Bloody Typical

Well I am on annual leave now and guess what I am full of cold. Runny nose, sore throat and a bad cough, so I am feeling rather sorry for myself.

30 Day Book Chalenge Day 4

A book you lent out, never got back and miss?
well i haven't get an answer for this question because I must have honest fried because I always get my books back.

30 Day Book Challenge - Day 3

Your favourite book to recommend to friends?
Easy one for me, it has to be A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khalid Hossenni or as i call it one night in New York, as i literally read it in one night in New York! On a more serious note it introduced me to the beautiful country Afghanistan and its struggle and plights. It s a book that will stay with me forever.

The Royal Wedding

Well, even though was working i got to watch it at work and what a magical delight it was. Kate was absolutely jaw droppingly stunning, she reminded me of a cross between Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn. If i am on honest i don't see the physical attraction of Prince William, his brother Harry is far more yummy! But today even i have to admit he looked good. I wish them all the luck in the world

30 Day Book Challenge- Day 2

Your least favourite book of all time?

A.M Holmes - This book Will Save Your Life

A rich man moaning about how terrible his life is. Poorly written nonsense and twaddle, a waste of time and energy. Oh and a terrible cover to top everything off!

30 Day Book Challenge. Day 1

Favourite Book of all time?

This is a toughie but it has to be Anne Franks diary for the simple reason that it is a true story and i don't think that there is anything more powerful than the truth.

I am back!

After a 6 month break I'm coming back to the world blogging! Ive missed the blogging world and the focus it gives you in your life and the skills you gain/sharpen when doing so. The Bloggerverse will be pleased to hear Angel is a big girl now and I am still as mad and passionate about books, films and charity shops as ever! I've let things slide on the writing front but hope to pick that up again. The only major difference now is that i am two weeks away from becoming a home owner!!!!!!!!!! Scary stuff. Look forward to catching up with everything i've missed.

Joan Collins

I am currently watching Dynasty at the moment and I have to say I am becoming a huge Joan Collins fan. She is just fantastic, so elegant and glamorous. I would love to look like her.I have to say as well such a bitch haha. I am going to have to buy lots of Joan Collins DVDS now!

Dream jobs

Recently at work we had a discussions about what our dream (ordinary) job would be. Which may be tempting fate as I work in the NHS. It has got me thinking and i am torn between a professional dog walker or a postman. The main reason I am drawn to these jobs is it must be so lovely to be out walking all day!

Rooney Saga

I am not one for celebrity gossip, sure i like the gossip magazines and sites, but they don't really bother me. But this Wayne and Coleen saga (and to some extent the Cheryl and Ashley Cole saga) really has stired up feelings within me including the following

• How could Wayne do it to his pregnant wife? Does he have no compassion or love for his family?
• why would he do it? hasn't he got enough?
• Where is the young girls morals and values?
• where is there conscience?
• What drives them to do such awful things?

I don't mean to sound mean but i believe in what comes around, goes around. I certain hope Karma comes around and bites these despicable footballers and their "lady" friends on the bum.

For my non-british followers here is what I m taking abouthttp://http://www.newsoftheworld.co.uk/news/943856/Wayne-Rooney-cheats-on-Coleen-again-with-21-year-old-hooker.html

Hindsight

http://http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00tlm9r/Underage_and_Pregnant_Series_2_Cacherrah_and_Chenice/ I was watching underage and pregnant. I really felt for the young girls in this episode.The phrase "isn't hindsight a wonderful thing" springs to mind. I just wish it was not true and you didn't have to go through the pain to learn your lessons in life.

On the buses

This week on the buses I have heard/ seen 3 thing that I have found worrying/encouraging

• Firstly I heard a conversation between a chap and 2 women. He was explaining that he is looking for a apprenticeship for his 15 year old son as he is not letting him go to college as £30 EMA money is shit and he needs to start earning for his mum! a few thing struck me with this is were was the young lads choice in the matter? how irresponsible is the dad?
• Secondly I over heard 2 (i presume 16-17 year old) discussing the amount of money they were receiving for going to college and it was in the hundreds! I was gobsmacked since when did kids get paid to go to college? What really made my blood boil was that they talked about wasting there money on skateboarding, beer etc.
• Thirdly a young couple, or at least the young lass, had left her purse on the back seat of the bus, i called her to let her know. Both her and her chap was so polite and couldn't thank me enough. It really did warm my heart.

You are you what you eat

I always thought that you are what you eat was the name of a pants TV show. But after a week of dieting i think it is a very true statement. For the past year or so i have had chronic indigestion on a daily basis. Last Friday i started eating more healthily abd cutting out the crap in my diet, since then I have had no indigestion, so the moral of the story is you defiantly are what you eat.

What the postman brought me 23

He bought me this lovely acrylic picture of my little lady Angel that i had commissioned from http://http//www.krazykats.moonfruit.com/ it cost £25 and is worth every penny.

If I am missing or dead - Janine Latus

My first thoughts after reading this book was that the author is a very brave lady to have written this book. OK, it is not the best written book i have ever read, but still very good read. It is very thing to say these days that the author poured her heart and soul in to this book. I found it very moving and inspirational.

Trip to the library

I had a walk to my local library and came back with the following audio book

• Dave Gormans Googlewhack adventure


• Ian Rankin Black and Blue


• Sue Townsend Adrian Mole the Cappuccino Years


• Jill Mansell Sheer Mischief


• Trish Ashley A winters Tale

I am a massive audio book fan, they are just brilliant to lay when you are doing the housework!

Becomig more active and earning extra money

After my shock I've realised two things that I would like to change about myself. The first thing is that I have recently put on a lot of weight and so unfit and I am leading a very sedatery life. So on payday I am going to buy a bike to get me moving. I hope to kick start my healthy eating on pay day as well, I have come to the conclusion the saying 'you are what you eat' is very true because eating crap is certainly making me feel crap! The second thing is that i would like to earn a few extra quid so i am going to start selling Avon and I am also considering taking up dog walking as this would help with the getting fit. Also put a bit more effort into the writing career as that can bring in a few extra quid as well........The joys of the modern life!

I am still in full time employment

yay.......... I have my job back! What a relief. It feels like such a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. It sounds like such a cliche but it really has been a life changing experience. When you have faced being made homeless and loosing your lively hood, it sure does make you appreciate every single good thing you have in your life. It also makes you want to strive to be better.

I am not homeless

My landlord has kindly revoked my notice yay.... just need my boss to do the same now!!!!!!

Can things get any worse?

When i started this blog my intention was not too whinge and moan but today I am going to make an exception. Mainly because i received a phone call saying that my new job offer has been withdrawn due to budget constraints in the NHS! So if my landlord and manager wont accept my revoked notices I am jobless and homeless........what a bunch of bastards!
