My dad tells me the secret of comedy is to keep it to the level of your audience, and a mention of S-Club 7 finds my level. So Boris, if you're not too busy running London I hereby declare you the winner.

There's some real scumbags out there. The guy a floor below me got robbed for the third time in less than three years on Friday. They hacked their way through two doors and nicked his iPod, camera and wedding ring. So why wasn't he wearing his wedding ring? Because the guy upstairs bonked his wife ...

My Name is Earl is my favourite show ever. That said, I watched an episode last night from the magic sky box where Earl did a creative writing class and it was just a bit weird.

Today is my niece's 9th birthday and she was named Georgia in honour of sharing her birthday with the patron saint.

Lucky for her, if she'd been born any other day she would have been named Xena. (As in Warrior Princess :oops: )
