Rich widow duo

nobody@vox.com(Lucy) — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 10:44:17 +0000

Yesterday in Selfridges I saw a pair of rich widows coming from the champagne bar.

Both incredibly old, they held onto one another. Weighed down by their massive fur coats and big hair, it was hard to tell if one was supporting the other, as they both seemed to depend on the other to walk.

They didn't seem like they had direction, but their inner ruby and emerald-powered radar would probably guide them to the right place wherever they needed to be, champagne bar, diamond shop, big hair salon, Chanel concession, etc.

Old pair

Sorry for me crap Paint skillz.

Ah Rotherham

nobody@vox.com(Lucy) — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 18:23:55 +0000

I love the internet, but I also love people who comment on the internet.

Remember our elderly friends who commented on that food delivery site? MR GUILE WANTED MORE DUMPLINGS?

Well I have found something funnier, but much scarier.

I was looking for a phone number for a local takeaway when I found this site. People of Rotherham post comments on a variety of topics to do with the town. Here are some of my favourites. Apologies for the dodgy copy-and-paste formatting.

Cheap food:

netto lol
Salt And Vinegar chip shop across from that shop that sells bongs and near cash convertor. POPEYES!!
The best restaurant in Rotherham has got to be 'E LUPOS' Italian, run by VITO and SALLY, the most tastyest food ever! Live music every Friday with fabulous BARRY, Great atmosphere!
Popeyes, but only when you're pissed 'cos the pizzas taste of hairspray

Favourite Building in Rotherham:

All shite

Buskers, Street Entertainment:

idiots

The old man busking on Tesco's bridge....he lives in a house bigger than mine and drives a decent car. Don't tip him, he's a spy working for M15.
My god that lil guy who hangs round meadowhall staring at v.young girls blowin raspberries you all know him ,seriously tip 2 the security there this guy needs banning!!
The only busker i know is the one in Tesco bridge who asks you for drugs then wants a fag then 20 pence. just run away nad somebody else will steal his money once his drugged up, throw him off the bridge!

Hookup spots:

Bottom of steps nr church
no what im saying
No decent women in rotherham to hook up with, lived in rotherham all my life, i was a misanthrope by the age of 10
We used to meet up at the third bench on the hill of Clifton Park. My, I've many happy memories of that bench and all the wildlife that used to congrigate around our feet.

Well I'm out of hospital, and oh God, where do I begin? I'll do a bigger entry about it all - warning, it will be mostly moany and depressing - and it will contain such highlights as:

The Terrible Food!

The Highly Inappropriate Psychiatrist!

Nurses Who Couldn't Tell I Am A Girl!

My Shit Phone Signal 11 Floors Up!

But first, last night I had my first proper dreams since before I went into hospital. They've left me confused.

Dream One: Attending a lecture by Charlie Brooker in a shopping centre, where I decide I must get off with him, and most of the dream is spent trying to get closer to him. I fail.

Dream Two: PeterJ gets his 2nd NaNoWriMo published, and it's a story about racists. He is in all the papers and Sky News because they think he is a racist too, just because he wrote about them. Us bloggers, and weirdly, Martin Clunes and Stephen Fry (???) rally round Pete to support him and reassure him that we know he is not a racist and he musn't give up on his writing.

Whatdya make of THAT?

I should probably blog about this before I forget...

In my last entry, I mentioned how I was going to a charity day at some stock broker place. Well thick old me didn't realise that it was the stock broker place, as in where the whole thing in the news about money, banks and er, stocks has er, been. BGC anyway, it's been featured in the news a lot lately.

As you saw from my Facebook photies, I met quite a lot of famous people, which was nice. People also there who I didn't get to photograph: Prince Charles and Cherie Blair. Madness.

Everyone was just nice, and it was a lovely day. Everyone was supporting a cause and having a good time. Nobody was stuck-up, and it was just a cheery, exciting day. The only real celeb gossip I got was that Claire From The Apprentice now runs her own business. You mighta known that anyway.

I got a free goody bag from the day too, which wasn't filled with stock broker cash, sadly, but kiddy stuff. I have a puppy from Hotel Chocolat, a High School Musical CD - does anyone want this? - and a little pony I have since adopted over to Fox as the mascot for Sparkle Motion.

The most surprising thing however was the trading floor. One could really get quite excited by those shouty men at the computers and phones. YES.

And yes, I have to stress again: PHIL AND FERN ARE LOVELY.

In other news, I am Fimo-crazy. I am modelling like a mad motherfucker. Does anyone want owt diddy making?

Also: come on people, join Twitter. It's internet crack. My page is here. Does that intice you?

swank and wank

nobody@vox.com(Lucy) — Sun, 31 Aug 2008 22:07:29 +0100

Feeling pretty swank:

I'm back in London! Hurray! My head feels so much lighter, I'm sleeping better, and I love my new flat. Anybody want to come round?
I'm walking better, and I'm not crying "ohhhhh fucking hellll owwwwwww" as much when I stand up, or generally move. Dad and I high-fived the other day when I managed to walk half-way to the Brunswick Centre before needing to get into the wheelchair.
After this, we strolled down the Mall, and ate mini marshmallows. Everyone should do this. as you can't be miserable while doing it, it's impossible.
Dad has stayed with me for a week - back home tomorrow afternoon - to get me moved-in and build my IKEA furniture. I was worried it wouldn't go, or fit into the place, but good Lord, it does! Shame he got screwdriver/stigmata wounds assembling it all.
Lovely, slim bloggers who live in Germany who send you delicious hot chocolate items to aid your weight/strength gain.
On the 11th September I'm going to some stock broker charity day at Canary Wharf. Slebs go too, and last year it raised £6m for charities, £100k of which went to Debra. I hope to pick me up a hot/rich broker.
My latest internet obsession is Twitter. It's like a 95% cut-down Facebook. Yet, it's not like Facebook, as it isn't like poison, more like a milkshake. That doesn't even make sense to me

A load of wank:

Despite walking and moving better, I have gained NO WEIGHT. It is fucking annoying, but I guess all I am eating is helping me in other ways, as mentioned above. My weight isn't even up and down, though, just at Scarily Low Amount of Kilograms all the time.
My right hand and wrist is well bloody sore. So sore in fact, that I can't grip stuff properly, and texting is impossible. Typing this isn't too great either, so I'll leave it there.

YAY TO MORE SWANK!

I tag everyone to do this swank/wank list.

I am sorry for the short entry but I am busting to wee (TMI, sorry).

Had my Guardian photos done today.

The photographer told me they wanted two sets of shots - one indoors and one outside.

This is because the editors want me to be on the cover of G2.

*falls over*
