Thank you, dearest readers, for this week's Celebrity who has hair like my Dog. This one was a great suggestion and there were so many pictures to choose from on Google Images. I have to ask though, and I am absolutely not intending to be offensive or facetious,...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 7
How did I miss this one? Courtney Love literally has millions of photos of herself online with her hair looking like Dexter's! Her Google Image search results are like an Aladdin's Cave of Dexter-esque hairstyles! It's also an Aladdin's Cave of the slightly bizarre...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 6
Yes, we are still pootling along with this feature. I'm not out of ideas just yet! And today's celebrity with hair like my dog is quite a good one, I think: Jane Fonda. God love her. In her seventies and her hair still looks perfectly coiffed! A little too coiffed,...
Midweek Happiness: Dog + Blowing Bubbles
Bubbles must be quite a weird thing for animals who have never seen them before - touch them and they disappear! I loved Dexter's little confused face and waggy tail in this bit of video, so I stuck it up on Youtube. A bit of midweek cheer. Enjoy! (In this video I am...
Must-Have Candle of the Season (with hidden bugs!)
It takes quite a lot to get me excited about a candle but this new release from Jo Malone is really worth taking a look at. It's from the new home collection that's been created in collaboration with the talented wallpaper and textile designer, Michael Angove. If...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 5
Above: Dexter the Cockapoo. He of ridiculous hair and a penchant for rolling in the faeces of various species. (Poet and didn't know it.) Below: Yeah! Richard Branson! He of floppy blonde locks and global domination! Just when he thought that he had ticked off all of...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 4
This week's celebrity with hair like my dog: Meg Ryan. Please do keep these celebrity suggestions rolling in, they are immense. I may have to start doubling up on my celebrities - or even presenting you with three or four at a time - otherwise we'll still be here at...
Book Rave: The Shock of the Fall
I haven't been this excited by a book in a long time: Nathan Filer's The Shock of the Fall is one of those novels that reaches out, grabs you firmly by both ears and refuses to let go until you've finished. I polished it off in just over twenty-four hours and I have...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 3
Ah, another instalment of Celebrities who have hair like my dog. What more could you ask for on a Saturday morning? What more? This week I've gone for one of the more popular suggestions and it's possibly the most obvious too - in fact it was this particular celebrity...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 2
Above, my dog Dexter; below, Boris Johnson. He definitely has hair like my dog. There are probably many other similarities, but it would be uncouth of me to go into them in any great detail. I'll stop at "clueless expression" and "naive sense of joie de vivre". I have...
Aromatherapy Associates: Portable Relaxation
The launch of Aromatherapy Associates' Deep Relax Balm is great news for me; I've often wished that I could enjoy the benefits of the Deep Relax oil blend without having to actually get into the bath or shower. It's not always convenient to just hop into the tub when...
Celebrities who have hair like my Dog: Part 1
Above, my dog, Dexter. Below, Owen Wilson. His hair is a bit like my dog's hair, don't you think? I realise that this subject matter makes for a rather "thin on the ground" post, but hey - it's Saturday! It's also the first day of the month, so it's only fair to start...
