I've got to be honest, I've never been a huge fan of the character Carol Danvers. I don't dislike her, she's just always been one of the Marvel heroes who never really captured my imagination, so I didn't go into this movie as hyped as I was about seeing Thor, Spidey or Captain America on … Continue reading Film Review: Captain Marvel

Ranking Pets
Does what it says on the tin. 7. Rabbits Names: Thumper and Cottontail Rabbits are the worst. My sisters and I were suckered in by the fact they look cute and are traditionally portrayed well, like Bugs Bunny, Bucky O'Hare and Buster, Arthur's mate. But when we got them we realised they are awful pets. … Continue reading Ranking Pets
Moving Out
This weekend MWF and I took a big step forward and moved into our first house together. I've lived outside my family home before, but this is the first time I've lived with a partner and it all feels rather grown up. We picked up the keys on Saturday and spent the day moving some … Continue reading Moving Out
1 down, 8 to go
If being a parent is half as stressful as this week, I'm happy to wait a while, because fretting about what MWF calls "our little fur baby" was a stressful and tiring experience. Midnight, our little black fuzzball, is a natural scavenger and any food below waist height is fair game as far as she's … Continue reading 1 down, 8 to go
London Part 5: Chicken and Cats
Dan took us to a place called Ma' Plucker a small place that did chicken. You picked a base, sauce and type of chicken and I went for maple waffle, fried chicken and gravy. It sounds weird but it really worked. The atmosphere was laid back and food was a little slow but we didn't … Continue reading London Part 5: Chicken and Cats
Curiosity killed the cat, I just injured it
The last few days I have been racked with guilt. And utterly unable to ignore or forget it because I am confronted with the consequences of my actions on a regular basis. What awful thing have I done? What is my own telltale heart reminding me of my evil deed? The guilt is brought back … Continue reading Curiosity killed the cat, I just injured it
Budapest Part 2: Feline Good
So, MWG was flagging. We'd seen the synagogue, and the outside of St Stephen's basilica, but we needed a break from walking and a boost. Luckily, I'd spotted a flyer for something I knew would perk MWG right up and the map informed us we were mere minutes from it, and so we headed for … Continue reading Budapest Part 2: Feline Good
Are you out of your Vegan mind?!
First of all, despite that title, I just want to say that this is not an attack on veganism. If you want to live that lifestyle, then carry on, each to his own. Although, I will say this- if you are vegan, please, please don't walk around like that makes you better than the rest … Continue reading Are you out of your Vegan mind?!
Pic Post: Puns, Signs and Cool Robes
Pun in the Sun The Sun newspaper is awful. But they do pun with the best of them. Whacky races The deep thinking of the deep drinking Well done that, man Potential psychopath alert! Maths pun Easy, but still fun. Geek chic! I really want the Chewie one. Regular readers will realize that the "Hot … Continue reading Pic Post: Puns, Signs and Cool Robes
Pic Post: Pets, Penny and Patronisation
Okay, so the Cats vs Dog thing has been done to death, but this one did make me smile. This is a real, honest to god advert from a dating site I kinda get the impression they don't have a lot of respect for their customers. Why ban this? They've clearly put all the things … Continue reading Pic Post: Pets, Penny and Patronisation
