SG is waiting for a man in an orange suit to come and sort her out.
SG is wondering how on earth people manage to “get everything done” - there are simply not enough hours in the day.
SG really needs a holiday.
SG is mildly annoyed by people who will not accept that their child has serious communication [...]
The massive sort out continues. I have thrown away/ freecycled/ sold/ given to charity so much stuff in the last few weeks, and it feels great! Decluttering is the way forward!
Today I’m sorting out my wardrobe. Not that I have huge amounts of clothes … but I do tend to wear the same things all the [...]
Je viens de regarder ce film, et je l’ai vraiment aimé. Mais je n’ai pas compris la fin … Véronique arrive chez son père en voiture; elle s’arrête devant un arbre, et commence à le caresser (l’arbre). Son père est à l’intérieur de la maison en train de bricoler, et au moment de l’arrivée de sa fille, il [...]
I knew that I had £5 worth of ‘free’ downloads per month included in my 3 mobile contract, but I had sort of forgotten about it. Then yesterday, revelation! I suddenly realised that I could use my £5 to download music onto my phone!

I’m with the Deaf community on this point, i.e. those people who see [...]
Check out this website if you live in London - it’s supposed to help you decide who to vote for in the forthcoming elections.

My views were apparently most similar to Ken Livingstone and Sîan Berry of the Greens, closely followed by Lindsey German of the Left List. [...]
What I like about my job
I can wear jeans to work.
The salary/ pension is reasonable.
I am largely independent.
Some of my colleagues.
I am interested in language development - at least in an academic, theoretical way.
Phonetic transcription.
What I don’t like about my job
SLTs are a homogeneous bunch: white women in their twenties and thirties, mainly.
This means there [...]
I feel a massive moan coming on. And the gist of it will be … I FUCKING WELL HATE MY JOB!
I really need to change things soon, before I go completly mad.
