There’s a forum that I visit that has an interesting array of topics. On the site there are dozens of discussions ranging from: What to wear to a fashion forward interview. Ancient civilizations that you weren’t taught in school. How little kids have no concept of “morning breath”. The secret societies that run the world. But, at the core of...

Now I’ll be honest. I like Boris Johnson. He is like a lovable floppy haired bear, isn’t he? Our darling London Mayor said some pretty radical statements recently, in his column for The Telegraph, about how people should stop picking on the super rich. WHAT? Super-rich people get verbal abuse? How ghastly. Nobody hates the super-rich purely because they are... Read the rest of this post...

The Facebook ‘Like’ absolutely confounds me. Isn’t it one of the most baffling enigmas of this digital generation? I mean sometimes it’s really obvious what is ‘Likable’ – photos of cats doing crazy shizz with a comical caption generally cracks me up! Like. Other stuff – I just don’t get. Sophie went to pick up some juice from the spa... Read the rest of this post...

Photo via The sun is shining. La la la… Life can be so wonderful can’t it? La la la WHEN YOU DON’T LOOK AT THE NEWS. ‘Whatever you do, DON’T turn on the telly’ my mate exclaimed, appearing in the kitchen as I groggily brewed a cup tea Sunday morning. ‘What? Why?’ I said.

So I previously wrote a blog about Prowlers (click here to read part one). Just to recap, I defined a ‘Prowler’ as a person who has their sights set on your partner.

I am the first to admit that I have this very romanticized image of London-living in my mind. Ooo I’m like London’s Carry Bradshaw.

“If she’s amazing, she won’t be easy. If she’s easy, she won’t be amazing. If she’s worth it, you wont give up.
