It seems I can’t turn on the news anymore without at least ONE story about an attack by a pitbull. Last night’s story involved a guy throwing himself over his dog to save its life whilst it/he was (were) being attacked by TWO pit bull. Off leash OF COURSE. People. If you MUST own a […]

Purple Hair
Yes I did! Because it’s really a cherry cola with blue mixed in, the main effect is a warm red-brown, but the greys (and there are some!) are a lovely purple. I couldn’t be happier. Admittedly it’s not down to my tuckus yet, but I’m starting to feel more and more like myself and less […]
Doctor Doctor
When someone has worked hard enough (whether you personally feel they have worked hard enough aside) to earn an advanced degree, they have also earned the right to be addressed as having done so.

What? Another Blog?
