Botox. During all the recent media coverage of the floods, I noticed several female presenters standing in howling gales with totally smooth faces, apparently unable to screw their eyes up against the wind and rain. Looked very strange to me.

Not observing things anymore, nor cherishing the memory.


Instead seeing things through the eye of your smart phone and then having to share this with everyone you know three steps removed.


Worse still, being interested in what others are sharing on social media.


Ironic, that I am using social media to share my hatrid of instant information and social media.

Yes Jeremy!!! That's the sort of beard! Not the "I've had one for years because it suits me and/or I can't be arsed to shave". It's the self conscious, hipsteresque "ooh look at me, with my big bushy beard" (with or without beard comb) that gets on my wick.

Ooh, I LOVE salted caramel, though granted it's only the same principle the cookery teacher at school used when making biscuits.


I'd agree about accessory dogs though.


Especially carried while wearing trannie shoes, tramp stamp, Croydon facelift, tarantula eyelashes, scousers, botox, trout pout and tango spray tan.


I feel cleansed now.

It is spreading like a disease. Glad I don't work in an industry where I had to face that all day as I would feel duty bound to correct the user.

Yes, see also 'right' at the end of each sentence. Ok to use sparingly but at the end of every sentence becomes hard on the ears.


There is a great Eddie Izzard sketch where he bemoans the over use of the word 'awesome' by Americans.

    • Yes, I have. We have gone fruit (seed/nut and mushroom) foraging in and out of London. I'll just recommend a couple of places I've found most rewarding. Wormwood Scrubs: you'll find blackberries, plums, sloes and apple trees. Holmewood (train journey, then either bike ride/cab to the top of the hill or a very long walk): bilberries galore! Be prepared to spend a few hours picking. It's a lovely area to explore and I am sure there are other wild fruits (I've only been twice due to the distance).
    • Had a green woodpecker visit our back garden this morning. Appeared to be eating ants or ant larvae.
