Earlier this month, Tesco unveiled their latest lunch extravaganza. Dubbed ‘Lasandwich’, this outstanding creation was inspired by the creator, Laura Fagan’s student days. It is, wait for it, a slab of Lasagne nestling inbetween two slices of white bread. And it’s not ciabatta – the bread they are using is the lowest common denominator bread you can find. And the lasagne is not Mama’s finest either. From all reports, the sandwich shocks the tastebuds into oblivion.

How much do you “know” about the differences in brain chemistry and function between females and males? Studies are reported in the media every week claiming men use their brains one way and women another. We intuitively think that seems likely, and we accept the findings because they’re scientific. So, based on what we know about the differences, we look at children and think “well, obviously she loves pink because she’s a girl and that study said that women are drawn to bright colours”, or ...

Men, if any of you are reading this I’d suggest you stop right now as I will be talking about woman’s monthlies and blood, blood, vaginas and blood, or as it more correct, vaginal blood! Scared you away yet?Now ladies, we all have them once a month and they are a down right pain in the arse...or the vagina if we are to be factually correct. I hate mine... it hurts, I get cramps like bitch, I get irritable and moody and sometimes I don’t get irritable and moody but I have an excuse to b...

We all know the situation – someone ends up single and finds themselves swamping with offerings of hugs and sympathy, and perhaps a healthy dose of pity about the fact that they have to endure the trails and tribulations of day to day life all by their lonesome. This is brilliant when you are going through a break-up, and all you want is a shoulder to cry on and someone to feed you biscuits and pass numerous cups of tea in your direction. However, if you are past that stage, then you k...

If you’d have tuned in on Friday to Channel 4’s documentary “Girls on the Pull” expecting to see a group of girls out on the town being subjected to cheesy chat up lines by a bunch of lads you’d have been sorely disappointed. Instead you would have been greeted by three women talking very bravely a...

It may come as a shock to those of you who know me as writer, designer and pop culturalist extraordinaire to discover that I am actually a mother of one year old twin girls in my spare time. I know, and with such a lithe nubile physique, I don't know how I do it myself. Eva and Mia, my precious bundles of double trouble are perfect, hilarious, messy, and all mine up until the day they decide they didnt ask to be born, life is unfair and they up sticks to find themselves in some far flung corn...

So you don’t dress up for Halloween or birthdays or any other occasion at the drop of a hat - why the hell not? Do you not like to have fun or are you just a bit boring? If you’re a librarian or a maths teacher or a member of the grey army I’d understand, but if you’re reading this you’re probably not any of those. One day we’ll all get old and dressing up in fancy dress would render you senile and get you put on the fast track to an old peoples home so you might as well make the most of it ...

Why did we spend all those years desperate to grow up only to now wish ourselves back to the way things were? When you're thirteen-years-old there is nothing worse than having your life ruled by your parents. You think that it would be fantastic to be twenty-three and living in your own place where your friends could come round whenever you fancied, or to be thirty-three and have a fantastic job earning so much money that you could buy whatever you wanted.
