There’s an Angel…..you know we love a lyric….but right now I wish there was an Angel…it’s 27th of January and this very fortunate girl ie. moi, has just been told she shall go to the Ball - in other words, I shall be going to the Brits again this year!
Now in my time, (and I don’t wish to blag…but I guess I am) I have been to a lot of Brit Awards - some years I have been working on them so the pressure of an outfit comes down to Converse sneakers, a big thick coat cos it always snows and they don’t turn the heating on anywhere till show time and hair looking like you’ve been dragged through a hedge backwards!
But in the latter years when I haven’t had to run around like a loon the pressure remains as bad as ever in what to wear…but this year there’s another one to contend with…how can I lose enough weight to get in to a frock I haven’t bought yet but know I will but not until I’ve shifted a good few pounds!
Now you’re gonna say …exercise like a maniac, don’t eat bread, potatoes, carbs, sugar, dairy, meat, and don’t drink…well the downside of that is 1 you are hungry, 2 you are no fun, 3 there’s mutiny in the family due to no food on the table and 4 quite frankly it’s never going to happen!
So perhaps with our old friend Robbie winning the big prize this year, that Angel he keeps singing about will come down and cast her magic wand (or be armed with Magic knickers!|) and all will well!
Failing that, I’ll just have to buy a tent dress…let’s get the Elle Guide to what’s in this season (Feb issue) and trawl till I find one! Budget obviously tossed aside in this instance and switch off when Husband insists I do not need to purchase as I have a wardrobe full!!!
As if…..xx
Well folks it’s Official… we are bored with the snow! Don’t want to be Bah Humbug about it all but it’s too much now… I am not in a chalet with a gorgeous ski instructor or drinking a nice hot toddy and my bloomin…..heating has packed up in the office which equally does not embrace me to the snow!
So what better way to cheer me up than to start thinking about my Summer hols and First Choice have come up with a sneakily good way to making me part with my money! Apparently January 18th is the most depressing day of the year! (who thinks of these things…)
So if you book your holiday through First Choice on the 18th January, they will kindly send you a voucher in the post for a free Spray Tan with the Tanning Shop! Now that’s quite a nice idea isn’t it!!
Christian Cull from First Choice says:
“Everyone needs something to look forward to especially in January, and just knowing you have a holiday booked can instantly lift your mood. So once you’ve chosen which wonderful holiday destination you’d like to go to this year head down to The Tanning Shop and get that ‘just off the beach’ golden glow to keep you in the holiday mood through the rest of January.”
Ciaran Mooney from The Tanning Shop says:
We are please to be supporting First Choice in lifting spirits at this time of the year. Many of our customers visit us before they go on holidays and it is clear the lift that people get by having something to look forward to.
A California Tan Spray at The Tanning Shop is perfect way to beat the winter blues”.
Bookings can be made at www.firstchoice.co.uk. NB. One voucher per booking only and only original voucher - no copies!! And the voucher is redeemable at any of the Tanning Shop outlets across the country for Spray Tan only and is valid for 6 months from that date. No cash value and By Appointment only.
There! All details there and now it just remains for me to decide where to go….mmmmm…happy holiday hunting!!

Well here we are again… another New Year but there is a difference!! Not only is it a new decade, but I have surpassed myself and not had a drink since New Year’s Eve! I am currently taking a bow as we speak!
So just thought I would share and care some fabulous tips to help keep me on the straight and narrow…
1. Still water is dull … so stick a couple of pieces of cucumber in it and wow ….. it’s almost a Vodka Tonic! Well it’s good enough for Kate Moss…
2. Hooping…and I am not talking coughing! Get yourself one of our Hoopnotica hoops and you’ll be slimline in no time!! And for those of you who think they’re too big…they can be made smaller….small point but actually not so obvious!!
3. Oatcakes and hummous - it is the new chocolate cake…..
4. So You Think You Can Dance….I hate it already so much that I might actually get hooked…. lycra and legwarmers are very 2010!
5. Snow…..nothing else to do but get the sledge out… 600 calories in that hour walking back up the hill!!!
Wow…come Jan 24th (my d day cos I go to Paris for the shows….and darling I must look fab!) the sun will be shining, I’ll fit into my skinnies again and the paps will picture me rather than Mrs Beckham….
No, you’re alright….who needs that stress….I’m just looking forward to a Vodka Tonic!! xx Cafe Ruc here I come!! xx
