virtual friends and real concerns
Just heard that one of my virtual friends on thoughts.com, Circe, is in hospital. We rarely message, I don't know if she still reads my stuff, but i do read hers still. We've never met, but we are virtual friends living on different continents learning a little about each other's lives via our......Read More

Desert Island Discs - tracks 4-7
Four more of my desert island discs, as in the tracks you'd have with you if you were on a desert island and could only listen to these ten songs for ever more. I'm not very good at classical music, which given I spent so much of my life in choirs and orchestras is a bit weird. I guess......Read More

Desert Island Discs - tracks 1-3
Or an excuse to find a top 10 songs that I like because - hooray! - I finally tracked one of them down on youtube and wanted to share! I spent quite a lot of time abroad when I was at university - one of the advantages of a language degree - and one of my work placements was at a Relais CAP......Read More

Hired, fired and pterodactyls?
The Apprentice series four has just finished on the BBC. Do you know what? This time it really does look like the right person got hired. My husband and I were incredulous when we saw that four candidates were going to be in the final - we had thought that Lucinda would be swiftly followed......Read More

Small Talk
What's my story? It's the story of a child, a woman, a wife, a mother, an employee, a friend, a believer, a descendant, an ancestor... I hope. It's created from the distillation of the genes of my forebears, mixing and combining over generations to produce me... randomly or by design?......Read More

Yay! good news for Doctor Who
Quick post this as my nice one on embarrassing placenames has just been swallowed by the autorefresh gremlin in my new laptop <sigh> Anyway, the good news is that Stephen Moffatt, who wrote one of my favourite TV series "Coupling" and some of the best and award-winning recent......Read More

Maybe he's a Family Guy
Hooray!  Finally something that both me and my husband want to watch.  It's taken us ages to get into Family Guy but it's fabulous.  Biting satire, hilarious vignettes. Best episode we've seen so far?  The Back to the Future spoof "Meet the Quagmires". ......Read More

Showing off...
Don't ask why but I was just on the internet looking for the lyrics to "Don't Cry for me Argentina"... oh ok, we were just discussing which Lloyd Webber number we'd do if we were in last week's American Idol.  I know, sad.  Even sadder that we watch it in the UK and can't even......Read More

Space Pirates - best kids show on TV!
It's great, there's a few songs that are guaranteed to make my son smile when he's grumpy.  He loves "Incy Wincy Spider" with actions.  He loves a song called "Five Cheeky Monkeys bouncing on the bed", again with actions.  And he LOVES the theme music from the......Read More

Is Belgium French or German? (Citroen thinks so)
Ok, ok, I used to live there. Belgium is not French or German.  I know Belgium is Belgian, or Flemish and Walloon depending on your political viewpoint... but I'm perplexed by the TV advertisement for the new big Citroen C5 that's currently on UK TV. The campaign itself is a bit......Read More
