So...Likewise, I am painfully late to this party...<br /><br />So, what am I currently obsessed with?<br /><br />1. My toddler's speaking. He is learning new words every day and I am embarrassingly proud of him. I take him into shops just so he can dazzle people by pointing out things, and so they can go OOOH ISN'T HE CLEVER? God, what have I become...?<br />2. Dry hands - central heating, my laptop, divine retribution... Something is making my mitts feel like I am wearing tight gloves and I HATE IT. <br />3. Heatworld website. I like to think of myself as medium to high brow. Why, when I read this?<br />4. Coronation chicken. The sandwich filling of the gods. (When they'd run out of ambrosia and nectar and all that shite.)<br />5. My blog, and the fact it is currently not working. Checking it every 5 minutes to see if it's up again. ARRRGHHH<br /><br />Merry crimbo Jane and thanks for mentioning me!<br />E xProduct Placementhttp://www.productplacementtheblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2235466434053435852.post-65742926126956037102009-10-30T14:48:05.271+00:002009-10-30T14:48:05.271+00:00I haven't been able to access your blog for a ...I haven't been able to access your blog for a while (or a couple of others, so it's a fault my end) and am now catching up.<br /><br />Thanks for passing this on... although I'm not sure I can whittle it down to only 5!Kit Courteneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07211606676705095432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2235466434053435852.post-61394265103847332542009-10-19T15:50:51.583+01:002009-10-19T15:50:51.583+01:00@Helen - Ah the bane of us all eh Helen?

The OU course is good and does feed into my own work but I have to say the best, most practical course I've ever been on has been with the Arvon Foundation. Run and taught by writers who really know what they're talking about. Highly recommended. Google them. I did hear that Irving Welsh taught a course and everyone just got very very pissed - but not much writing was done!Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16329937118727831213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2235466434053435852.post-28427823976039283722009-10-19T10:59:17.018+01:002009-10-19T10:59:17.018+01:00I particulary loved your number 4, Jane. My 17 yea...I particulary loved your number 4, Jane. My 17 year old is still in that phase I think. And fascinated that you are an OU tutor. Any recommendations for courses as some days I truly believe I am the best rubbish writer who ever lived.Helen Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10765832070235249081noreply@blogger.com
