It wouldn’t be a normal day without a fresh dose of outrage from the Daily Mail, right?I’m a particular fan of those times when the outrage misses the point and gets things completely wrong – personally I’ll never forget the legendary day in 2006 when the Mail

Cate just wrote a post about what to do on blue Monday, the scientifically proved most depressing day of the year. However what are we supposed to do about the rest of January? This month isn't just made depressing by the weather, it's also a huge screaming post-Christmas and new years anticlimax.

Today is meant to be the most depressing day of the year. Blue Monday they call it. And yet I wonder if the only reason people start to feel depressed on Blue Monday is after some somber news reporter tells them it’s Blue Monday. I’m sure we all felt fine until reading or hearing about the “dark and miserable weather” or “post-Christmas back to work boredom”.

I must warn you right now, I have been watching a lot of apocalypse films at the moment. Films where zombies take over the world. Films about vampire revolutions. Films where the world ends through natural climate changes. Films where alien life threatens our existence. Great films, granted, but they have had an embarrassing and unfortunately side effect – they have turned me into an unwitting survivalist.

It is winter. No doubt about it. Snow, scarves and sniffles are the name of the game.To me feeling cold and having a cold are two of my least favourite things about winter. Don’t get me wrong, I love the cold when I’m wrapped up, stomping around the countryside with the promise of a pub and a roaring fire at the end; just not when I’m waiting for the bus or when I’ve got to go to a really important meeting and have to navigate the journey in my best suit and deal with hat hair at the e...

Despite women already having to worry about wrinkles, gray hair, shrinking and saggy boobs,, irregular bowl movements that can be cured by yogurt, cellulite, their weight and muscle tone – there’s now something else we need to worry about. Don’t panic, it has nothing to do with your health, but everything to do with the cosmetic appearance of your labia.

A viral campaign dreamed up to ‘raise awareness of breast cancer’ has been the subject of major controversy on the web for the last few days.Like many of you I’m sure, I logged on to Facebook last week to find the following message in my Inbox.“Some fun is going on! Put the colour of your bra in your status and nothing else. Send this message to your female friends only. It will be neat to see whether this spreads the wings of cancer awareness and fun to see how long...

I don’t know about you, but I am totally utterly fed up with the snow. I am probably bitter because of the fact I didn’t get to have a snow day (and because I live in a godforsaken bubble that never gets proper snow), but it is also quite likely that the dampness and ever-increasing slush levels have finally reached my brain. When this happens… well, I can’t be held responsible for my actions, my whining and my downright tetchiness!

Whenever movie stars or celebrities get involved with the Internet, I can’t help but roll my eyes. Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore’s foreplay on Twitter is enough to make me throw up and Kim Kardashian’s blog – albeit highly entertaining – is also high on the “Will It Make You Vom?” scale. Because celebrity’s online are so nauseating, I was pretty skeptical when in I read in

It’s the beginning of 2010 and we’re all simultaneously feeling as it the last year has flown by, and like last New Year was such a long time ago. And on January 1st we all woke up with the very best of intentions and an iron will. For many of us, of course, such stern determination usually turns into gluttony and laziness before the day is out, meaning that all our fancy resolutions go frankly unheard and unfulfilled.
