it’s really really really horrid outside.
nasty scary thunder and lightning that makes me go alittle weak at the knees. I also know that the second I step outside this building I’m going to be soaked to the skin, and then I’ve got to sit in my wet clothes all evening. humph.
But… I’m [...]

A glimpse of summer has been offered to those in the UK… well in London certainly, I’m not sure if it’s not raining in Scotland or Belfast.
It’s been beautifully warm and sunny and, as always happens in these instances – particularly the first one of the year – is that almost everyone goes way [...]

I am probably the most neurotic tonight that I have ever been.
I’m PMSing like I’m on speed.
I’m spoiling for a fight and I don’t care who with. It’s like I’m posessed. I had no idea that I could get this angry. Ever. Let alone for no particular reason.

When I was 12 I was pretty good at Cross Country. I represented my school at county level and really loved it.
It was at this point I said that one day, when I was old [...]

Wednesday night was Duran Duran at Wembley Arena. The first time I’ve seen the original 5 members of the band playing together.

It was amazing. Simon Le Bon has clearly been back to the singin teacher ’cause he hit every note. They played a mixture of the hits you’d expect and then [...]

Welcome! This is my new site. Take your shoes off… make yourself comfortable. I intend to be here for some time!
When I came home last night the Cherry Blossom had arrived on the trees by my flat. New Beginnings.
This week I started my new job at 6music. A new building, [...]
