    can android boys date iphone girls?

    July 22nd, 2010

    having opened up the vlog to crowdsourced content, this week’s topic has been selected by @wallrat who posed the question “can android boys date iphone girls?”.

    i know it’s a question so many of you have spent hours wide awake pondering at night. so i’ve taken an objective view and have recorded my findings for you here, my friends. please, no need to thank me.

    really hoping this “crowdsourcing” thing takes off, i hear it’s pretty hot right now ;)  help me out and suggest a topic in the comments below. the funnier the better, i don’t have dignity, it’s fine!

    apologies for the delay in getting this posted, consider myself officially told off given your tweets and emails. it won’t happen again.

    thursday hugs, M xox

    my first impressions of the iPhone 4

    June 24th, 2010

    ok, now you may be unimpressed as this is the shortest video in the history of man! however, having spent 3 hours queueing outside of the apple store with the possibility we might not get served before closing, i’m mentally and physically exhausted!

    i have to say, the staff at the apple store were outstanding – such a lovely bunch of people, not able to do enough for you. makes waiting that little bit sweeter. now with MobileMe set up and the iPhone in full use, here’s a quickie that i prepared for you from the phone. it was dark, so you might want to make some allowances!

    a proper review to follow but again, a big thanks to all of the guys at the apple store in westfields. awesome!

    now you all know how it goes… you get the newest gadget, nothing can beat it – you’re beyond excited. that is of course, until apple announces a newer version. well, yeah, this video’s about that! enjoy!

    i’m afraid that there’s no video this week. as you will have been able to tell from my incessant twitter whinging, i’ve had a couple of operations which mean that i’m pretty grumpy and quite frankly pretty awful to look at :)

    here’s a little something to make you smile though…. gotta love those bupa pants!

    hopefully videos shall resume next week. in the meanwhile, i’d love to take this opportunity to thank you all for your friendship and support. i don’t know where i’d be without you all.

    much love and hugs,

    things to make you smile

    May 27th, 2010

    we all have things that make us smile. some of us have lots of things and others are just miserable buggers that only have a few. whatever the case might be, there are normally many things that make me smile. there are also a few that don’t. i thought i’d share…

    would love to know what makes you smile… oh and if anybody wants to adopt a strawberry blonde cat, please apply below ;)

    ok call me cat woman…

    May 13th, 2010

    so today’s video is coming, but i’ve decided to change the way that i use my blog. life has been so busy of late that blogging has stopped and even the weekly videos have been a struggle. that, my friend, is going to change. so whilst i wait for this week’s video to upload, here’s a little something to make you smile.

    ok, ok, call me cat woman… a girl with 2 cats, but i’m not yet a spinster and you have to admit it was cute :p

    there are many things in life that make us tick – i could start with the iphone, the imac, the macbook pro and time machine but i wouldn’t want to be accused of being an apple fan girl ;)

    here’s a few of the other things that are guaranteed to bring a smile.

    i’m sorry

    April 15th, 2010

    top of the morning to you, well afternoon to be precise. now you may have noticed that there’s no video attached to this post. you see, i have tonsillitis. now whilst this shouldn’t affect my video it does mean that i happen to look rather poo. please see exhibit 1.

    i hope that you really appreciated that image, trust me i saw some sights when i googled that. ratemypoo.com is all that i’m saying!

    anyway, i’ve decided that for your own eyesight and happiness, it’s best to give the video a miss this week. fear not though peeps, i will be back with a vengeance next week where i will be my usual ray of sunshine. see exhibit 2.

    look forward to seeing you then, but in the meanwhile if you have any tips to feel better that would be awesome. as would funny jokes. especially if i can claim them as being my own around my friends to pretend to be funny. thanks.

    much love to you all.

    it’s a boy thing

    April 8th, 2010

    i’m the first to hold my hands up and say i don’t understand boys. i don’t, it’s as simple as that. when offered help and advice from my male friends it all started to click into place. so, i thought i’d share. you’re welcome :)

    i’m always welcome to suggestions though, so if you have anything you’d like to share, please use the comments. in return i can give tips and hints about girls and all will be well with the world. have an awesome thursday!

    love and hugs,
