It is kinda cool when you suddenly remember you have a night out planned when you had forgotten all about it. Friday night sees us heading down to the Webster Hall to see KT Tunstall – yippee! A great way to start the weekend….roll on Friday.

Sometimes all you need is a night out (and a few drinks) to lift your spirits. I was in two minds about going to tonight’s James Blunt gig @ the Bowery Ballroom. Part of me wanted to head home and flop, the other part knew that if I did blow it off I’d end up [...]
I have had a long and bizarre week. Best laid plans were thrown out the window and I am so glad that it is Friday night. I have been abusing my ipod by only listening to the one album, over and over again. It is just such a kick arse album, and I have my [...]
