A pig of a drive home

Had a terrible night's sleep and then drove Florence to Bristol to catch her coach before heading home. Exhausted.

A lovely day

One of the most beautiful weddings and most enjoyable receptions I have ever been to. Congratulations to Russ and Lisa.

Building? What building?

A day trip to Kent

A swanky opening at the new Royal Mail mail centre today. Nice lunch too.

Emma Kennedy - celebrity masterchef and good egg

What a lovely woman . Funny, too. Sometimes, my job is just a joy.

Burrs really disappearing

A grey day in London town

A night with good friends

A really lovely evening yesterday. Seen here with Iain and his girlfriend Karlynn. Not usually so girly, but loving my new dress.

An inspirational evening

Great party for Bax's 50th at the 100 Club in Oxford Street. More importantly, I met Ian Snowball properly, having interviewed him a couple of weeks ago. Meeting him properly, I was totally inspired to get my novel finished and now have a target. On it!

A little bit of history going

The new view from my window. Wish they'd lose the Esso sign!

Nice guys. Surprisingly so

It's surprising how prejudiced you (I) can be without realising it. I was expecting second-hand car dealers but these guys are far from that. Impressive operation and a delightful interview.

A free haircut - sort of

Did some work today as a Secret Shopper. It was very strange. I felt as if I was lying to the poor girl who was cutting my hair. I had no intention of betraying my usual hairdresser, for whom I have a lot of loyalty. After all, he is fighting a tough battle every six weeks.

Should I worry that I'm liking Plan B?

I'm looking forward to seeing the new Sweeney movie. Here's my blog about Plan B . That's not really a non-sequitur.

Radio interview at stupid o'clock

I LOVED doing this interview. Iain Lee is so easy to talk to. Listen at one hour, 22 minutes

... Which then brought me to this:

'We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars.'

Saw this and had to find out more

Image
It's amazing the things you can see for the first time that are fascinating. Reading more about this, I totally get it.

It's been too quiet ...

For a while, I've had plenty to say and no words to actually express it. My life is changing in strange ways and I'm enjoying it. Sometimes it's amazing how much difference a change of attitude can make to life.

An amazing night

The Olympic Stadium is something to behold. Sat right behind the flame.
