Prepare to hear a LOT about Queen Elizabeth II over the next few weeks. The elderly monarch is set to become unavoidable in the run up to the Diamond Jubilee bank holiday on 5 June.It is likely to get annoying, even if you are a die-hard monarchist. It may even provoke tirades of bad language upon the sight of YET ANOTHER set of retro-kitsch Uni...

You may have heard about the fantastically useful School of Life - maybe from my BitchBuzz review of one of their classes - and have perhaps wondered why there wasn't something similar in a city near you. Well, never fear, The School of Life is now going on to...

77% of women feel sexier with cared for underarms. Wow.Imagine being part of the focus group that led to this astonishing statistic. What kind of crazy-assed questions did these poor confused souls get asked? Did they get shown pictures of armpits and have to rate them in terms of sexiness? Oh, to have been a fly on the wall...

Some people say that absence makes the heart grow fonder. Others say "out of sight, out of mind." It's always possible to find an idiom to suit your needs, so many are rather contradictory. This is largely irrelevant though because all of them can be true at some point, depending on the circumstances.

You meet someone amazing, you go on a few dates, you fall head over heels in love. You're so happy that you just can't stop talking about it. It's a story that I'm sure many of you will recognise, but how do we stop it before we get too bad?When a friend meets some one new and won't shut up about them, it can be so bloody irritating. At the beginning, it's nice that they're happy and you love to share in their joy but, after a while, you start to wish...

I find it hard to believe that, in a society where women can choose to have have jobs and choose to get married, some people still think that it's only right and proper for a man to propose marriage. Women are supposed to do the swooning and saying yes, not the asking. Apparently. Except today, of course, this one's meant for us girls.

Oh, periods. That wonderful time where your body reminds you that it is probably physically capable of making a baby, given the right ingredients. For some women it's an entire week of pain, for others it's simply a few days of mess. However, there is one subject that is guaranteed to raise an eyebrow or two at this time of the month, and that's sex.

In the weeks surrounding Valentine's Day each year, much is written on the subject of love. That wonderful emotion which poets, artists and songwriters have been obsessed with for centuries. As Ewan McGregor helpfully summarised in Moulin Rouge's Elephant Love Medley, "Love is a many splendored thing! Love lifts us up where we belong! All you need is love!"

When you're a teenager, losing your virginity is often quite a big thing on your agenda. I remember wondering how I'd find a boyfriend, whether it was easy to kiss like they did in the movies and, later on, what on earth I was going to do when it came round to sex. There was always plenty of advice around, but it never seemed to be the right stuff.

If I asked you "do you tell your partner everything?", what would your answer be? If your reply would be "no, not everything" and you sometimes wonder why your significant other isn't a mind reader, perhaps you should stop and think about that for a while. How can they truly know you if you keep secrets?
