A new era...

It is the end of the month. And year, as some people prepare to move on to pastures new. One thing is I won't see my friend Leann Davison again, as she is moving out of the college altogether and hoping to get a job. We gave each other a goodbye hug this afternoon, and I hope to find another friend at the college next year!

New proud parents!

Congratulations are in order for telly couple Lauren Laverne & Steve Jones, as Lauren had entered labour 12:23pm this afternoon, and things happened so fast Steve ended up holding Lauren's hand in the delivery room! Couple of minutes after labour though (and as a good job she was in the hospital delivery room), her contractions kicked in, Steve felt a loss of his circulation but it was all worth it as to the couple's amazement, a tight gush and their little boy popped out, just like that! It wasn't done with Lauren's push though, and the pair have named their baby son Jake, and he weighed in at 2lb 9oz!

Crash, slip bang!

An accident happened last night which was quite unusual. While there was wet floor in the bathroom, I went to get a wipe I'd used to put into the bin, only as I did so my right foot went sideways and I slipped straight onto the floor! Luckily I'd landed on my back and nothing else was hurt, but it could've turned out worse.... If that wasn't anything to go by, I think the breakage of my four little toes has been a result!

Holly's blamed for shoplifting!

She may look happy, but the news is out. Apparantly the lady of the south bank shop in London is becoming very cross with Holly Willoughby everytime Phil Schofield's babe walks into the shop to get something. And that's because she could've sworn she saw her take a magazine out of the store without paying for it the other day! And so everytime she picks another one up the lady throws ice down her back and asks, ''did you REALLY take that book without paying for it the other day?!" But has she really stole it or is the lady just telling lies to throw ice down her back?

Roy and the live love song!

There is always something about Scouting For Girls's Roy Stride and how he plays live compared to how he sounds on the normal music video. There's this UB40 cover he reprises, or more like unearthes, and he even lets the crowd have his input! He seems to get a seemingly effortless reception, however the song he's singing we may want on the ipod. Here's a snippet of Roy singing UB40's Can't Help Falling In Love, to which he gets a seemingly effortless reception:


...And here's the proper UB40 one:

Leg (minus hip) pain

If I'm not in hip pain to get things off to a head, I now feel a pulled-muscle(ish) pain in the thigh (middle bit) of my leg. Now if needs be I'm going to cut out the walking I do and ask for a sit down after 5 minutes, but this is really getting on my body now. I'm weakening with age, and I know it might sound daft, but walking is starting to become my first weakness. I hate walking too much, and if a hip pain isn't anything to go by, a pain in the thigh bit of my leg is another result!

Phil manages a perfect 30!

Despite week one of Torvill & Dean's Dancing on Ice competition when Phil came 3rd skating to Addicted To Love by Robert Palmer and earned his first perfect thirty by a first set of decent straight sixes - well last night, week 13 of the competition, Phil did the same again. This time he and Holly glided away to Take That's Shine, and Phil just had to triumph and prepare himself for the score! In rolled in a 6.0 from Karen, a 6.0 from Nicky, a 6.0 from Jason, a 6.0 from Ruthie and a 6.0 from Robin - and that's when it gave him the BIG 30.0 as a total score! He even got praised for the end of his routine, which saw the silver fox do an electric-guitar looking ending! We think he's going to become this year's perfect champion!

I've became a Scouting For Girls wolfcub!

Because I'm becoming such a fan of ipod artist Scouting For Girls, it was suggested by my brain (and heart) that I register on scoutingforgirls.com and become a wolfcub! I've already played their music at least 64 times and downloaded the podcast of SFGtv to watch, now I've decided to become a wolfcub for the band and signed up. If I forget my password, I ask them to send me a temporary one. Now incase I log in again, I've changed it to a one that will easy stick into my head and hopefully will not be forgotten!

NON STOP SPAM!

I have felt like this: this: and this: when I checked my Gmail account for the second time and saw spam in it! When I thought only my louiseolver@yahoo.com account just received it! No, it's starting to come through the Gmail one, too, and I may have to contact Google and give their customer services a try because it's becoming a never-ending shock! I haven't received spam in my Gmail account at all, and to get some is extremely unusual. What's more, there was three. God, you know I'd just love to find out where from, why, and how I am getting it!






Love in the air for Roy & Gabriella!

You might think this is the wrong thing to say - we certainly don't feel a spark may be arising between Roy Stride and Gabriella Cilmi. Roy, for starters, is currently married to once-80s TV presenter Michaela Strachan. And singer Gabriella Cilmi has a boyfriend of her own. Though the chemistry may be in the air for them, today Gabriella has attempted to kiss Roy and Roy hasn't accepted it... Yet. But watch this space, it might be a chemistry bubbling, or, due to Roy being married to Michaela, they might only be friends!

1st mystery money mail (into the google account)

Spam spam and more spam is getting on my wick. If it's not my louiseolver@yahoo.com receiving it, it's the one in Google mail (not really, this has been the first one). I checked the Gmail and there was 6 - the first scouting for girls newsletter, 3 or 4 more twitter followers (some to follow back, some already following). But one caught my eye, and it was from someone called ROSE. The e-mail address had apparantly earned £14,0000 million (or above that sum of money) and it didn't say 'To Me' like it does. Which got me thinking straight away that it was spam! Anymore of that nature and I'm reporting it to Google.

And another thing, Yahoo will not let me change my mail profile picture for some reason. When I try to upload a fresh image, it comes up Bad Request: Result: Undefined. I press try again and the same happens. I hope it gets resolved soon, as one thing's for sure: I'm not contacting Yahoo's rubbishy costumer care service!

New layout!

Well we did put the wrong date on the last post - sorry about that. And blogger, what's more, have introduced a new blogger template designer, which changes the look and feel of the blog. We have opted for this new blue layout (blue is my favourite colour, after all). So does everyone like the layout or do you loathe it? We'd love to hear your views!

Got their address!

I must an e-mail mad geek, because the next persons to receive an e-mail are ipod artists Scouting For Girls. When Roy, Greg & Pete next check their e-mail, they'll be surprised to see one from me, their biggest fan, saying that I fancy Roy loads! On saying that, I'm still waiting a response back, and will add their contact in my Google mail contacts with a picture so when the response comes, ''Scouting For Girls'' will be displayed!

Early finish

Weird day - I usually finish at quarter past one, instead, I've the rest of the day off by coming home at 11am! Early, but that was the time schedule.

It was supposed to be sar day, but Jean Black apparantly wanted us in for Numeracy, so that had just gone down the drain - in for 2 hours.... POINTLESS!

Somewhat surprising notification

Today I checked the e-mail (gmail) to see what delights was in store, to see if there were more twitter followers to follow back or idiots to ban from the Phil fan community. Only it turns out a somewhat surprising notification e-mail come from someone called Bethany C explaining she'd visited this blog and was super impressed by it's content and design! She also explained she'd launched a site that lets you share your fashion tips and get answers to your fashion-related questions called lookville. It was for Beta-testing, apparantly, but unfortunately it was invitation only. She said she'd love to have me on it and inserted a link to click if I was interested. I looked at the site and was forwarded to a form requiring a sign-up. I wasn't interested at first, but I hope the link is valid still just incase I change my mind and do become interested to sign up in the meantime

Michaela vs Holly: Fight?


Phillip Schofield's missus (pictured top) and Roy Stride's missus (pictured below) aren't the best of best friends at the moment. Michaela's nudging her back up against Holly for heaven knows what, while Holly's nudging her back up against Michaela! A fight could well kick off between the two women, and we think we know why.... Michaela Strachan's the wife of the Scouting For Girls singer and Holly Willoughby's the wife of the Dancing on Ice/This Morning host!

Phillip & Roy: Who's the sexiest?

We're pushing our backs up on who's the sexiest fella out of the two following fancy men I fancy. Roy Stride of Scouting For Girls and Phillip Schofield of Dancing on Ice. On the one hand, I much admire how Phil looked (hairwise) in 2007. On the other, I much admire how Roy looks in the video for Heartbeat. We have inserted the videos below and we'll let you decide who I have a right to fancy most (based on grins, looks and hair).

Phillip (Dancing on Ice 2007)


Roy (song video for Heartbeat)


Sorry we had to insert the making of the song video for Roy's look, but it's as close as we could get.... Who's sexy out of the two? You decide!

Another boring test!

In literacy today, as usual, we were asked to work towards our portfolios which we are doing until the end of the year at least. You would've guessed that another boring test was among the heap of things we had to do, but I don't mind doing it. One thing made me blush however, and I'll take great pride in sharing it with you all!

I was asked to do a short task book involving TV records. There were three TV records made up, plus questions to answer on the next page. And I had to choose from answers A, B, C or D. Put a circle round what I thought was the correct answer and if I changed my mind I could just cross out my circle and put another one on another answer. One of the TV records happened to involve This Morning, that's fancy man Phillip Schofield's programme! I almost went green with envy when the date: 9th July 2002, Phil may of joined the day before that, but he joined the daytime show in 2002 anyway. Then the next task asked you to make a TV record of your own, with basic information such as the date, the channel, the name of the programme and the times it ran til. I was going to go with Dancing on Ice, but instead I had enough of making myself blush so I put EastEnders on my TV record instead! How stingy! Well actually, it was to stop me thinking about it as much because I'm a know-it-all about programmes like that!

After I'd finished my own TV record I was asked to create, I then had to have a TV chat with Danielle Jackson using the basic info I had on my TV record plus other TV programmes I liked to watch. And this was the bit where I had to make myself blush and reveal, ''I like to watch everything including Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby". Now some people don't even know how much I REALLY love that silver fox Phillip and his now-wife Holly, some people don't even know who the twosome are, but Danielle Jackson knows who I'm going on about because she's watched or met them before (I suspect). Anyway, it's Phil's looks I'm falling for, and now that's over, I tend not to dwell on it. Hopefully it'll be something else that doesn't even come close to me blushing or revealing how much I love Phil the next time!

The weird (brick related) dream

The dream I had last night was another somewhat unfamiliar dream involving technology. Infact, I'm not sure whether I've had it before. The suspended brick, which was named Nokie til 2006, had all the keys which were working perfectly until it broke down in Larashelle in France back in 2008. Since then, I've been left unable to use key 7. And I know what you're thinking, it's the amount of abuse I've given it over the years from 6 months to 7 year old. Well last night, it was quite funny, because I had a dream that I could still use key 7! Really I now can't. I'll be delighted if one day my estranged dream comes true, but how really deluded was I? I still can't use key 7, it's all been a dream!

Roy gets his hair cut

How smart does the Scouting For Girls singer Roy look now with his hair cut? Don't get us wrong, it may of taken a little persuasion from his wife Michaela Strachan, but we think he looks champion now his hair's lovely and short and Michaela has also confessed it's much better cut than bits of hair poking at either side which makes it look like it's long and isn't a very good look for Roy!

Paul & Hannah: Now a married couple

Who'd of thought that ex-S Club 7 bandmates Hannah Spearritt and Paul Cattermole would fall back in love with each other even after Hannah cheated on Paul a few years ago by having an affair with Andrew-Lee Potts of Primeval? Well all has been forgiven, and after the birth of their baby daughter, Paul had a surprise in store: in the shape of getting down onto one knee and proposing to Hannah! On the 4th June last week, the pair have got married then spent a night in Island for their honeymoon.... Ahh, god bless!

The germs return!

If I wasn't coughing my chest off alone the last time, I'm coughing again, only this time, a runny nose's come with it. I don't know why this has to happen the week I'm back to the college, but I may have to be off because if I sneeze I'll get wrong - I'll be made to clean the tables. And as where food is being prepared, I'll have to tell Diane White I can't cook the way I am, whether she'll believe me or not I don't know. Just why do I keep getting coughs and colds and illnesses I can't afford!
