Why are people incapable of replying to emails!!! I have sent out many emails over the last few weeks and about four people have managed to get back to me. Those have included the nice lady who will be making me a custom version of the corset I linked to in this post. It will be gorgeous and lovely and awesome, and she is selling me some extra ( Read more... )

Why do I read fashion magazines backwards? I don't mean I sit there and read the articles backwards, but I tend to start (especially with the Sunday Times Style) right at the back.

I slept last night (I lay there at 2am and pretended I was melting into the bed. It's a trick that was suggested to relax my muscles from ballet by my ballet teacher, and it sometimes works.

Sorry about that. On the plus side, you can scroll straight past if you're not interested, so at least I'm not pinning you down and making you listen to my witterings ( Read more... )

I'm totally spamming now, but I've spent most of the day huddled on the sofa, and that means abusing the internet. Anyway. I was hoping far more informed people than me could help me out.

I've had this picture bookmarked for an age. I love it, and think it's a nice piece of art, and as most people know I am a fan of anything to do with comic books ( Read more... )

It's family entertainment right? I remember watching it as a kid, and enjoying it ( Read more... )
