There's nothing worse than being stuck in traffic with a slowly-dissolving fish oil capsule wedged in your throat. I'd popped back home for a quick lunch and hastily swallowed a few supplements on my way out of the door. With no water or hope of imme...

Try Pumpkin Soup this Halloween! I'm so na?ve! I met up with the girls at the Phoenix today as we thought we'd buy some witches outfits for Halloween. However, it turns out that trying to buy witches outfits a few days before Halloween is a little li...

ollowing on from last week's story about sweaty hotpants, I've had another scary pants encounter. This time at a spa where in preparation for a deluxe body peel, I was asked to wear a pair of paper knickers, manufactured to cover ... hmmm, how do I p...

Just as I was struggling for inspiration this week, Jasper threw up on the bedroom carpet. For those of you who haven't got to grips with this yet, Jasper is the dog, not the lovely husband. It seems that although Jasper regularly supplements his die...

My lovely husband would give anything for this article to be about sinus problems. But poor him, in the wake of an article on cystitis, I'm actually moving on to embarrassing subject number two: constipation. It must be hard being married to someone...
