It is now almost 6:30pm on a Friday night and I am sitting in my bedroom typing on a computer in pitch darkness, why? Because I am trying to give the impression that there is nobody at home because outside it is swarming with the yobs of this estate banging on doors asking for sweets, [...]

Growing up in the East End of London, and running with certain people, I have seen some serious fights and attacks in my time but this morning I witnessed a savage attack that ranks possibly in the top five list.
I took my dog for a walk on the only piece of grass we are still [...]

When I do buy this home theatre system then next thing [...]

I recently bought a pay-as-you-go phone from my brother’s catalogue, I bought it before I ordered my contract phone so now I have two phones. My brother got this idea into his head that I was going to give him my contract phone (an LG Secret that is worth around £350) so he took my [...]

I was looking out of my front room window today, because I’m nosey, when I noticed that one of my neighbours on the ground floor (the one right underneath us) has recently purchased some of the coolest garden furniture I’ve seen.
He likes to hold garden parties. Not the kind you would see the royal family [...]

I am a very messy person. If you look at my bedroom floor it is awash with dirty clothes, I like to play a game called find a piece of carpet! I’m not a dirty person, I’m just incredibly messy and will throw my clothes anywhere
