I don’t know about you, but I have certain films that I go to whatever my mood, whatever I fancy that I will always enjoy. However, when it comes to other people watching the films with me, it’s not so good, because I know pretty much the whole script. My top three go-to movies are:…

Country Music & Me
Amy and I recently went to a country music festival in London, the first the UK has ever seen supposedly, and we thought it’d be cool if we both shared our views/opinions on it here on our blog!
The future and why I really don’t like to think about it!
It’s a standard cliché for a person not to think about their future, and it’s a box that I fit into incredibly comfortably. Not because I don’t think my future is bright, far from it! No, it’s more because I have literally no idea what I am going to be doing in 6 months time.
Mr Selfridge and his Make Up
Mr Selfridge has hit our TV screens on Sunday nights for the past three weeks and is supposedly quite accurate to the real story behind Selfridges. I saw Jeremy Piven (who plays Harry Selfridge) interviewed the week of the show’s premiere, and he commented on how close to what actually happened the show producers had kept…
London
I am really excited at the moment because I have started planning a weekend/saturday in london! Yay! The must-sees of my visit: the V&A, the National Gallery and the Natural History Museum!
Ellen’s Short Round Up of 2012
2012 is well and truly over, and it was a good year, with a lot of good films, music, books, and TV, so I thought I’d do a short round-up of my favourites!
What I’ll Miss About the Festive Season
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…
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…
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…
