Life Envy!

Rosie has the best accessories - Jason Statham is the hottest accessory, I mean look at him - he is a real man and a half........ got extreme life envy. Seriously, the girl has got it all, brilliant boots, hats and dresses and then she is always accompanied by Jason. I think the scale of fairness in this world is totally favouring her opposed to me. Why!

I might have to go and buy the boots, hat and dress to cheer myself up as I am failing in finding the perfect boy accessory.

I have been on three dates - with a stripper - less said best mended...... I didn't know he was a stripper - he said he was a journalist - lying! I then went on a date and had a nose bleed - none starter...... no chemistry. Then last night I spent my time flirting with a gorgeous geordie guy - who was hot but only noticed me when I was being chatted up by someone else. Men say women are fickle - this guy was playing far too many games - flirting then diverting....... hate that!

Anyway, the guy I ended the night with was the quiet one who was a dark horse, he turned out to be a real contender and now he is not answering my texts and he was lovely and funny. Bugger!

The moral to the story is accessory shopping is much easier than finding a man - I should stick to what I know best. I am sure love is out there somewhere for me.

Thanks for tuning in.

Nose Bleed Central

Omg! Yesterday was very random. I went to the gym, as I have been for like three weeks solidly and as I was running I took a deep breath in and wham my nose exploded all over the treadmill as I breathed out - can you imagine my surprise! There was blood spattered everywhere it was so embarrassing. I had to get off the treadmill and run to the changing room. It took ages for it to stop - I then went back upstairs to where I had been training to wash down the treadmill and got a lecture from the woman next to me - she thought I was getting back on it - I am not that mad!

So nose bleed event over I go to Asda and yet again, within half an hour I am asking where the avocado's are and my nose erupts again - why? Why would that happen? I have never taken anything up my nose - I can only imagine pain and I don't do that, so why was my nose exploding like Kerry Katona in Asda - felt like a basket case............. got some complimentary tissues from them though ha ha!

Embarassing events over I survive the rest of the day and only worry 5% about my state of health which is not bad for me. Oh yes been on google and self diagonosed only the once.

Well, I mentioned in my last blog I am dating and so with the offer on the table to go for a drink I get dressed and go out(that's also another story) - only to get to the bar with the new guy and as you can only pre-empt my bloody nose erupts again ........ fortunately I had already told this guy it had happened to me twice already today so it wasn't a shock to him, but to the rest of the pub everyone just looked at me as if I was Kerry Katona's druggie mate. It was horrendous! I hurried off to the toilets and sustained the bleed and returned to my date by which time there was a gang of yorkshire blokes sat with my date offering me tissues and dates - bad! Think I am going to leave the treadmill for today and the dating for a very long time. ha ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My life is mad! Discuss nose bleeds! Why the fook do they happen? Stress has already been eliminated - I am on garden leave, stress free! Plus, I eat stress for breakfast and I have never had nose bleeds.................

It is what it is!

Sorry I have not been very attentive to my blogging lately i have been busy home making and have been a bit quiet, nothing to report so far until this week when I decided to kick start my love life back into action - prompted by my 76 year old next door neighbour telling me to get on tineternet to find love..... that's where she found her Bill.

So, I updated my profile with some photo's, hate all that and did some spiel! Then to my surprise I got a lot of messages, as you do. I whittled it down to 3 and made contact - 1st was boring so that ended, 2nd think he could tell I wasn't just going to put out for him so that ended and the 3rd one showed promise. We arranged to meet at a pub near me, very considerate since I am new to the area - he would drive over and it was all good. That was until the day of the date and he must have been very excited because he sent me a picture of his morning glory! at 6.am. I didn't know what to say or do - so I sent it to the girls for their advice - well if you put it out there what do you expect! We had a laugh throughout the day and needless to say I didn't entertain him with a night out of stanners fun.

So tinternet dating is what it is - plenty of fish - should be called plenty of sex! Beware!

Will let you know how the dating goes....

Let the fight begin!

For those of you who don't know, I am in dispute with a buyer over a wardrobe I sold on ebay. Can you believe they favoured the buyer on the wardrobe saga. So, the fight is on! I called paypal who are saying I need to pay the scammer her money back while she is still in pocession of the wardrobe...... so I told them and they have said if I sold the wardrobe undamaged and the damage has been done in transit it is the couriers fault and their insurance should cover it which is what I have been saying all along.

I have now contested the case and am currently watching this space to see whether justice prevails or there will be fisty cuffs! Discuss and say a little prayer that it all goes my way please!

Harrased by Hounds!

I've been harrassed by hounds today - twice!

First, I decided to keep up the running regime - been training for the last five days, this is commitment for me! This is progress, been paying the gym £35 a month and not used it and I bought a shit load of sessions at good vibes to go on shake your fat class - otherwise known as power plates - £350 down the swanney! I have been pathetic on the old fitness melarcy.

However, my run today attracted what I can only call random heckling from the local lads at the bus stop. I ignored them and pursued my run and hoped for the best that by the time I returned the bus would have come and they will have gone. I went a good twenty minutes further and returned only to find that the bus stop is the local hang out and not in use for waiting for the bus - such a fool. As I ran past this time other side of the road they had to shout louder and one of them shouted "uh! stiff nips" what a dirty dog! So I replied - thanks! to which I got a huge cheer! A pack of hounds! I was quietly pleased really though ha! ha! I thought wolf whistling was dead - god bless the true british male, they make us women feel alive.

So off I trotted to go home to brag! While in the garden stretching so I don't end up looking like a cripple tomorrow, my dog only decides that he wants to hound me too. Doing the downward dog - he only decides he wants to go under me as if I am a man made bridge. Harvey - my dog then decides he wants a cuddle and then he thinks - oh! salty, I might have to lick her arms........ so if I still have bingo wings - it's because I have been offically hounded. He is cute though!

So do you like to be wolf whistled, if so what are your top tips! Discuss

Nana's gone ebay bonkers



Well, I did it to myself! I stitched myself up... I bragged to my Nana about my capabilities on ebay - she was not only impressed - she honoured me with the task of selling her vinyl record collection ofa all 235 of them - yes she has counted them all and is currently dividing them into genres. She has a variety from The Rolling Stones being one the best along with Morecombe and Wise Bring Me Sunshine to Jim Reeves and someone called Deanne Durhim - who the hell is she!


What have I done?......... my mum wants me to sell her tv stand and my nan is also saying she has a load of betamax tapes - I have opened a right old can of worms - I think the term is BUGGER! Methinks, I need help saying NO! It seems to be out of my vocabularly. I have problems with the word no and no problem saying Yes!


I am losing the battle to use my garden leave for anything other my mum's and nana's whims. Thank god I am moving up to Leeds at the end of the month - this move might just save me.


Discuss - am I weak or just generous beyong belief - think about it 235 records to load onto ebay at a rate of 10 minutes per auction, you decide!


Thanks for tuning in.

Gardening Leave........ Oh what to do?



I have recently got a new job & as it is for a competitor I have been fortunate enough to be given gardening leave...... To those who don't know what this entails, it means I am being paid by my previous employer ie. New Look not to work for 10 whole weeks, it's like nearly 2 whole sumer holidays. It's brilliant! I am so grateful I cannot tell you.


However, I am in danger! I am in danger of the following happening to me..............


* My mum is an avid gardener and has a a ton of cerasot she wants both myself and my brother to reinact the Karate Kid scene with - paint the fence. Next she will have us waxin on and waxing off. She has a spetic tank for our Harvey's dog poop that she wants us to install too the list goes on and on.


* My mum has recently retired and is at present redecorating and has already had both myself and my brother, along with two handy men in B&Q calculating how many tiles she will need to tile her small toilet room and then if that wasn't enough how much grout she will need. It has been tough today.


* I have booked a hairdressing appointment for 9.30am as I have watched Jeremy Kyle 3 days on the run now. This behaviour must stop.


So as you can see I am having to run a diary to list the things I want to achieve opposed to the things my mum wants me to achieve.


The things I need to achieve are


* Research for s/s - stories

* Sell unwanted clothes on ebay which by the way is becoming quite lucrative already put £100 in the bank this week.

* Finish book with my lovely friend Sheila and get it published.

* Move home to Leeds yippee!

* Thank my friends at some point

* Book my flight to Honkers

* Do the shops - so I know what's going on

* Win the lottery! I am in it to win it

* Shave my cat - no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

* Party in the new garden

* Get my money back from the bank he he! I have a claim in place & was due to go on ITN tonight but not in London so lost my 15minutes of fame. Will have to cue up for x factor again

* Buy new outfits for new job

* Join the gym

* Buy a sofa bed

* Buy a new car


So the top and tail of things is - I need top tips of how to stay on track and not to get side tracked by my mum's garden needs or I will truly be doing garden leave. Discuss.


Thanks for tuning in
