A really good article on Englishness over... →
LIke the author, the Guardian’s Suzanne Moore, I object to the term “United Kingdom” and always refer to myself as English (as opposed to British). Being proud of my country, England, doesn’t make me a racist. I would never class myself as British because that term encapsulates several countries. Whilst I might well technically be British, I am, by the same logic,...

Good news / bad news
Well the bad news is that I turned a job offer down. I say bad news because it was a brilliant offer, with a great salary, and would have been a tremendous opportunity, but I had to turn it down. I am regretting saying no already.
The good news is that Gold Dust has leaked.

Today
Today is one of those days where it seems everyone’s goal is to irritate me beyond measure. Starting with a rude, ignorant and aggressive bastard on Regent Street, my day was annoying even before I had stepped foot in the office.
A clash with a representative from Ebay, who appeared to have undergone the first half of a lobotomy - but not the second half - only added to my general ennui...

Tori's new teeth
Agh! New teeth! Tori, I love you, but your old teeth were fine. And I am one of the EWF who don’t care if you have surgery or botox or wear a series of less and less convincing wigs. Seriously, the botox and facial tinkering is absolutely fine by me and I support your right to do whatever you like. Weirdly, though, I am not a fan of changing your teeth and I wish that you hadn’t....

iSheep?
Am I an iSheep? Like a lot of people, I logged onto O2 and pre-ordered the new iPhone 5, which won’t get to me for another three weeks. I didn’t even really consider how much the device was (£399.99) or whether it was worth it; I just desperately followed the link to upgrade, and entered all the details as quickly as I could. It’s really not like me to act so impulsively, but...

Tori Amos Tumblrs
If your tumblr URL somehow references Tori Amos there is a good chance I am going to start following you. Bonus points if your tumblr URL is an obscure lyric from the best songwriter in history.

Havoc and Bright Lights
Waiting for this album is killing me. Guardian is one of the best songs Alanis has ever done. I have enormous expectations for Havoc. Roll on 27th August.

Boy Gone Wild
My boyfriend can’t stop listening to Madonna’s Girl Gone Wild. I even hear him listening to it when he’s in the shower, and I’m far away, in the lounge, watching television. He’s obsessed. Must introduce some new songs to him.
