what a cola crap !




Ironically , i just popped out for a wee can (never a bottle!) of DC and someone just tried to sample me with a rival cola with all the vitamins i would need for the day !! Seriously - all the vitamins ! In one caramel flavoured e-numbered beverage ! They say miracles don't happen ! I say rubbish and balls !


(NB - if someone wants to invented a diet coke that will come round my house and tidy my room and do my washing after im done with it then i vote OUI!)

No more !


One of my favourite people leaves me at work today . Yes , the Sophie More is err no more and im very sad .

She has given me years of endless amusement and good work time banter .
We have been planning for a long time to do a TV series Called "Mack and More - Girls on tour" whereby we would take a Thelma and Louise style jaunt through the best scottish distilleries in a lovely convertable car. Thankfully she is buggering off to work for a very well know 'sour mash whiskey' company so mack and more can go global . Freaking sweet ! You heard it hear first , im sure we will soon become the new hot power duo of TV! Shove it back to newcastle Ant and Dec, retire Fern and Phil, get back to radio Holly and Fern !

Today its all about the More, going to make her get on the booze train and get her wreckatronnic at her leaving bash !

big bunch o ?


I spend so much time careering around in circles with lots of bike geeks. Im wondering what the correct terminology for a collection of them is ... .. Hmm .. A gaggle of geeks anyone ?

give me a break ..

shove all that amazingness the trip gave me - im paying for it now in utter wide awakeness . Ive been awake all night and now its 7 am and i have to get up and get myself out to the airport and off to cornwall . Gutted . 

Since i gave up trying to sleep two hours a ago i have found out 

1. about 1 billion bike seats i wanna buy 
2. the fact that my (as i thought) amusingly titled blog has a name share with a incredibly polictically educated cat - www.katablog.com. He knows way more than me .
3. David shrigley still rocks.. 

summer calling ..

ah dear .. i just worked a 14 hourer; screw longer nights and sunny days,  that fact is officially the sign of the start of the summer and the event season. Hmm. Ill be honest - this year im not convinced !

Co co co coachella .


I just returned from a 11 day jaunt to coachella and cali . To say it was wonderful would not do it justice . Totally amazing. Me and heezer who i went with are utterly compatible road trip buddies . I love a good road trip . Only downer were that both of our ipods broke just before we left . i had the bright idea to get a 4 cd 80s rock classics albumn . it turned out to be a kareoke one made from a casio keyboard . Whoever wasnt driving got to sing.





heather won a giant stewie at universal studios .
 It was a highlight of our lives!


 

As if i wasnt going to get some bike time !




Other key highlights were

Strolling/swanning around ridiculous pool parties
Parking in artists parking beside chloe sevigny  (i know, i know celeb geek!) 
sipping silly cocktails by the rossevelt pool
the worlds' BEST cheesburger in the worlds BEST diner ! Straight out of grease!
Bikey shops in LA
Seeing russell brands hair . HUGE . like a giant nest.
Gigantic lie ins

From the top !

Ive just switched over from another blog site ( as me layout was annoying me!) and going to take me a while to get this all sorted .


I want to get the archive sorted as its been going for a while and i have some good on there . Basically this is just a place where i post about general shanigans going on in my life and the ways of London . I do it 50% for my own joy and amusement and 50 % for the fact that at the grand old age of 28 i have to write things down all the time . Long may this serve as a visual memory of whats ive been up to otherwise ill totally forget .


In the meantime whilst im waiting to figure out via google how to transfer you can have a selection of pictures of things that i have loved over last year or so ..



Below tis I - i love this photo as it doesn really look like me . my friend nate took it . i call him the worlds' best photographer . He is a good pal and shoots tons for work for us . he never minds that we put "must take pictures of us girls looking hot" in his photography brief .

And yes, in answer to your question - i guess i am slightly vain . but i challenge you to find me someone who doesnt like to look well , nice !


.. this is a more accurate desciption of what i look like (albeit standard myspaz pose and flash!)

I lovethis picture as it was from my birthday in 05 or 06 (See, I AM useless!) In Iceland . We were in middle of nowhere with poulos with work and the thing we came to work on broke in first 10 minutes and we were 4 hours from anywhere ! gutted ! It was also so windy i couldnt get out of van incase i blew away .





Next up is my bike. Its amazing and called Joe Lightening . He is my best friend . We go everwhere together . ive become bike obsessed in the last year . Seriously love it ! gets you fit, makes london smaller, met some great new people, is something that allows me to spend hours on web getting sorted ! Seriously . What not to love ! It bought london some more time did Joe . If youve read old posts you would be more than be up to speed on my love / hate relationship with this amazing/annoying as hell city !







Pals pals pals . Thats what life is made for (that and family guy watching) im lucky to have a good bunch here and all over . and they are all pretty funny too . good times ! here are some of our heads !




right after this photo the wee doggie ravaged gendles' jeans leg ! (in the nice dog way not the rottweiler way)


Work . Its a major one but after 5 years im really trying to not do it 12 hours a day anymore . Semi retirement in old age ! My work is fun - kind of like a high school . This pic summarises it . This was from a christmas party where i attempted to be the apex of a human pyramid . We failed - utterly not my fault of course , there was a creaky lynchpin on the bottom row. you can just see my little legs there . I fell hard - akin to a ton o bricks



This other picture was taken from a trip to a snowboarding film contest . We got a head from nate friend that was used in a horror film . That thing gave me el creeps for weeks !



Another massive thing of mine is snowboarding . Growing up in ze mountains and then living in the best place in the world - portes du soleil for a season was the best thing ever . Was 21 , saved for 3 years to do it and do jack all work - got there and had a ball . met on on my bestest friends on that trip - She still lives there with her man and their zoo . I miss them!
