I’m taking a leaf out of Ben’s book and starting a weekly tie-up post for all the loose ends and admin stuff I have (not that there’s a huge amount, but I like to think I’m important).

- I’m working on developing a new blog in a similar vein as Kaboodle Blog and Rare Bird Finds, as these are my two favourite blogs and I always thought I would enjoy this style of blogging myself. I’m still working on getting some posts up and ironing out the bugs, but I am thinking about taking on some guest bloggers so if you have a particular product or item you think is unusual or particularly desirable that you would like to write about, let me know. I’ll keep the blog address quiet at the moment as it’s still being worked on, but I promise you’ll be the first to hear about it once it’s up and running.

- I’m going to be in Edinburgh this weekend checking out Edinburgh University and the city itself. I’ve never been before, so it should be interesting. Rob and I are going up with our friends Ben and Sarah, so we’ve decided to take photos of our road trip for all the world to see. Keep an eye out for those on Monday or Tuesday of next week… if we don’t get snowed in up there, as the forecast is seeming to hint at.

- I’ve upgraded to Wordpress 2.5, so I’d appreciate it if you could let me know if you come across any glitches. As far as I can tell the upgrade was successful and nothing broke, but you never know.

- Why are the British fashion magazines so boring? Perhaps its because everything is so expensive that even I can’t fool myself into considering buying the things they feature. Give me Shop Til You Drop any day.

This is coming to you live from my new Inspiron 1525 laptop which, much to my delight, has a touch screen embedded into the keyboard which allows me to control my music without having to move the mouse or touch any keys!
