls made by Ross and Brand. I am not really interested. However, I am quite shocked how the public have turned against him! I always thought he was one of the untouchables. Like Sir Bob and the Queen Mother. Sir Paul (shut it Mrs Weasley) Dawn French and Stephen Fry. How wrong could I be!

Something really bizarre happened last night. We were having a night in with some friends when my best friend phoned and said "turn on Channel 4, quick!" So we did and it was a programme called "Place in the Sun - Home or Away?" People who are buying new homes get to decide whether to buy a house in the UK or abroad. And they show them a few houses. Would you believe...my old house was on there?!?!?! I bloody loved that house. I cant even walk past it for getting upset. I never wanted to leave it and wish I had held on to it. But I couldn't afford it on my own. Anyway, the woman in the programme bought my house and the one in Italy.

Lucky Bitch.

Soccer

Bryant Stunner Earns Robins Premier Cup Win
A stunning strike from centre back Stewart Bryant with 5 minutes left gave a depleted Robins side, missing six regulars, a 2-1 win over a battling Odd Down side in the first round of the Somerset Premier Cup. Toby Colbourne had scored an earlier equaliser for Frome and the win sets up a home tie against Bath City in the next round.

Can you imagine how hard this is to live with right now?

To smack or not to smack...that is the question...

In my absence from internet life, Stew hit my car. He backed into it with his. There is only a tiny mark on the number plate, but I was right angry because anyone who knows me and my car will automatically think it is me who has hit it!

My daughter is cheeky and chopsy. We used to give her small smacks when she was really naughty then stopped. Should we start smacking again? Do you/did you smack your children?

So sorry....

I am alive.

Stew is on a four day week, so I am picking up all the overtime I can squeeze in. I hope everyone got the link I sent with the newspaper article that Stew and Lizzy were in, but here is the photo for anyone who isn't already bored with it!

A couple of things I would like to mention are that, I am not really bothered that Madonna and Guy have split, and I REALLY don't care if Peter Andre and Jordan split. So please, media people, don't boringly bombard us with celebrity marriage stuff. It is tediously dull.


Whilst in Canada, my mum let Lizzy borrow her Sims game for the DS. She brought it home and has suddenly realised that the Sim Girl goes to the toilet. So my daughter spends at least half an hour a day making this poor electronic girl do constant poos.

I seem to be developing an addiction to the Crime and Investigation channel....and alongside that comes a fear that I shall end up in a trailer in the US, getting murdered for my handbag.

Alive and Kicking

• Picked up the Best of Simple Minds at the bootie this morning for 50p!
  
• Sold £94 worth of stuff at the bootie
• Had dinner over at the monster in laws
• Had an Indian takeaway last night and was really pleased that my best friend who came back from Florida yesterday came round
• Wondering why all the best old films have names as the titles. Have recently watched Mildred Pierce, Mr Skeffington, Cass Timberlane, Mrs Miniver (again) and Nora Prentis. I think I should have been born in black and white.
• Wondering what I am going to watch now that Bonekickers (Absolutely impossible, but entertaining) has finished.
• Not looking forward to working Bank Holiday Monday
