the end was just the beginning
Last week, after I emotionally scarred Sprog 1 by forgetting her form for an art excursion, a school mum reassured me: "Don't worry, their brains reset at eight. She won't remember a thing." I've done a little research and the school mum was pretty close to the money - last year, a Canadian research team... Continue Reading →

I went to Medicare yesterday and got a dreadful shock. They've stopped the free money. I loved my cash refunds, they felt like I'd won a minor prize on Lotto. Now the money is deposited straight into your bank account - damn progress - which is very dull. Especially when you wait 20 minutes for... Continue Reading →

It's a whole year since I admitted to the world - via my blog - that I didn't notice the Global Financial Crisis. And I'm celebrating my ignorance with a redux of the post. Husband forwarded the original blog to all his business journalist mates and their faces went all Munch's The Scream-looking as they... Continue Reading →
In my early 20s, About Last Night was my favourite movie EVER. Better than Can't Stop The Music and The Breakfast Club combined. I still love it, although even after watching it 500 million times. And I still can't work out what Demi Moore says she's put in the dressing for Rob Lowe's salad on... Continue Reading →
Did John dump Katy Perry via email? Yep, that's what US Weekly and Hollywood Life are reporting. And who'd put it past the guy who called Jessica Simpson sexual napalm?
