A Very Modern Fairytale

Once upon a time a beautiful young student was working very hard on her essays when she decided to take a little break, after all she had been slaving away with work for a while now and felt it was time to attend to some…well, natural duties. She bounded down the stairs and skipped over [...]

It's Official: Geeks are In

If Cosmopolitan is the Bible of love, which sadly to some people it is, then apparently Geeks are the way forward! I guess I’m an expert in geeky other halves as mine squeals at the sight of anything Apple Mac or X-Box 360 related but now knowing it’s actually alright for me to find that [...]

Wow..

I came across this lovely discovery this afternoon, it’s none other than David Bowie’s mug shot from 1976! I think he was arrested for possession of drugs with Iggy Pop? I must say this is the best mug shot i’ve ever seen! I don’t think anyone other than Bowie could make a mug shot look [...]

When things don't go your way

I had the unfortunate experience this morning of opening the door to a Parcel Force worker pretty much as naked as i could be when answering a door..

Home, Sweet Home

Dorothy once said “There’s no place like home..”, and quite right she is. This is the way I felt when returning to the house from my lecture today.
I wouldn’t say the new house is particularly a home just yet, we’ve only been moved in a few weeks and I haven’t even got my own [...]
