Remember The Snowman?

Remember when I saw a flashing Snowman in August? Well, I went in to Shrewsbury again with Karl at the weekend and couldn’t see it at all. I think they’ve got their a bit seasons mixed up. Oh, did I mention that my next-door neighbours put their tree up in the middle of November? That’s… read full entry »


Some Links.. & Some More Links

Because it’s been a while since I’ve posted a completely pointless plug-only post, and you are probably fed up of my nose-picking post with associated mental-imagery. Threadless.com: Scrabble t-shirt — this is why I wish I had a decent card, instead of just a crappy British debit card that they don’t accept so please stop… read full entry »


You Shall Pick Your Nose

This is the best thing I’ve read all year: Picking your nose and eating it is one of the best ways to stay healthy, according to a top Austrian doctor. There’s medical evidence for this, I swear: “Medically it makes great sense and is a perfectly natural thing to do. In terms of the immune… read full entry »


Nothing’s Simple!

I can’t have a crochet hobby without some wool. Pretty obvious statement really, but a good point all the same. I went surfing for wool on the Internet yesterday with the preconception that I’d be able to find a website, specify whether I wanted thick or thin, choose a colour and have it sent. I… read full entry »

Visitor Survey

If you’ve got a spare 40 seconds or so, I would appreciate it if you could answer a few questions! Firstly, go take a peek at my past layouts page.

web stuff

So, if you didn’t see Karl’s edit on the last entry, the ISP issues have been fixed. There was a router down or something at Tiscali. Grr. Anyway, fixed.. which means I can now catch up on stuff. I’ll reply to e-mails etc as soon as possible. If you use Firefox: check this out. The… read full entry »


Holiday

Off on holiday to Wales (UK) tomorrow morning and I won’t be back until Monday (I think).. have a good weekend everyone!


X Factor

I have to admit — rather grudgingly — that I watch the X Factor. I can’t stand the arsing about at the end and the “TEXT A B or C to VOTE” bollocks, but the auditions are a supply of hilarity. The contestants are usually pig-ugly (no offence Emily, your pig is cute) and have… read full entry »

The Cricket

We won the cricket! Some silly Ashes thing that only happens because the Australians beat us and so we burned the wicket — or something. I only found that out last night. Hoorah! Anyway: why am I celebrating this? No, it’s not because I’m a sporty person. I miss when I try to kick a… read full entry »
