If you were on Twitter late last night you may have seen me Tweet something so passive aggressive I wanted to bitch slap myself upside the head. Something about needing someone to tell me everything was going to be OK. Blah, blah. A minor wobble shall we say. I don’t know where it came […]

How many dates until it’s a relationship?
The funny thing about blogging is that you bang on (and on and on in my case,) about your life, having no idea if anyone is remotely interested in what you’re writing about, but you write anyway, just because. Because you can. Because it’s a release, or for support, or just because you enjoy […]
Ups & Downs of Dating Over 40’s
I’ve been analysing the dating scene lately and trying to work out where I’m going wrong. The first thing I’ve realised is that I’m obviously on the wrong dating sites – you pay peanuts, you get monkeys. So, before I dismiss internet dating completely, I think I just need to understand that […]
Online dating – The Gardener
Last Sunday I made the quite frankly stupid decision to go on a date whilst suffering from Woman Flu. Which is like Man Flu – but real. In hindsight, hacking up phlegm over a vodka and Diet Coke is not the sexiest thing I’ve ever done. So, The Gardener (for that is what […]
Review: Shrek the Musical
I was lucky enough to be given tickets to see Shrek the Musical and took Dexter along on Monday evening. I don’t know about you, but I find I have to keep things like this secret otherwise he will literally be asking questions about the event from the moment I tell him until […]
Halloween Pumpkin
I got into my car this morning to take Dexter to Breakfast Club and as we sat down he turned to me and said, “Cor Mum, it smells like my brother’s farts in here.” Which was nice. But he had a point. He did smell a bit rank. Suffice to say, […]
Dating | Rabbit
No, not that rabbit, although, thinking about it, it’s probably worth investing. (Again.) No, I mean the non-stop talking rabbit, rabbit, rabbit. Yup, I’ve been on another shit date again. A little background. I had only spoken to A for a couple of days but he was intelligent, he could spell, […]
No Longer Anonymous
I wrote this weekend about how I went out on Friday night with my best friend and that I’m never drinking again. (The beer with my Sunday roast was lush though.) We had a great night but I wasn’t particularly in the mood to mix with the opposite sex. A first for […]
Dating: The Washing Machine
Last night (Saturday) was the third of three dates this week. My first date this week was great, the second one I haven’t written about yet (but suffice to say, I wouldn’t have been surprised if he had started to make love to his phone mid date,) and this post is about last night’s […]
Sexual Dynamite
It’s not every day you get called Sexual Dynamite. SEXUAL DYNAMITE. Now granted, it was a fabulous girlfriend of mine, Kellie from Big Fashionista that said it, but I like to think she has a good point. (We’ll come back to my fabulous sense of modesty later.) We were talking about […]
