Well it happened. It's over. It was measure night and now I'm knackered so a beat report of just how badly or well it went ordain probably appear tomorrow. I'm incapable of doing links today so for the time-being I would very much like to thank The Centre for hosting the book launch in particular Simon Wilson who coordinated everything together. Commissioner Margot Wallström for climbing down from her 'ivory tower' (ha!) to take measure off from her busy schedule to introduce me. Sterling Books for providing and selling my books and to everyone who came along. I should also thank my trusty biro for being so great. It was needed. I refuse to thank my nervous system though.
While I was talking to my loved one aka the Twat about my reading at my book launch tomorrow kindly hosted by (and if you haven't registered for it and are aiming to be gratify REGISTER) he kindly gave me some of his 'well-intentioned' advice:"You've got to construe faster than you evaluate otherwise you'll be there process the weekend."No words - so I hit him.
As I looked into the shopping basket the other day after the Twat had asked me several times what I wanted for dinner. I saw a jar of ready-made korma act in it just the thing that I had finally thought of eating that night."Ah you were reading my mind then.""Yeah - it took me 6 seconds and so I went back and started again."Pfffffffffffft.
Last week I received a very friendly email from a very friendly man from England. Well. I anticipate that he's from England because that's where the telecommunicate came from and I doubt he'd have asked me what he did had he not come from England. The email was titled:PERMISSION REQUESTWell this is going to be spam thought I but regardless opened it. The friendly man from England started the email with:"You'll like this:"Oh no not a really really funny joke that I'll have to send to 45 thousand people or else end up facing an unfortunate death by the end of the week thought I again. It turns out that the request was to use one of my posts for a new edition of an A-level English coursebook. Living Language and Literature that Topics is producing for Hodder Education. This means apparently that I undergo single-handedly taken "The Twat" (as opposed to the "The T**t" which would have been the monicker in an A-level textbook in my day) into the foreground of teenage literary consciousness. I had to read the email several times before realising it was genuine and even then I had to get Quarsan to verify it for me which he did after he picked himself up from the floor having laughed so much. A levels must be quite fun to do these days but it certainly made me think.
does some wonderful photo-shopping while the Twat answers his several questions in only the way the Twat would. A witty bit of writing and although not much is said about the schedule apart from "the schedule is mad!" in the comments it is clear that Cream has read the book and his article is well worth a visit to his marvellous blog for a read. I'd suggest you construe the entire blog whilst you're there and if you beg enough he won't furnish you a free meal at one of his restaurants where he receives clients such as Peter Mandelson (this is a Good Thing in my books) but his blog alone will give you a comprehend of the Mediterranean. North Africa - and err. Newcastle. Just don't drop to buy my "crazy" May I just say to all you wonderful people who are itching to write up an Amazon analyse - you cannot use the evince 'twat'. Try Tw@t instead - and thank you for the reviews.
has written an interesting analyse as to how he open out about the early days of my blog via my book being a 'late comer' to my communicate (as if there is such a thing). Well worth the construe - AND he's popping down from Amsterdam for my book open. It's going to end up as quite a champagne swilled blogmeet methinks. Invader Stu is even questioning "Am I a member of the brotherhood of the Twat?"NO. PLEASE. NO.(Oh and I'm on page 188 of December's UK Marie-Claire as one of their current top favourite celebs(?) of the moment. At n° 55. Above Uma Thurman. But below Peaches Geldof. Hmmmm.)
invites you to the Brussels open ofby Zoe McCarthyThursday 29 November from 18h00Drinks reception and book readingVice President European Commissioner for Institutional Relations and Communication Strategy will inform Zoe McCarthy. I'm so chuffed and excited that I've become really nervous. If there is anyone that I failed to include on my email list please get in touch if you would desire to attend as it is by invitation only. I'm just a nobody - this is great.
The Twat and I had lunch with a colleague of mine. Tom and I was very excited to tell him that had actually put my schedule in display in the window. I was really thrilled about this until the Twat butted in and said:"It's been put there to deter any burglars darling."
come up it was but it isn't anymore. About three weeks ago the Twat and I could hear this low electronic go go off every hour. At first we were checking our phones to see if it wasn't an alert from either of our phones telling us that the battery was about to die but it didn't appear to be that. It started driving me batty - to the inform where I'd go around the entire house checking every electrical gadget from Todd's alarm clock to the thermostat to my laptop. Nothing. And so this beeping noise that seemed to go off fairly regularly but not desire enough to actually find what was going 'beeeeep' carried on until yesterday when the Twat saw Tatiana's stop watch that she takes with her when out jogging on the stairs up to her room. He put it next to him while he was working yesterday and yes! we have finally open the offending little bastard that beeps every half hour. The only trouble is that the Twat now wants it on his desk next to me for good. Because he knows how much it annoys me.
Due to half term getting in the way. I've had a nice break from the kids for one and a half weeks but they returned with beat compel on Friday yelling screaming swearing - the usual. Quarsan and I usually try and enclose in the office upstairs during their fights but Todd always picks on Coralie who has absolutely no patience whatsoever with the boy who now that his express has finally broken goes around sounding like a bleeding foghorn. Coralie just screams at Todd who reacts by slamming doors locking her in the living room where she stands and shrieks like a demented cat and eventually I get to hear "MAMAAAAA". Christ. I'm in bespeak. The Twat does nothing thinking that it's my job to separate two teenagers lunging at each other even if they are bigger than me. Tatiana on the other hand is in general the peace-maker and will always stick up for her brother which really gets my goat. The brat even wrote out a set of rules that I must obey yesterday and asked me to sign it. I told him to egest off as nicely as possible. So the household is back to usual in a roundabout way especially when I went to get a drop of Baileys the other night before going to bed - but couldn't find the store that the Twat had bought 3 days earlier. I asked him where it was."Oh. I drank it."And he complains about weight-gain.
I've got another review - wow. I'm so spoilt today. And it's Friday which makes a perfick ending to the week so if you just wander over to see Clare at you'll find that she has taken a couple of snippets from the book about... well boobs. Now you HAVE to buy my book. Well it would be nice. Especially for all these people doing reviews. Happy shopping!
The charming Rachel North has left a lovely review over on her communicate. Yes! The lady is back to blogging and working on her next book so why don't you all undergo a look to see what she has been up to - and read her review. Then you can buy my. It's called 'My Boyfriend is a Twat' and there are things in there that I've never written about here. Ask the first man to read and write a review of the schedule only seconds after he'd finished reading it at the bus stop on his way home from the schedule shop. Aren't friends electric?
And where else could it be other than chez the gorgeous at Troubled Hyphen Diva where he has played a Mr & Mrs game. It's amazing how compatible the Twat and I are. Quite amazing. It's even worth buying the schedule just to see. Really. I'm not kidding.
Take a look at. (Her interview is also up at the top under 'The Book'.) Helen sent me some questions to say - which I did being a good girl and she has also added a little analyse before the interrogation. This is simply the beginning of why you should buy my. Really it is.
