London really IS an interesting place...
Okay so I hardly ever venture out to Oxford Street cos it’s so busy, so many tourists, conjested bla bla bla but I was there today, hanging around Selfridges as usual if I am in that area…here’s just a few things that happened:
* Made a new friend with ‘Rodger’ from Manchester who is apparently going to add me on Facebook.
* Took part in a promotional video.

Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy
There has been much build up to the highly anticipated Noel Fielding’s Luxury Comedy showing on E4 Thursday 26th January 2012.
The programme is a combination of surreal live sketches and animation, with Noel’s recognisable face set amid a crazy setting that seems to use every colour in the spectrum. As a fan of the legendary (in my eyes) Mighty Boosh, I am hoping that this will bring...

Tinderbox "Good for Lunch"
Whoa hello Tinderbox in Spitalfields. A chic interior design and clever utilisation of space reminds me of a cool canteen, which makes sense as it is situated next to the modern and stylish Nido Student Tower.
I had a tuna melt which had a little too much mayonnaise, but the rosemary bread was a nice alternative to the cheaper stuff found in most coffee shops. The atmosphere was relaxed and...
Jason Patterson

Saatchi Gallery
Now I would describe myself as a creative, someone who is actively interested in design. I regularly go to museums and exhibitions, I enjoy reading about new talented artists, film directors, designers, and I go to University of the Arts London for cripes sake! I am open minded and appreciative of all forms of design whether it be in interior furniture, random objects, or a well presented cake!

Blogger - Jenna Marbles
Up verryyy late last night, and although I’m regretting it now, I did discover a funny blogger while on the YouTube in the early hours of the morn. Classed as a comedian, she is random, warm, a generally nice girl, not over the top/annoying (as so many internet bloggers are now days) and genuinely keeps my interest for the duration of her videos and puts a smile on my face! She is great!

She meets 6 mothers, all of whom have different views about parenting but share the common idea that they know best.
