Morning everyone, November is fast running away from us, December is zooming into view and we've got our first carol service/celebration next week!!!!! Before I get to that, here's this week: Wednesday: Amy and I will be at CU on Wednesday, and in Starbucks in the afternoon. Remember, if you would rather talk to Amy or me about something away from the Wednesday afternoon session, you can ask to meet...

I Blog Fashion Digest

I Blog Fashion (Free subscription) | 15/11/2009

It's been a long week. Preparing for photoshoots, meeting long lost friends, ditching the diet and surviving dodgy manicures. Read on: 1. Decidedly underwhelmed at the Jimmy Choo for H&M range. Tried on the blue suede shift dress. Verdict? Sack-like. The black suede tassel dress rated slightly better. Could have done with no fringing at the neck. Felt like I could have been going to a fashion-y...

Modern Family, Sky1

thecustard.tv (Free subscription) | 25/10/2009

Apparently the traditional sitcom is dead but hopefully it won’t be long before the irritable, shaky one handed filming technique (just use a sodding tripod!) pioneered by shows such as ‘The Office’ and ‘Curb Your Enthusiasm’ follows suit and it’s hideous amounts of grotesque box sets is banished to the dark hellish realms of the Tesco bargain bin. So it’s...

The not so solid post strike

Norfolk Blogger (Free subscription) | 23/10/2009

The Mirror (which I read today becaus someone bought it in to work) would have us believe today that support for the postal strike is rock solid. This seems at odds with my own experience. I know people still receiving parcels. I myself have received my post for the last two days and plenty of other people tell me that they are also receiving their post. The truth is that there are many in Royal Mail...

State of TV Address

TV or not TV (Free subscription) | 23/10/2009

I’ve had a while now to refamiliarize myself with my surroundings and get fully up to speed (almost) on what has been happening out there in TV land, so to usher TV or not TV back into regular circulation I’ve decided to give what may very well become an annual State of TV Address. A veritable smorgasbord of shows have returned to our screens in recent weeks, often without the slightest...

Stalin and the Stranglers

Learning Through Experience (Free subscription) | 09/10/2009

Two radio news items captured my attention today and the Stranglers sang “ No More Heroes ” as I started to type this, which seemed fitting. The first news item was an interview with the UK managing director of Lego , who told us that the company name Lego was coined by Christiansen from the Danish phrase “ leg godt ”, which means " play well ". The name could also...
