The older I get, the more I adore romcoms. I’ve always had a soft spot for them – my favourite film of all time is Some Like It Hot – but now I don’t bother to pretend I like ’em quirky or with subtitles, I’ll frankly watch any old dross as long as it’s got a happy …
So I’ve been persuaded, recently, into the world of waxing. Various friends say that, if you’ve been doing it for 20 years, your hair more or less gives up the ghost and doesn’t bother to grow back. Of course, I haven’t been doing it for 20 years, but for some reason I decided to start …
Supported post I count myself lucky this year that I have not come under huge pressure from my little treasures for Unsuitable Items. Most Septembers, I have been held hostage while terrorist demands, for anything from high heeled school shoes (yes, it is possible to get them, even Clarks have the odd brainstorm, and of …
For all those mummies whose children have gone back today and who are finally putting their feet up and enjoying the peace missing their little dears terribly, here are some wonderful TV memories from the lovely C in California: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQHB1zd1f5M&feature=related And: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5SxC1azbjY&feature=related Or even: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_Vh8JJR1OQ&feature=related Ah, the bitter-sweet sting of nostalgia! Will anyone ever sigh …
Sponsored post We came back from our many staycations (of which more in future episodes) to a satisfyingly huge parcel. It turned out to be from those delightful people at Tesco! As you see from the pictures, a frenzy then ensued as we ripped open the brown paper, revealing a lovely big sturdy black box, …
This month we’ve been really lucky and had lots of lovely goodies to try out. My favourite has been Fade Out day cream. As my friends know, I have an almost pathological hatred of getting sunburnt, and at the first faint glimmer of English sunlight I break out the factor 50. One tiny bit of …
Sponsored Post I’ve just found this priceless video, acted by five year olds, on road rage. Do give it a click, it’s horribly funny – and I mean horribly, because apparently the children scripted it themselves, based, one can only assume, on what they’ve already seen on the roads in their short little lives. The …
Phew, we had a really busy weekend. No sooner had we washed the camping grass out of our hair, clothes, car, my handbag, and the cat (who didn’t even go camping) than we were off to make pizzas. Now I don’t particularly like pizza, and I had assumed this outing would be one of many …
I can’t belive no one told me about camping before! Well, obviously that’s unfair. People kept on telling me, and I just put my hands over my ears and sang a merry tune. What I can’t believe is that I didn’t listen when people told me about camping before. Yes, it can be a tad …
I never, ever thought this would happen. I’m in complete shock. I don’t know quite how it’s all come about. But I am doing something, tomorrow, that I always swore blind I would never do. Which I never thought I could ever be persuaded into. Which I’ve always thought should be made illegal anyway. Yes, …
