We went to the Natual History Museum yesterday. It was a lot of fun…except for the millions of screaming children and several unwashed adults. We saw an animatronic teenage (in size, not temperament) T-Rex, a big blue whale, experienced an earthquake and saw young Elvis. He’s alive and well and visiting the NHM. Seriously, this [...]

It is rare for me to like a new band. Most of the current popular music is shite. Then came along Glasvegas. That’s right, Glasvegas. They’re from Glasgow, Scotland, and combined it with Las Vegas to make what I consider to be the best band name ever…seriously. You cannot think of two more opposite places [...]

Following on from Friday’s post about our disgusting bathroom, I am now happy to present our new and improved bathroom. The flooring isn’t attached or sealed but we have the power to do so should our landlord give the go-ahead. Until then, it is a fantastic temporary solution to our little problem.

My life is utterly boring. I still have no job, there’s nothing on television worth watching during the day and, yes, even I am growing tired of the US election. There are no new revelations and it’s now just up to the American people to make a decision. So let me turn to a bit [...]

If you’re going to make racist gestures and have someone photograph it, don’t use it as an advertisement for a courier company. Second, don’t do it twice!! I worked with employees of a Spanish company this past year and they were all very lovely people. It’s such a shame their countrymen and women aren’t.

Giant dog turd wreaks havoc at Swiss museum I don’t need to say any more; it speaks for itself.

I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m a fan of Nickelback. I’ve been a fan for years and receive regular emails on upcoming concerts, CDs, merchandise, etc. When I saw the email I received yesterday, though, I seriously considered canceling my subscription. First, it was the ‘Nickelback Party Packs’ subject line that got me. Then [...]

My husband and I are trying to do more outings together around Britain. Instead of spending Saturdays moping about asking the same question over and over (what do you want to do; I don’t know, what do you want to do…) we’re going to go and do things. We even bought several books such as [...]

So I bought a new running top the other day. It’s a fancy, snazzy thing with the supportive bra built in. You can see it here. Now, it seems since I’ve started wearing this top I am getting some very leering, creepy looks from men on bicycles as I run by them. One Mr Yellow-vested [...]
