So every summer, there is roughly three to four weeks I spend in isolation in this tiny little shed with no electricity sitting like a forlorn shetland pony peering out of the stable-like split doors at the pitiful British summer rain, squinting desperately in my shadowy cockpit, clinging to my copy of Grazia for dear life as the wind rattles...

So I’m lying here like some kind of beached whale on the sofa, temperature sky high, my back fiercely sweating like a pork chop, my tummy is swollen and I’m majorly sorry for this over-share but I have what many medics refer to as ‘loose motions’. I feel icky, sticky and nauseous. My appetite has long gone and I am... Read the rest of this post...

The other day I was walking through town with my mother when she suddenly announced that she thought I was a control freak. Beg your pardon? A what???? Moi? ‘Don’t be ridiculous,’ I said, before suggesting that she pick up her feet because we were running late by approximately 8.5 minutes. As I briskly power walked along the pavement, tall...

This week I am guna rant about money judgers. One thing that quite frankly gets on my tits is people judging other people for what they spend their money on. Now, we have all heard about yuppies making less financially secure people feel bad about their material inadequacies but I have noticed increasing snobbery of the opposite kind. I mean...

Don’t you hate it when you turn up to a party and someone else is wearing the same thing!??!! I went to my uni ball the other week and not only was someone in the same dress as me, but I kept bloody bumping into her didn’t I! I mean despite my efforts to avoid the girl, she even managed...

So the other day – DON’T ASK me why but I was looking at LOADED’s online website (YES I do feel it necessary to type LOADED entirely in upper case – it’s a word that feels like it should be yelled or something – LOADED!!!). In case you didn’t know (I certainly didn’t till a few days ago) LOADED is... Read the rest of this post...

This week I am going to be sharing my observations and views on COMMUTERS. They are one of the most fascinating sub-groups of human-beings I have ever encountered in my life. Ruthless, determined, brutal and relentless. At first I was rather excited about joining the working world, getting my morning coffee on the way to the station, trundling along with...

So there I was just casually minding my own business, watching some telly on a Saturday night when suddenly I heard a booming voice… ‘You got to be shitting me,’ my dad exclaimed as he clocked that Take Me Out was on. I beg your pardon. You got to be what-ing now? I thought. It was the last episode... Read the rest of this post...

So my mate and I were having coffee the other week trying to get on with some essay work and as usual we began talking about non-essay related topics. Her boyfriend was coming to visit and so she needed to pop into boots on the way home to get some wax strips. It was at that precise moment that I had the revelation that I am constantly at war. Yes, me! The peace warrior that I am is engaged in CONSTANT CONFLICT... and I am not talking about my current altercation with my neighbours regarding my morning Cyndi Lauper singing I see your true colours... NO! I am talking about a vicious confrontation with (dum dum dum) my own body hair. I am talking about the battle of the FUZZ people. And it is Uuuuuur-Gaa-LY!
