Well hello again everyone , I’m back from my Easter break with my mum, we had a great time, even though not one drop of alcohol passed our lips.The choccy eggs made up for that, I’m sure some of them had booze in as come Monday I felt I had a rotten hangover.

We decided to take my mum out for the day on Saturday, to Eastbourne, she’d never been before so we just got in the car and drove, she had a bad bout of motion sickness on the way, I don’t think it helped with the dodgy overpowering perfume she sprayed all over herself ,even I felt sick and I travel well. She was OK when we got there though ,the fresh sea air cleared her lungs and the cobwebs which in turn made her hungry so we ended up getting fish n chips. We then took a pleasant walk into the town which I have to admit ,is no different from any other seaside town, the usual tacky seaside shops selling rocks ,candy floss and the sorts, it did make a change though. I don’t think any of us will rush back mind.

It took us just over five hours to return today, my head is pounding,but it’s soooo nice to be back home, I love my mum dearly and love to spend time with her but it’s always good to get home to your home comforts, especially my bed, she bought one of them foam mattresses for the bed, you know the sort, astronauts supposedly use them, it’s like sleeping on a brick I can tell you, the only advantage I found was it stopped the other half snoring, mind you that might of been because of the lack of sleep rather than sorting his sinuses out. All in all though we did have a great time with surprisingly no tiffs or barnies (which usually happens after more than 2 days).

So with that my lovely readers It’s back to reality and I will speak to you tomorrow xx

Whilst looking for something interesting to watch by way of illusions The Guinness World Record of Quick Change Artist 2008 came up…

I think you’ll agree its quite an achievement especially as women generally take hours just to put one dress on, let alone 15 in 2 minutes, well deserving to be in the book I’d say

So heather Mills finally got what she wanted, a whopping 25 million pounds in her divorce settlement after being married to Sir Paul Mcartney for just four years. Even then she still was’nt content with such a huge amount and appealled saying she needed more to support her daughter,which I’m glad the courts turned down, the amount of money she recieved would set up several people for life, let alone a single mum and a  four year old.

As well as wanting more money for supporting her child she still wanted 40 grand a year for wine, which she does’nt drink no more and 35 grand for horses that she doesnt even ride, I can only dream of possesing such money, thats in my life time and several more after, not bloody four years. I cant help think, as I’m sure others do, that she is just a gold digger. I know Sir Paul has millions but in honesty what gives her the right. From the beginning of their relationship I thought it was dodgy that such a young woman would want to be with a much older man unless it was for financial purposes.

So beware all you old croonies with loadsa wads, you may pick a pretty pal, but is she after your wallet or you, the chances are it will be the latter.

Emotionally and weathered detective Eddie breaks in his new partner Helen (Melissa George, some of you may remember from the Aussie soap Home & Away playing Angel) on a grisly series of murders where the victims come in twos, one is savagely electrocuted with the word Waz carved into their flesh and the other,usually a loved one, horrendously tortured to death. Investigation into the mysterious signature reveals it to be the formula that there is no altruism or genuine selflessness in nature, and unearths the gruesome motivation of the slayings, someone is putting people to the ultimate test of love, wherein they must endure stark physical torture that can only be ended by pulling a switch to electrocute the one closest to their hearts. Unbeknown to Helen, the detective knows the killer and has at some point dealt with them, that is why he is involved and he’s paying for his past mistakes.

Not a bad movie, a clever film but it was a bit slow at times. I was anticipating that it was going to have me on the edge of my seat like Seven did(as thats what they claimed it was like) but was slightly disappointed. A very dark and gritty film which is not for the faint hearted as some of the torture scenes make you wince and are very brutal, so steer clear if your not up for the brutality of it. There was a lot of dark scenes in the movie but all in all is worth watching.

After 10 weeks of Dancing On Ice last night was the final. I have to say the show was outstanding, the only downfall really was that they dragged the show out to make it stretch the 2 hours worth of viewing, with two skatings by Christopher Dean & Jayne Torville, good as they were, the skaters that were previously knocked out through the show and just the hosts having a general chit chat. I just wanted to see the skaters do their stuff. When I did I wasn’t disappointed. There was some superb skating from the 3 remaining finalists, Suzanne, Chris and Zaraah.

Zaraah who respectfully came in 3rd, collected several sixes for her beautiful floaty flying performance as well as her favorite from the series, personally I thought both performances were better than Chris’s. His performance in the air was a bit awkward with his transitions being either out of sync or a tad clumsy,despite this he was able to have a stab at choreographing his own rendition of Christopher & Jane’s Bolero, which was good but didn’t win the crown, so he came in 2nd.

Rightfully deserving to be crowned champion though was Suzanne Shaw, her performance throughout the evening was just amazing, sweeping the scoreboard on both her flying performance, which was out of this world, and her chosen favorite. But It was her version of the Bolero that clinched it for her, doing some daring moves, a twisting head banging thing, which Robin Cousin’s said " I have only seen one other couple doing that move,and they have been skating together for ten years". All the judges at one point had tears in their eyes as well as Suzanne’s son who was watching her perform, in fact I may have had a little moistening of the tear ducts myself, only because the cameras panned to her son who was balling his eyes out …honest.

So there you have it some great performances from this years show, I hope next years will be just as interesting as this, I’ll be looking forward to it.

Congratulations Suzanne Shaw Dancing On Ice Champion 2008.

Quarterback Joe Kingman(Dwayne’The Rock’Johnson) is known as one of the toughest players in american football. he’s cool, rich, famous and the life and soul of every party. But his life is about to change when he discovers Peyton, the 8-year-old daughter he never knew existed, on his doorstep. Just as his career is soaring, Joe must learn to juggle his old lifestyle of parties, practices and dates with supermodels while tackling the new challenges of ballet, bedtime stories and baby dolls. Equally perplexed is his hardedged agent, Stella, who is also without a parental bone in her body. As the championship grows nearer, Joe is about to realize that the game that truly matters has nothing to do with money, endorsements or even touchdowns, it’s all about the really tough stuff, parenthood, having patience, teamwork, selflessness and trying to win the heart of the one little fan who turns out to count the most, his daughter.

A great light hearted family film that sees The Rock in a totally different light, his acting in this film is great and believable, little Maddison Pettis is a cute little actress and is talented for such a young age, it’s a film that will leave you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside, definitely worth watching.

The young schoolgirl Shannon Matthews who went missing 24 days ago was found safe and unharmed yesterday.

The 9 year old who went missing from her hometown in West yorkshire was found in the base of a Divan bed at a 39 year old mans flat in Dewsbury, a mile from her home. She is said to have been found when police went to do a routine search on a house, the owner refused to let them gain access so they had to break the door down, where upon they found the young girl concealed in the bed base, As of yet there looks to be no harm come to the young girl and she appeared quite calm, the mother, earlier in the week made a statement that she thought it may have been someone she knows, who was trying to hurt her.

Thankfully this young girl has been found safe and well, lets hope the same goes for little Madeleine Mcgann

Being a 38 year old  I think I’m pretty "with it" as far as music goes and enjoy most types of modern songs, but today on my way home I was irritated by a couple of youngsters  that got on the metro.

I was sitting there peacefully looking out of the window when a young lad and lass got on, they must’ve only been about 16. The lad was your typical Chav wearing trackie bottoms and matching top but in a different colour, with more bling than a jewelery shop. The lass weren’t much better, In fact I weren’t even sure if she was a female as she looked so much like a boy, the only thing that give her away was the bumps in her top, unless they were man boobs (she was on the plump side). Anyway as I was saying, I was sitting there daydreaming about being on a nice hot tropical beach somewhere when these two sat in front and beside me, I continued to observe the passing scenery outside, when they both pulled out their mobile phones and hit the music button.

Omg how anyone can call speeded up music that makes them sound like a load of chipmunks is beyond me. The lass was playing a Chav rendition of country roads at least I think it was, I got the country roads bit anyhow, what made it worse was the lad was playing a completely different song but of the same style and louder which made it sound even worse. They were both swearing and cussing for no particular reason except to make them get noticed, if playing that crap music wasn’t enough. So poor little me was sandwiched  in by these two annoying Chavs for most of my journey home. I was getting more irritated by the minute and couldn’t wait til they both got off. When they did disembark I was so relieved and the usual sound of  the wheels clambering over the tracks seemed so calming in comparison, you could just about hear the conversations among the other passengers.

Some old girl was tutting and complaining about the "racket" she’d just heard, while a young girl behind me was obviously chatting to her lover or boyfriend on the phone because she was whispering as quiet as she could, but you could just make out she was talking dirty to whoever was on the other end of the line, I remember those days well. I couldn’t help but smile to myself, then my stop came and I had to walk into the gusty winds and rain to reach my destination …home.
