F1 is here

mercedes_benz_mp4_24_f1_carI am not in the least big interested in the Formula One actually, but one of my dear online friends is to the point that I am driving insane — he’s done nothing but talk about it in the run up and now it has started he does nothing but talk about it, he’s already watched the Button qualifier four time.

I love reality television so I would never criticize someone else’s taste in shows, but really — watching cars go round and round and round a track, where’s the thrill?

I think he would about die if he ever got to watch it in person, or even drive one of the cars they use, like the Phoenix Mercedes Benz from DriveTheBest.com, they offer special lease and financing options and have over 200 cars to choose from.

 

The Biggest Loser USA – Episode # 4533

That’s what it feels like any way, how long has this season been going on exactly?

Watching the opening titles a lot of the situations and teams seem like forever ago to me, the orange team, the red team, those black boys and all that drama with the silver bullets — wow.

tara-biggest-loser-13jan09-150x150I am starting to wonder if Tara is perhaps a little bit on the slow side? And by slow I mean — stupid.

All that whingeing and moaning about being ganged up on, being picked on, being bullied, oh how unfair that every one wants to target her.

She’s the current biggest loser, she has been losing weight like a machine, she smokes every one in the challenges. She’s strong.

Does she really expect people to just roll over and let her take every thing? Does she really not understand that they want to win also?
Does she really expect them to just hand her the title?

She proved to them they were right in doing what they did by going on to win the challenge despite the deficit, that’s why they are all ‘picking on you’, well that and the fact you are incredible annoying, arrogant and wouldn’t know how to be humble if your life depended on it.

Of course they are going to try and make it as hard as possible for you, you silly sausage, get over it woman.

In other news, I am rooting for Kristen for the win — I think she can do it :)

 

Goodbye Nathan, boooooya!

Nathan got eliminated, na na na naa hey na na na naa.

ep45_240309_bnrideOnly, wait…he’s been eliminated fair and square again but he’s still not out of the game, he’s formed a White Team (wasn’t there already a white team this season!?) with Bob, who he took down with him and The Commando — or Steve, as he’s otherwise known.

I can understand why the producers keep saving him, he’s so narcissistic, egotistical, power hungry and money hungry that he makes good TV, people must love to hate him. But wouldn’t it be nice and novel for once to have a season of any reality show without producer interference, imagine that!

 

Skin Care

dawnpa2207_468x509I can’t think of aloe vera without thinking of Vera Duckworth from Coronation Street, I don’t know why — it just sounds like Jack saying hello to his wife to me and it makes me chuckle!

That silliness aside, I have been using aloe vera as part of my skin care routine for as long as I care to remember now. A habit passed down from my mother who has had me using lotions and potions and every thing in between on my skin since I was a teenager — I will thank her when I am older and get wrinkles much later than every one else she always tells me, and I am sure she’s right — Mothers always are :)

Bingo!!

I have said it before and I will say it again, I like to play Online Bingo and I am not ashamed to admit it!

Heck I like most online gaming, and I like interactive games so online bingo ticks all the boxes for me — you get to play and chat at the same time.

I love facebook like most people, but I easily spend most of my time on there playing the many many games available, especially the word games like scramble and scrabble — I am that annoying person who is always sending her friends requests to add this application and start a game of that with her etc :)

 

Dream Home

Looking at and Blogging about the stunning family homes available through Schumacher Homes last week inspired me to really think about my ideal home.

If money were no object designing and decorating my dream palace would be the most amazing experience, I always wanted to be an interior designer when I was younger!

The biggest and best luxury I could ever want in a home would be an indoor swimming pool. I’d go for a modern look throughout, lots of whites and browns and leathers. Big spiral stair case, huge fire place, big dining room table to fit all the friends and family around.

Bliss, I can picture it down to every last detail in my head.

 

The Appentice UK is back!

sugar0904_468x497Watching The Apprentice UK last night (yay, it’s back!) made me really want a Used Audi, seeing the new batch of candidates not only get driven around in them while they formulate their business plans, but also in this episode valet them — well talk about subliminal advertising, and talk about me falling for it like a sucker!

I will buy a Used Audi A3 at some point in my life, maybe not just now because I can’t afford one — not even used, but I am determined to own one eventually.

I have always had hand me downs in the past, usually old bangers passed on by family members. So to have a new and high quality car, well I would feel like Queen of the World :)

 

Burn more calories while you walk, yes please!

shoesWhy had I never heard about MBT shoes before? Apparently they help improve posture, tone muscles and best of all burn more calories when you walk!

I wonder if all the guys on The Biggest Loser wear these or similar? If they don’t, well they should — with such high expectations about their weight loss each week every little must surely help!
