Thanks for all your birthday wishes posted on the blog yesterday—I passed them all on. Perhaps the most scary comment left was: “A teenage female in the house, good luck mate.” Cheers Stevie—just when I needed a laugh!
I got the feeling all day that yesterday was a public/local holiday of some [...]

Good day at work yesterday; busy, challenging, and one where some long-term results were finally realised. It’s the biggies that count most. I topped it off with a couple of pints of Guinness in Clark’s afterwards. Sorted.
Not much else done because the results I spoke of didn’t actually happen until between 7.30pm and [...]

It was a weekend to remember; a weekend never to forget. From St. Mirren Park on Saturday (arguably forgettable) to Depeche Mode on Saturday night (definitely forgettable), and from the ska party in Glasgow on Sunday to the Madness gig itself, it was a great weekend topped off by one of the best Madness [...]

I write to you from the warmth of my home office. Outside my window lies a landscape scattered with 1950’s housing, skeletal trees and a cloudy, overhanging sky. It’s not a particularly exciting view, in fact, at first appearance it looks downright miserable. Yet today will be a day to be remembered for all [...]

It’s a dank, drizzly day over Edinburgh and the only thing putting a spring in my step is the fact that today is Friday. And yesterday wasn’t a great day either, leaving me nothing much to talk about in my blog.
I got invited to a ska/bollywood birthday party in a couple of weeks but [...]

There’s still time to win a free copy of STELLA over at Cate Masters’ blog. You have until tomorrow to head over to http://catemasters.blogspot.com and leave a comment.
Things were somewhat more relaxed in the office yesterday. I’m still spinning plates but made good progress with some work. I took a slightly extended lunch (for [...]

I said I was beginning to get excited on Monday, yesterday I was almost fully distracted. Walking to work with Man at C&A, Do The Dog and Gangsters filling my ears, I could feel the adrenalin pulsating through my veins until all I wanted was it to be Wednesday and standing in the [...]

I’m feeling it increasingly difficult to think about anything else apart from Wednesday’s gig. I’ll keep the full spiel for tomorrow’s post, but from yesterday morning into last night I saw an increase of my excitement levels ten fold.
I’ve had The Specials blaring out of my iPod almost constantly, and my PC speakers at [...]

Well the Buddies got beat; another semi-final disappointment, this time at the hands of the Forces of Darkness. As far as footie matches go it wasn’t one of the best, but St Mirren, I felt, could have taken better advantage over one of the weakest Rangers sides I’ve ever seen. With a team full [...]

It would appear that TweetDeck is a pretty good thing – thanks Devon for leading the way. I installed it this afternoon and within five minutes had overloaded my API allowance and had to turn it off, such was my excitement at being able to track conversations properly. Imagine my surprise when I [...]

I got confirmation through from the Senior Acquisitions Editor at the venue I submitted Stella to a couple of weeks ago. Whether the email is a late courtesy or that it indicates something is happening is unclear.
The one problem with having so many manuscripts on the go is the level of excitement and perpetual [...]

I couldn’t sleep last night, and today I paid the price; heavy eyes and a grumpiness not seen since someone stole Stig of the Dump’s toilet seat. I wish that life could be simpler sometimes, but despite all I do to try and make that happen, things only seem to get more complicated.
I’ve [...]
Today I felt like I was falling from the sky without a parachute. Here’s why -
A parcel finally arrived for me at my day job – in the WRONG building. How on earth those pillocks in the mail office managed to send my parcel, which has my precise address on it right down to the [...]
