I am a self-confessed Christmas-aholic. Everything to do with Christmas, I absolutely love. Christmas is a fabulous time of year; the celebration of the birth of our Saviour, Jesus Christ (kick off the list with the important one), the happiness everyone is filled with, the joy on everybody’s faces, the warmth in people’s hearts, the…

Top 10 films of 2012… According to Amy
I want to start by saying that in no way is this a definitive list. I’ve used this as a conversation starter for the past couple of weeks and I’ve had an insanely mixed bag response.
Ellen’s 2013 New Year’s Resolutions
2012 came and went so fast I barely gave a thought to my years’ resolutions, let alone thinking about ones for 2013! As 2013 (or, has my parents have lovingly labelled it, two-zero-one-three) has hit us big and hard, right between the eyes, I figured I ought to think about this yearly tradition!
My Abysmal Irregularity
I know a lot of people have exactly the same problem as I do, so some folk out there will identify with this post. I start things and don’t finish. I begin doing something and then forget it exists. I love the idea of doing something and then other things come along and the original…
The top ten films I haven’t seen
I know that the title of this blog is a little bit of an oxymoron, but I recently discovered that there are a fair few films that, as a self-proclaimed film fan, I should have seen. So I will seek to rectify this in the near future (and maybe I’ll post a mini review after…

I mean, I’d love to be her bestie. I think she’d be a great girlfriend. Giving you relationship tips, insights into ice…
Why half term sucks
There. I said it. Half term stinks. And you know why? Because I’m not a spotty fifteen year old with an attitude problem. I’m a spotty 23 year old with a problem with kids.
An Incredibly Disappointing Ending
I have recently felt extremely let down by the final pages of two different books. The first book was Eat Pray Love by Elizabeth Gilbert (Yes, the same story as the film with Julia Roberts in it). I loved it. It was so refreshing to read an autobiographical book that not only made me laugh, but it…
Skyfall: The Best Bond Film Yet?
The hype for the latest instalment of the Bond franchise has been beyond anything the series has seen before. Maybe it was the 4 year hiatus, or maybe it was the mild concern that the last film wasn’t exactly… great. Maybe everyone was just feeling extra patriotic after the Olympics. Who knows? But this Bond…
