I read the following brainteaser in “Weekend” (The Guardian’s Magazine) the other day. Can you work out the answer?
The Police raid a house to arrest a suspected murderer – all they know is that his name is Peter. They burst in on a lorry driver, a mechanic and a fireman playing poker and they arrest the fireman. [...]

Can you see me?
Here’s the moment I burst onto the Bollywood scene. I’m somewhere in the crowd (about 2 minutes 45 seconds in) dancing and singing along to the music.

Random facts about me
Genevieve tagged me a while back to reveal seven random facts about myself. I did something like this once before, but I’ve managed to come up with eight more … although one of them is not true… can you guess which one?!
Here goes …
1. My birthday is the same day as Kylie Minogue’s … although I’m five [...]

Creative blogging
I have another blog award! This one comes courtesy of Jane over at I carried a Watermelon -THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
Wish I could display my awards in the sidebar but I think I would have to pay a subscription to WordPress to be able to have extra widgets … is that right?

A bit of overdue blog admin
Mya presented me with a shiny new award a couple of weeks ago.
I apparently made her day by suggesting that her boobs may be bigger than she thinks they are (?!).

Star spotting … sort of

Goths and dog leads
Very strange. Why didn’t he just carry her onto the bus or put her into a giant pet carrier or something? That’s what you’d do with a dog, isn’t it?

Back on the treadmill
Well, I survived my first day back at work.
I ended up leaving later than I had planned to this evening – 7.15pm (not good) … but then I did arrive at the shockingly late time of 10.25 this morning (couldn’t get out of bed), so perhaps I shouldn’t complain.
I had such a lovely break over Christmas [...]

Gloomy Thursday
I really, really don’t want to go back to work tomorrow. I could do with another fortnight off.
Where did the last two weeks go?
