I was glad to see this, because I was reminded by this article of how the art world has be cruel to great successes like Jack Vettriano simply because he’s self-taught. It seems to, among other things, undermine […]

All the Lego ladies are pretty awesome :)

Lego Hermione, I think. She’s pretty darn cool.

I’m not sure if he’s a respected artist, but I can’t stand Damien Rice. An artist I’ve grown to love? Hmn. Emeli Sande comes to mind.

Ruby is – to me, at least – one of those rare songs that despite being played endlessly on the radio, is still a great listen.

Aw, I needed good news! This is awesome collection of articles, thanks Bryn!

Wow! That is an incredibly intense experience by the sounds of things! Any many sympathies with your doctor experiences. Contraceptive choices and the thought involved are not helped by doctors who’re unwilling to listen.

This is where I’m aware that for me contraception is purely about family planning as opposed general health. That seems so difficult what you’ve been through. I can relate to the hormones and ickiness – my two […]

Oh goodness, I hope you can find something that works for you. It’s can be horrible trying to navigate contraception and all it entails.

Well if ever there was a warning to be heeded … my goodness, I had no idea cats could have such staunch views on contraception.

Hmn, I think I”m a creature of habit.

“In this respect, any hard-working and contributing member of society is at their 9-5 and therefore will not be at home to watch these shows”

Neither of these atributes are dependent on location, employent […]

I shared my Harry Potter story, as it were, a little while ago: http://persephonemagazine.com/2011/12/20/the-end-of-an-era/

Violence is an incredibly broad term, so trying to determine a threshold isn’t something I find easy. I guess I know the point something has gone too far when I see it, and there may also be different reasons […]

Ack, I wanted to love “White Teeth”, was in reach of the end, but couldn’t read any more. With a similarish vibe are Roopa Farooki’s books which are nothing short of wonderful. At the moment I’m reading “21st […]
