It's because it won't pass an ethics committee that the social behaviourists and sociologists ogle BB and fulfil their worst senses with the visualisation of highly and dubiously manipulated individuals acting out anyones worst nightmares in group dynamics and behaviours. I do not watch the programme but I certainly heard enough about what goes on more…

I was actually looking forward to big brother! I mean I watched the first one and they were all very freaky! Yet they all seem so boring now.... hmmmm it's just a plain freak show! If it weren't for radio 1 telling me about it all the way to work, I doubt I would even check it out anymore! more…

I think what it is about BB is that we all see a little of ourselves in the people on the screen and get a reality check. more…

Hi C.
Well thank goodness for innocent ignorance. My boss still has difficulty finding the start bar. Has never heard of an electronic blackberry (damn silly name anyway) and attempts to reach me at home are usually met with "I'm in the bath".. or I am out shopping at some random location! He did manage to get hold of my mobile number at more…

You should put the assessment forward as an essay, could go a long way into explaining blogging, and what people expect from blogging more…

I just write what i like. sometime like you i wonder what people will say but ultimately this is a free forum where one can express themselves. we don't have to be rude to each other but if someone is rude that's their issue not mine. i love the comments too. otherwise the'd be no point if we didnt get feedback. support is great also when having a more…

Your blog mirrors some of the thinking I have been doing over the last few days. I started off by considering why I started blogging, and about the flowing stream of consciousness that comes to life in blogdom where it might not otherwise see the light of anything. There are so many variations of blogs on offer, a cacophony of communication to su more…

Agreed, lot of hassle and a bit intimidating at first but after I worked out how to handle it (pretend wedding ring) it was fine, feel much happier about things now... xx more…

I think people are quite careful in their comments

Certainly some of the things I have said about my relationship...well, my real life girlfriends would give me a total ticking off and tell me to stop being so fecking selfish. I haven't had that at all.

Oh!that's not why i like blogging by the way!People let me get away wi more…

Blimey!

On your own?I just booked a ticket to Portugal. I'm going alone because I want to and I know Sagres well enough to know its a great place for a lone girl to cycle and swim around in for a week and I'll get cheap accomodation from the ladies at the bus stop...but i thought about Morrocco.

I have been there..Taradoun more…

I blog just for the record, always wanted to have a "blow by blow" ;) account of all my encounters, simply because some of them have been so unusual, or on the other hand many others can relate but would never be so honest.
I had a huge response (both positive but to my surprise alse VERY critical) after I wrote about sex during my perion, I more…

Good points. Well made. Personally, I blog for sheer pleasure. Just about everything I post makes me laugh. The comments are just a bonus. Cheers. Steve. more…

I was having a similar dilemma in Top Shop the other day over a little puff ball skirt which looked so cute BUT i wore one the first time around....

It was only £25. I didn't buy it.

I think as long as you don't wear a pork pie hat you will be fine...hang on , when was this posted...oh, O.K...please God tell me you didn't more…

You took my very thoughts out of my mind - you'll look and feel just great - and will probably be the very best there.

Thank you all...after raiding my wardrobe, I have narrowed it down to

Dark brown cords ( bum looks good) or jeans ( bum also looks good)

either a black wraparound top (full sleeved) or a little printed brown silk and chiffon strappy top with stroky shrug)

I do not for one moment consider my self a fashion guru, but one thing I have noticed that would surpass societal classes is the bohemian look, it could be gypsy or flamenco(pardon the spelling) flowing skirts on boots, and similar top, I cannot describe it, but I would know it if I saw it, look at the earings that Accessoriez used to sell 2 years more…

I'm also thinking jeans and a plain vesty type top. Jeans that make your bum look great and a top that makes your boobs look great. Although I'm guessing not too much skin, coz it is a concert not a nightclub!!!!
Smart trainers would be good too, something comfy!!!!
Have fun, let us know when you're about to be named as one half of a ce more…

"Quentin Crisp was right when he remarked, 'fashion is what you adopt when you don't know who you are.'"

I love that! My most used quote of his is "why clean? when after 2 years the dust doesn't get any thicker".

I like the idea of the friendship P45-after all when a relationship ends, usually both people know about it but it's different with the friendship thing, you often don't quite know where you stand.
In my "address book" I have:
-a "friend" who just spent New Year's with my ex and his new squeeze in France
-a girl I who got a job th more…
