Have just been reading an OK, or maybe it was a Hello, but anyway, waiting in a cold garage with nowt to do it seemed appealing. But sheesh... since when did 'star watching her weight' become 'breaking news'? Breaking news? In big red letters as well! sheesh!!! Totally bonkers! Far too exclamation points in this paragraph, but you know what I mean.

I like Look. It's a weekly fashion mag (but relatively affordable high-street fashion) and has a bit of gosspy stuff in too.

So, there I am in Tesco, doing the weekly grocery shop with ED when my mobile phone rings. It's DW with a few things she forgot to put on the list - no problem. And then she adds: "Oh, and buy me a magazine, please." "Sure," I say, "which one?" "Oh, you know, fashion and make-up and stuff." No, honey, I don't know.
