Went to see Indy (again*) at the cinema last with Main Squeeze (there, I said it – happy now?!) and loved, loved, LOVED seeing all the girlies filing in to SATC in the next door screen. Due to ‘conflicting work schedules’ my girls and I are waiting til next week to see it (plus we [...]

The return of Ten Years Younger and not much has changed. They’ve had a nip and a tuck here and there with a new dental lady and make-up artist, but other than that it’s the same old same old. This week it was ex naval mum of many Amanda, who’s real age was 38 but [...]

After weeks of utter disbelief at how slippery Michael ‘Sophocles’ Sophocles managed to grapple onto his position in ‘the interview from hell’, unlike the rest of the British viewing public I’m actually sad to see him go. Yes he was the ultimate damp squib, but think how funny he would have been in next week’s [...]

Eurovision
I’ve not sat down to watch this properly since the days of Katrina and the Waves. I remember sitting on the sofa at home, screaming myself hoarse when we won (it was a cracking tune). Labour had just swept to power, the nation were singing manically to “Things Can Only Get Better,” I was wearing [...]

There are certain tasks I look forward to each year on The Apprentice. The annual ‘get as many things as you can on the list at as cheaply as poss’ task, the ‘advertise some crap task’, the great-for-comedy-value ‘selling things on QVC’ and of course, the final ‘throw a party with all those who [...]

A day-trip to London yesterday, mainly to see the Indy preview (which I’ll touch on later but am not keen to spoil). The day started with a trip to the Imperial War Museum to see the Ian Fleming exhibition. Badger Mum assures me I spent a lot of my childhood in the war museum *insert [...]

Well, I managed it. Went home straight from work and didn’t surface til this morning. Didn’t even pop out for a bottle of fizzy pop and some fags. I’m rather proud.
So things are taking a rather sinister turn over on Oaks, with Darren now roped into the killing of Sean Kennedy debacle. For the uninitiated: [...]

This is weird. I’d always thought of him more as the Artful Dodger. See…?

Ooh, I do hope this turns out OK as it’d be Very Good News, I think. If the powers that be *have* to do a remake, then I’d rather have Willis saying The Line and sucking on a cigar than any of those others that were apparently tipped for the role (oops, there I go [...]

Not quite sure what to make of this little news item. I mean, obviously it’s terrible for the boy and his parents – he’s been left quite badly brain damaged, which is a terrible tragedy, but… I dunno, when I were a lass, there was a generally consensus among us kids that, when using bouncy [...]
