First Sherlock Holmes Stills December 16, 2008
Posted by Helen in : Movies , 1 comment so farRobert Downey Jr really is one of the actors of 2008 as, with one swoop, he ressurected his career with Iron Man. Directort Guy Ritchie has had similar success this year as he returned with RocknRolla after a couple of movies that he would rather forget.
But for their next project the pair have come together to retell the story of Sherlock Holmes that has been filmed all over the UK in recent months. Downey Jr has taken on the role of the super sleuth with Brit actor Jude Law is sidekick Watson.
Take a look at a couple of the first stills from the movie.
the routine has begun… December 16, 2008
Posted by Laura in : Belly Dancing , add a commentWell, I’ve made it to 6 weeks in… and no change.
Seriously, I don’t feel happier, healthier or any of that crappy nonsense. May have something to do with me wanting to punch my teacher though… blonde, thin and nauseatingly happy; she is beyond annoying!
So, i really want to give up and luckily I only have one more week to go. What have i learnt in six weeks? well I’ve learnt I have no balance or rhythm for a start, and that I’m never going to learn how to belly dance properly either.
I’ve become pretty with the whole thing since I started, maybe because I’m knackered coming in from work each night and find it difficult to get motivated.
That said, I’m sticking with it and I’ve started learning an actual routine now, which I have about 1 week to perfect before I go away for Christmas.
Better get practising!
Remember- Keep (belly) dancing!

Christmas Wish list December 16, 2008
Posted by jess in : Fashion , add a commentAll I want for Christmas is….hmmm well I can’t seem to narrow it down to one thing how about one thing for five different categories?
That seems like much more fun!
Well I think the one thing I would really like to see in my stocking this year is Steven Gerrard! All scouse and fit mmm yes please! That would do me nicely! Well since Mr Gerrard already has a Mrs Gerrard and a couple of kids in tow I don’t think I’ll be getting him any time soon!
The only CD I need in my life this year is Britney’s new album, Circus. She might have mimed on The X Factor but I don’t care! I just want to dance around my room to her great pop songs pretending I’m Britney circa 2004 before her K-Fed, shaved heads and umbrella bashing days!
Ok so I need a new outfit to go with my new Britney look, I think I’ll go for one of Balmain’s one shouldered metallic dresses. The label is already gaining the recognition it deserves and is bound to be huge next year so I’ll be one step ahead of the trends in their gorgeous dresses.
I think I’ll need a few nights in after spending all my money over Christmas so perhaps a new DVD would be a good present for my penniless nights. There can only be one film for me, Sex and The City the movie. I’ve already seen it three times but it was THE film of the year for me. And every time I watch it I find a new outfit I want to emulate!
Now I need to pick something random to finish my Christmas wish list…I’ve got it a gorilla outfit for a fancy dress day! I know it sounds a bit crazy but bear with me! Imagine the fun and havoc you could cause dressed as a gorilla, no-one would know it was you and you could just go crazy and dance like a loon! And it would keep you warm in these chilly winter days! Perfect!
But i suppose I’ve ruined it now as everybody WILL know it was me!

The office is buzzing with the talk of Alexandra Burke winning X Factor. Fair enough she has an incredible voice, but her personality is as dull as dishwater.
When is Dizzee Rascal going to learn that violence is just not cool? After getting road rage and settling it with a baseball bat, I don’t think he’ll be up for most reformed character of 2008.
I’ll tell you who will be up for a wonderful peace gong though; our favourite rocker, Bono after (almost) bagging himself the Nobel Peace Prize. Well done Bono, proving that being nice is still cool.
I know that going into hospital can be a horrific experience in general, but imagine if you arrived to find that your nurse was none other than Amy Winehouse? Well unfortunately for patients at London Clinic, that nightmare is all to real. It doubly sucks to be in hospital now!
I always suspected that Nicole Scherzinger was a feisty character but she’s apparently laid down the law with boyfriend Lewis Hamilton. Maybe she’s got sick of him wearing more leather than her?
