Taffboy is the loveliest man on earth. 
He's been coming up at the weekends and taking good care of me. Lots of shit going on at the mo that I just don't want to go into here. But it will all be okay.
Yesterday was nice, we did bugger all the whole day, then I made Malaysian food for dinner, rounded off by making a...

Having a grim time at the mo, dear readers. Taffboy is being a real star and looking after me well. Regular journals full of high jinks 'n' drunken badness to resume soon. Oh yes, and still having my holiday, of course.

Aw poor you! Take care of yourself, lady!

Thank you! 
Get well soon.

Those who know me well will know that I am not a great fan of religion of any kind, despite my love of kitchy 3-D pope postcards and glow-in-the-dark Virgin Marys. In particular I am sick to the back teeth with idiots of any religious persuasion who kick off because someone has had the *shock horror* temerity to challenge their ideas or simply to take...

I can't this trip, sadly. I'll visit after the World Cup, however I plan to take a two-week sabbatical in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
I thought you were still in London?

Fully agree with you there - especially with Blair saying that 'he'll be judged by god' about the war. If he listened to the majority of people in the UK, rather than to the voices in his head and the monkey across the 'lantic, we'd all be better off.
Saw Nick Cave tonight. Fucking BRILLIANT.

oh yes! from the moment the first note was played i was amazed. i'd been to see him at the carling academy last year, but i wasn't feeling very well, so i didn't really pay attention there, so this was more like my first time... the stripped down Mercy Seat was probably my highlight, but it was all good.

well,it's the "worst" (or best) snow-in we've had in over 25 years.
so, yeah, we can beat bavaria this time.
and hopefully we can be excused for blocking italian life for 2 days.
but i bet that even half the snow would have stopped us. we just get paralyzed by snow
ciao!

Happy New Year!
We celebrated in style at Soldatka Mansions. Not many of us in attendance, just me & 2 friends, but we saw the New Year in in style. 3 course dinner and buckets of fizz. We saluted the New Year throughout Europe by toasting each country according to their time zone.
4pm-8pm: Russia, Mongolia and former Soviet republics. Vodka and Red Army music....

hey hey... have you recovered yet - or are the festivities still going on?
I am back!
Today I faced the scary prospect of being stranded in WICK. Not funny at all, as you will see if you click the linky. The plane was incredibly late arriving from Edinburgh and still had to make its way to Shetland before it could turn around, stop in Wick again and transport me to Edinburgh. Hours late (and bladder stretched to the...

I dunno -- you could well have gone to the "re-painted each year" natural pool, now couldn't you?
We had one of those in St. A's -- it was called something like the Victorian Ladies pool and was refreshed by the North Sea so it was always full of slime and seaweed as well as being incredibly cold. Not once in 16 or so years was I ever able to see the bottom of the deep end of that ghastly thing.
Happy Hogm'nay-

My highland homeland is calling me back for Xmas, so this'll be my last journal before Santa comes. Yes, for the next week or so I'll be in the bosom of my family, devouring their whisky(YUM) , pinching granny's cigs and having very long sleep-ins. While shivering lots of course. It is COLD up there.
Alas, I will only have my mother's computer to hand,...

Woohoo! I will enjoy it thrououghly. Even if I can't spell that word...
Got taken out for wonderful Thai seafood dinner last night. YUM. However, did also partake copiously of the Demon Drink and sit up talking shite till stupid o'clock. So a bit snoozy today, haven't done much but sit in the pub drinking orange juice for liver preservation reasons. 
My hair is newly reddened and just about shoulder length now. I am so pleased with it!...

Hee hee! SG got one of my pals into trouble at his work today. He works in this restaurant in Cologne, and his boss googled the name. Imagine her shock 
on finding this journal namechecking her restaurant and my pal, next to lots of scantily clad ladies with tattoos and things. Hee hee! Apparently she just about had an apoplectic fit. Lovely. I am proud....

The end of a broom: I like that idea, and the mental image that came with it. . Yeah you find out that most folk aren't as they seem in their 'public persona' & often not for the better. I'm glad you made sense of it - I just re-read it and my diction was a little 'off' in some places.

As for guys, I think I should just give up on them completely, I have the worst luck
Dammit. Now I've got The Commodores playing in my head.
