Well done Anne! If only the rest were like you…

Has anyone else noticed how you NEVER ever see Daniel Craig and Vladimir Putin in the same room together…..?
This is not, as has been suggested, because Putin doesn’t like James Bond.
It is because they are, definitely the same person. Like in Friends when you never see Phoebe and Ursula together…

I apologise for not writing so much right now, the joys of my final year have finally set in and I have thousands upon thousands of words due in this week about the greatness of trade liberalization and whether eugenics can ever be liberal.

STOP ATTACKING THE BEAR!
I think this has gone just a little bit too far.
Abusive comments left under “anonymous”, no doubt by friends of those involved, are as childish and ridiculous as the claims you are making against TB.

In 2 days I head off to the Caribbean to escape the cold and crazyness and so unwillingly and for the first time in a couple of months ventured into a bikini and to my scales. What followed has terrified me.
My weakness in life is soaps and occasionally when hollyoaks, eastenders or coronation street aren’t [...]

Cameron’s Children
Filed Under Uncategorized | Leave a Comment
I was invited to a group the other day called Cameron’s Children by (soon to be Dr?) John Moorcraft. It refers to the great deal of reserach he has done into the workings and politics of CF and shall be published early next year; I really am rather excited about reading this.

Sorry Gordon

I hear Gordon sent JLS letters backing them for the X factor. Yes. In these times of financial crazyness our beloved Prime Minister is keeping in touch with the youth of today by writing JLS letters of support. Fantastic.
Unfortunately Alexandra won. Should have been Diana. All i can say really.
