Indian Spring Has Sprung

By Guest at March 29, 2010 | 11:20 am | 0 Comment

Hi, my name’s Angharad and I’m addicted to...all things Indian. Not just the food (although I’ve just learned to make kick-ass tandoori salmon); I am also obsessed with Indian clothes, jewellery, ornaments and artwork. My bedroom looks a little like it aspires to be a scene from the Ramayana, with Indian prints on the walls and a Rajasthani rug which I think of

This Little Lady Has Found The Perfect Shoe!

By Guest at March 28, 2010 | 11:14 am | 4 Comments

I love shoes. I know that almost every girl says that but, I really seriously love shoes.   I have a walk in wardrobe full of pretty peep toes, sexy sling backs, amazing animal print, suede, leather, flip flops....  the list goes on and on and on and on I also have a problem with shoes. Well actually, it is not so much a problem with the shoes – it is more

This little lady went to cupcake heaven, by Lorns

By Guest at March 27, 2010 | 1:01 am | 1 Comments

This little lady went cupcake mad... I never win anything. Tell a lie, I did once win a talent show at Butlins when I was 7. I sang a rather inappropriate version of ‘where the boys are’ on the main stage and cried with joy when I was announced the winner. I was invited back for finals week to take part in the competition with all the other winners from the summer

Everyone’s doing it….are you?

By Guest at March 24, 2010 | 5:20 pm | 1 Comments

Blogging is officially cool. Everyone’s doing it – from famous bloggers like Belle de Jour and quirky fashion types to little unknowns who want to have a say in the world. I suppose I would say this because I’m a blogger myself  - I write a dating blog at  http://thelovesandlifeofalondongirl.blogspot.com and can be found on twitter @LovesofaLDNgirl  - tweeting

Changes…

By JJ at March 23, 2010 | 1:24 pm | 4 Comments

If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies. (Author Unknown) The last few weeks have been ripe with change. The boy and I are making that difficult transition from being two single people, to one co-habiting couple. The quietness of the suburbs is a distant memory and reintroduction into life in London has been swift thanks to one flashing incident (not

DIU Launch

By JJ at March 19, 2010 | 12:54 pm | 0 Comment

Last night, the Boy and I had the pleasure of checking out brand new Greek Street venue, DIU. DIU is the latest boutique nightclub to hit the Central London scene and it's got all the signs of being a huge success. The interior is impossibly glamorous; a warren of small, interconnected rooms that you enter through hidden mirrored doors and benched corridors. The decor is

“I loathe the bus. There has to be a more dignified form of transport.”

By Leanne at March 19, 2010 | 11:40 am | 7 Comments

[caption id="attachment_4842" align="alignleft" width="150" caption="It might look rather retro..."][/caption] I love how iconic it is, but as a mode of transport I hate the bus. Seriously, I LOATHE travelling on the bus. I hate the fact I fall over or even off my chair when we go round corners. I hate the fact that I have to cling on to the clammy pole to stop myself

Well hello there, Mr Sunshine!

By Leanne at March 18, 2010 | 2:04 pm | 0 Comment

Wowza, I did not expect that when I opened the front door this morning. I was in a bit of a rubbish mood when I first woke up. I don't like getting up early, I don't like having to wade through boxes after you have moved house and I don't like feeling unprepared for an audition. Today presented me with all three of these things. I clumsily searched through lots of boxes,

Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig oraibh!

By Leanne at March 17, 2010 | 10:45 am | 1 Comments

I'm told that the above title is a St Patrick's Day blessing in Irish, or at least that's what I stumbled across on Google so I apologise if I got it wrong! Basically, I wanted to wish all the Irish followers a fabulous day.  I love the way that every British city I have been in on this day celebrates with the Irish and I often get holiday envy when St George's Day comes

Follow the Butterflies…

By Leanne at March 15, 2010 | 10:59 am | 1 Comments

Anyone who knows me will know that 'Follow the Butterflies' has been my mantra for quite some time.I believe that if anything gives you that fluttery feeling in your belly, goosebumps or just a little excitement it is worth following up. So when my good friend told me there was an entire restaurant dedicated to the butterfly, I simply had to check it out. Itsu

Gone fishing….

By JJ at March 13, 2010 | 9:24 am | 0 Comment

Of course I haven't really gone fishing. Far too cold for that malarkey... But I may not be around much this week. I have moving stuff to do (read "supervise"), pain levels are through the roof already (BOO) and I need a rest. In other words, blogging may be a little tough for a few days. Don't fear though, I still have a few special things lined up for you. Keep your
