Bu now, you’ll know that I like to do my bit to help the public… this often means dispelling untruths. It’s my duty in life.

Today’s a little random, so I thought I’d take a look at nursery rhymes…

Emails never to send on a dating site

admin — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 13:24:17 +0000

So, after last week’s video… it appears that more and more of you are venturing into the land of online dating and I’ve had lots of emails asking for advice. I should point out that whilst I used to work for a dating company, I’m completely clueless and thus single.

However, experience alone tells me that there are certain things you should never send in a first email. Before you press send, you might want to check out these things to avoid:

Twitter Offenders: which type are you?

admin — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 14:59:01 +0000

We’ve all experienced it… the person who takes up 3 tweets to send one message, the person who finds themselves hilarious… hopefully I’m not the only one who knows people like this?!?

I know that you’ll be stuck with that song in your head for the rest of the day. You’re welcome. Truly.

Happy Thursday. Much love, M xox

All shoppers have a style… you know the types, the leisurely browsers, the ones on a mission and those that are, just, well… clueless!

In this week’s video I explore the different types of shopper and ask the question… which type of shopper are you?

random thursday video 1 year anniversary, hip hip hooray!

Mel — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 17:26:29 +0000

it’s with much pleasure and squealing delight that i make it to my first year’s anniversary of the randommel weekly thursday videos and i’ve had a blast!

i’m often asked how it all came about and the truth is by accident, and boy what a great accident (if only they could all be that good, given how accident prone i am). so this time last year, i was in charge of organising the future of web apps miami event whist working at carsonified.

i wanted to do a little promo for the event to show how excited i was, but didn’t want to speak (you know what it’s like to hear your own voice!). feedback was great and what girl doesn’t like a little boost to her ego?

the next week was valentines and it seemed there was a lot going on, so i did another. before you know it i’d done a couple and when i forgot to do them or thought that i’d done enough, i’d get emails asking for more and so they continued.

i’ve had amazing support from you all over the past year, dedicated regular viewers and even some videos in my honour. i often pinch myself as it all seems too good to be true, butÂ it’s then i remember what industry we’re in… the best one in the world!

so, thank you! as long as they’re welcome, they’ll continue!

here’s what i’ve learned about dating sites…

Mel — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 14:30:35 +0000

as you’ll know (because i’ve harped on about it so damn much!), i’m now in windsor, settled and happy, thanks to you all for your well wishes. as research for the new role, i took it upon myself to undertake in-depth research and i thought it only fair to share my findings with you…

if you take away one thing and one thing only from this video, let it be “manscaping”… no need to say anything more!

happy thursday
