Yay!!!

Best of all the animals! Results from a fun mash up competition.


Is it Ghostbusters 2?


Sweet children of mine -

Ooh I'm excited...Maximo Park news!
Just got their mailer with details of the new single and album.
Single, Our Velocity, is out on the 19th of March with album following closely behind and coming out on the 2nd of April!

Grrrrr this stuff just really pisses me off!

Formula companies now make all their packaging vague, so you see the brand name rather than the specific product name. So then they can get away with advertising like this. This is from UK Living website. SMA nutrition also have adverts on the channel and online. It's blatantly targeting pregnant women and new mums. They keep getting away with it, nobody is stopping them. We have laws against some advertising but you are lucky if trading standards bother to do anything about it. Our laws are inadequate anyway, we need to adhere to the International Code.
It might seem like an load of old fuss about nothing to most people, but this advertising really does influence mums.
Just look at the results of this survey in the US just proving the influence of formula marketing upon parents.
It would be lovely if we were like Norway.

Well we lost a wall! Luckily just the car park wall and nobody was near it. Some of the other walls where we live were looking rather iffy too.


I was too bothered watching out for the snow coming next week (apparently) that I didn't really notice how bad this wind was going to be.

Well I'm all older now. Spent most of the day rather oddly practising my lactational aim! Jenson developed a rather gunky eye situation overnight so there's nothing better for that than a bit of breastmilk and it's natural antibiotic properties.

Despite his gunkyness Jenson was happy enough to take out for a lovely birthday lunch at The Waterfront Place. My food was just so delicious I actually took a photo! The beer battered fish just melted, I ate extra slowly to prolong the experience. Rarely that happens, I've normally got a small person or three to see too so I wolf down my food. Jenson happily played with the vegetables, flirted with the waitress and nicked some of my "jenga" chips to scoff!



I got a brilliant present from Jon and the boys. A new iPod nano in green. My poor old one looks like a brick in comparison. I remember the days when I was impressed when walkmans could stop at the beginning of the next song when you pressed forward. Perhaps I really am 28 now then. I don't feel it though. I got stuck at 19 in my head.

If you've seen my myspace recently you'll notice my new wintry theme. I'm hoping it'll intice some snow in my direction. Next week is looking very interesting in that department.
I'm of to treat myself with a birthday beer. My favourite one in fact, called Brahma from Brazil.

Diagnosis Murder on the dance floor!

I have always played this silly game where I like to hear the wrong music. Just like Joel "coke copy me" Veitch and his Morris Dancers. I personally lack the software (as you can see) at the moment to adequately create my own goings on in my head (I also need new PC, only got 256 ram and a buggered fan ...I'm torturing the poor thing).
So I play with you tube. I suggested the idea for Jumpen vs Okey Kokey for example and some kindly fellow made it for me.
