I'm really laughing tonight at Star Stories, I have to get it on DVD!

And at Goths in hot weather

1. I love Ironik & Chipmunk doing Tiny Dancer


2. Maximo Park's album is a little bit crap, although I like it better having seen them live.

3. Yeah Yeah Yeah's album, first 2 tracks followed by track 4 are IMMENSE. the rest is leetle beeet dull.

4. Silversun Pickups album is IMMENSE, come see them live, tickets for Rescue Rooms selling fast appaz.

5. been out a while, but I love The Joy Formidable's album

6. Could Kelly Clarkson be any better? "I Do Not Hook up" = made me want to listen to Heart Of Stone by Cher. I'd post the video but You Tube is crap now.

7. That cunt Lily Allen's new song makes me want to stab her and piss in the holes. Nearly as annoying as "Alfie"

Show us yer muscles!

My brother and his mates were seriously terrified of him as kids. I always thought he was an urban myth, but there he is, on the actual internet!!!

(This will mean very little to anyone not from Merseyside, but I'm chortling away and on the phone to my brother!)

Friends list tidy coming up, so if you're still reading but never posting or commenting, just drop me a message here to say if you want me to keep you on my FL.

Snog, Marry, Avoid is the best chavvy TV show since Marbella Belles.

OMG....His style icon is Jodie Marsh!!

Does anyone else have a Goodreads profile? Or want one? Add me! I'm trying to do a book a week again this year, so far on target (just)!

I just watched Rebecca for the first time. Which is a bit weird considering the novel has long been a favourite of mine. The opening speech of the film is completely CRAP. That sort of spoiled it all. I know that first paragraph so well.

What I did like about it was the debonair Laurence Olivier as Maxim De Winter.

Anyway, I'd like them to remake it, I don't see any harm in it. Amazingly, it was the only film directed by Hitchcock to win an Oscar.

I'm feeling a bit better.

Police helicopter flying over my house. It just makes me scared there is a murderer on the prowl who is going to break into my flat and slay me.

Probs should stop watching Crimewatch.

Somehow I've managed to end up with tickets to see Blur one weekend and Oasis the next. 

Kasabian and The Enemy are supporting Oasis (only to be expected).

PLEASE GOD HELP ME, DON'T LET KAISER CHIEFS SUPPORT BLUR!

Maybe you don't know how much I love the Antiques Roadshow. Little old ladies bringing in their prized possessions only to discover that it is only worth £15. I love the crushed look on their greedy faces. I love hearing lovely stories about how people came by their possessions. I love it when some one says "Oh the value isn't important" with pound signs in their eyes. I love it when the experts waffle on and the people aren't interested in anything other than the value. I really love the limited responses that people give to the values. Oh I love it.

So imagine my HUGE disappointment when the first million pound valued item wasn't a jar that had been in someone's shed for 30 years, but in fact one of the early mock ups of Anthony Gormley's Angel Of The North. And imagine how pissed off I was when it wasn't brought in by an old lady hoping for a cruise out of it, but by a man from Gateshead council. And imagine my disgust when the "expert" managed to put a value on it at a million quid, cos recently one twice the size was auctioned for 2 million pounds.

They so should adopt Joe's theme tune though!

That new "Wear a Seatbelt" ad campaign, where they say that the guy dies because his internal organs keep travelling... well, how would wearing a seatbelt help that? Me no understandy, surely if your skeleton stays where it is, your internal organs will bust out, but if your body kept travelling, well wouldn't your organs stay inside your skeleton?

Really I honestly don't understand.

Nor do I understand why I'm watching the "Celebrity" Scissorhands final!

This hideous rainy weather has a plus point.

UGG boots will get ruined or not be worn!

A tactical advantage in my war against the vile sheepskin foot gloves!!

I watched Secretary for the first time last night and I really enjoyed it. But what really stood out was that James Spader ALWAYS plays massive perverts.

You know what is a really weird experience? Going into a charity shop and looking at the racks of clothes, and noticing that many of the items for sale are identical to items you already have in your own wardrobe! This happened to me today, and it freaked me out. Not only that but they were on the £1 bargain rail! Do I really have such shit clothes?

I read with extreme interest this article linking musical taste to personality.  What do you reckon to it? Do you fit in with the personality profile for your preferred musical taste?

I'm watching Grosse Pointe Blank, which is one of my favourite films. I'm bored so here's a list of my favourite films.


1. Dirty Dancing. best film of all time.

2. Pretty In Pink. I love everything about it, apart from Andie's horrid prom dress at the end.

3. Deathproof. Best chickflick ever! I whooped and cheered at the end.

4. The Wizard Of Oz. I don't even have to say anything about it.

5. Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! similar reasons to Deathproof really!

6. Raining Stones. I love Ken Loach and think this is my favourite.

7. Grosse Pointe Blank. Great music, John Cusack at his sexiest, and I love Dan Ackroyd in it too.

8. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka obv.

9. Star Wars. Its just so familiar, I know all the words!

10 Mary Poppins. I nearly had a heart attack of joy when I saw Bert's actual candystriped jacket at Disneyworld!

I think this list proves I am a girl!

You see stories like this one about John Cusack all the time.

But if the stalker isn't mentally unstable somehow they must just be like you or I? So, to that end, if you were going to stalk a celebrity, who would it be and why?

I'm more shocked about Peaches Geldof getting married to some strange man than I was about Heath Ledger dying!

What happened to Faris Rotter? My Heat from last week says he is her boyfriend.  Suddenly she's getting married to other people.

My new year's resolution to buy Heat every week was the most infuriating resolution ever. I've stuck to it too! How sad?

OH GOD NO! WOGAN'S QUIT EUROVISION. A sad day...

If I were the singer in Thomas Tantrum I'd SUE the BBC

"

Thomas Tantrum are a Southampton based quartet, who sound a little like the Ting Tings with a much fuller guitar-led sound.

It's also partly due to Katie White lookalike singer Megan Thomas who describes playing Reading as a "dream come true".

Thomas Tantrum release their debut album in August

Just for comparison, here is a picture of that dog out of The Ting Tings....
