I'm Loving... Threesome

Never did I think I would have a blog post with the title "Threesome" in it and, if I'm being totally honest, it's probably not what your Google search or inquisitive mind is looking for here.  Sorry and all that.

threesome, comedy central, Amy Huberman, Stephen Wight, Emun Elliott
A short while back I was flicking through the billions and trillions of Sky channels and found a British comedy called Threesome (I wasn't looking for Sexcetera, honest).  I've managed to watch all of series 1 from the beginning and we're now into series 2.

The premise of the show is that Alice is turning 30 and feeling old so her boyfriend (Mitch) and their gay best-mate-cum-flatmate (Ritchie) decide to give her a drink and drug-fueled present that makes her not feel old - a threesome.  A few weeks after the party, Alice finds out she's pregnant at almost the same time Mitch finds out he is infertile... 

There were hilarious guest spots from Pauline "Mrs Doyle" McLynn and Adam Garcia (swoon...) and it's probably the only time that I'll admit to a bit of a girl crush on the female lead.  Highlights of the first series were the lads going out and getting smashed when they were on a sober-promise to Alice, a space hopper fancy dress costume for Alice when she was almost at her due date and the three Nanas-to-be trying to make out the arrangement is normal and cool when they just really don't know how to handle it all.

I promise you, it's way more funny than I'm making it out to be.

Anyway - the new series has started on Comedy Central (look out for a repeat of episode one and catch up quick) and it's all about trying to be stay cool but bring up baby and if anyone wants to buy me series 1 and 2 as a gift then you only need to ask for my address *wink*

26 Bands From The 80's : Where Are They Now?

The other day, whilst out with my husband , I was listening to some UB40 in the car and wondered what they were up to now.  Then I saw this post from Buzzfeed and realised I totally needed to steal that idea.   BUT the problem with doing a "Where Are They Now" of the 80s is that they are either dead, accountants (dead accountants?) or in their mid 50's and, having realised they have snorted their pension up their nose, are dragging themselves onto the Reunion Tour concert circuit. So here are my chosen few that form my A-Z of 80's 'Where Are They Now?'   Do you fancy adding any of your own? Art Of Noise.   Last seen looking for Peter Gunn and desperately hoping that Tom Jones tells a "I know A rt Of Noise" story about them on The Voice. Billy Idol.   Currently setting off airport alarms all over the world after having a steel rod inserted into his leg following a motorbike accident in 1990.  Practicing Rebel Yell on Guitar Her...

[REVIEW] Canvas print from PrinterPix

Whilst dabbling in a bit of (very) amateur photography I occasionally have a favourite photo printed onto canvas.  It's usually a scenery picture and used to brighten up the walls in the lounge or at a focal point on the stairs.  Most recently I have had two images put through the process by PrinterPix . I sent off an image of my son after his Territorial Army passing out parade in April (proud parent moment) and one of our dog on the beach from a few months ago.  They were returned within a few days and looked even better than I had imagined. Soldier Boy is on a canvas that is 16" x 20" on a standard thickness (2cm) frame.  Michi is on a 12" x 16" canvas which is stretched onto a thickeer (4cm) frame.  Both have been printed using a gloss finish.   All canvases from PrinterPix are hand-stretched, use fade-resistant ink and tension wedges are fitted into the corners of each frame to aid stability. What do you think?  I'm in l...

7 Things To Do In Roda, Corfu

This year, our summer holiday took us to Corfu. We were staying in Roda on the north coast of the island and had a wonderful time. It's a beautiful Greek fishing village and has the most chilled and welcoming atmosphere I've ever experienced.  I'd love to share my recommended seven things to do if you visit Roda. Sunset over Roda harbour Swimming With The Fishes The coastline at Roda is completely flat so you can walk out quite a distance and still only be in shallow water.  The beach in the village is very sandy but becomes rocky as you move out of town towards some of the beach front hotels (twenty paces out to sea, it becomes sandy again). The water is generally very calm, beautifully warm and clear enough to see the occasional fish swimming by.   Chill out at the Boathouse As we walked down from our hotel, The Boathouse was one of the first bars we stopped at before continuing into Roda. It is perfectly placed between the rural coastal road that l...
