So you may think that the two don't go together and you are technically correct but it all happened at the same time!
Ruby was always busy at work and I hated that I was the only girl sometimes, but if I couldn't beat them, I would join them... so I did. The famous Chapel Street was our oyster for the night.
Naturally wearing leather trousers, as is standard for me, I was all doled up and off out with the boys! I was drunk. Again. It was the night where I really started to feel comfortable with people and I must say things that happen in the bathroom (wink wink) should stay in the bathroom... they sort of did. Nobody to this day knows about it and I can't divulge just in case. Sorry folks. Basically things didn't stay they, they continued, in secret...
So I've told you about the Chapel... now for the pregnancy... Miss Cupcake sends me a text to say that she has missed her period and thinks she is pregnant. This is amazing as I know that her and Dale were trying. Though when she sent me a picture of the positive pregnancy test the next day she swore me to secrecy!
It was a few days later where Ruby invited me for a girls night for her friends birthday... this is where I formed an amazing friendship with Klara... OMG... the girl is bloody amazing despite there being a 6 year age gap... it just totally works... she is awesome... The night took a serious dive from there though. Everyone was too drunk and I was too sober (this is the only time that happened!) and I was just bored and wanting to go home!
Until Next Time... xx
The Adventures of Me and My Mini... Down Under
After ending my relationship of 6 years to my first 'proper' boyfriend due to his infidelity (and a secret love child with one of his employees as I later found out) I was made redundant. Twice. This is my rise from Rock Bottom and the antics along the way. p.s. I drive a Mini Cooper... The adventures can be found in my blog posts in the left hand column, start on 19th Oct with "When The S**t Hit The Fan"...

I'm Back... For Now...
Apologies once again for taking so long to post. You see I have been having adventures to write about! No excuse I know, but instead of being diary entries this blog has become more of a short book version of my life. I shall continue the story (don't worry, I make notes and keep a bullet point list of everything I do so I can be accurate!)...
So there was a defining friendship night...
Moving into a big house, with new people that I dodn't know I knew I would have to really up the ante to make friends! Coming home from work one night I decided that I really needed a bottle of wine as this would be the opener for me having conversations with my new housemates. When I got in, it turned out that they all had the same idea as me, and conincidently we all had the same bottle of merlot. Possibly as result of it being on special offer in the local shop!
We proceeded to all sit around the dining room table and have general chit-chat. I felt kind of like the attention was all on me, given that I was new and other than Ruby the only female, it was about me. It wasn't long before all of the bottles of wine were verging on empty and we were starting to giggle and laugh. I had found people with the same sense of ,humour as me!
Ruby had returned from her dinner with her work friend Margot and joined us. I had hit it off mostly with Jim in terms of conversation, he seemed to be the Papa Smurf of the group so I knew I needed to be his friend. It wasn't long before he asked for my phone number and a friendship was born. Ruby then called me a C*** and I have never laughed so much in my life!
We also decided in an extremely drunken haze to throw an "inappropriate party" which we were planning as soon as the idea came up! The suggestions for said party were sick to say the least and I do not even want to repeat them here and have them posted, because it means they really happened...

I Was Stupid In Front Of Johnny Depp...
I got up the next morning and ran to the bathroom before anyone could see me. Luckily it was quiet and there wasn't anyone around. I took my make up and made sure I looked imaculate on my exit! You know, the shampoo advert look: perfect make-up, wet but neat hair and a towel. A much better way to bump into someone... I didn't though, everyone was already out at work. I started at 10, which was unusually late compared to the UK, but it seems that nothing happens here until at least 10. I went off to work as usual on Chapel Street.
Later in the day after lunch I was almost falling asleep I was so tired, so I popped out to get me and Barb a coffee form the shop next door.. Chappellis. As I walked in I looked up at the counter and saw Johnny Depp looking back at me. Jesus, Joseph and Mary. Now you would think I would ask to have my photo taken with him or get his autograph wouldn't you? And I did I do that? Of course not... I went weak at the knees and said "you don't look the same without your eyeliner on, I think I fancy you more with it, Don't worry, I still would"... He smiled, I apologised and went red and then just got embarrassed. Man I needed to learn to be cooler.
I got home and told my new housemates about what had happened, they laughed! I had by this point learnt their names but hadn't got to know them. I noticed them in different orders: Firstly Towel Guy, Or Mickey. He had a lovely jaw. Then Adam, he was tall, could play the guitar and was incredulously good looking. Male model like. My friends from home saw a picture of him and they all thought he was handsome. Then there was Jim, he wore glasses and was really funny. And finally a tall dude call Tim.
It was several days until I properly got to know them and before I met the famous Ruby, the lesbian that lived at Clarence Street. I was nervous about meeting her, the boys always spoke so highly of her, I was petrified that she would hate me...
