Ghoulishness, celebrity breakups...
What is it about human nature and wanting to see an accident scene - evidently there are loads of daytrippers going to the ferry disaster site - too ghoulish. As if we don't see enough of the wreckage-details on all the news reports!
More celebrity breakups – Tulisa and Fazer of NDubz are over and Heidi Klum and Seal are splitting or on some sort of major break from each other. They looked like one of the happiest couples in showbiz.
And another Heidi is heartbroken - Heidi Range of the Sugababes (she looked amazing in gold for Dancing on Ice) and DJ-presenter Dave Berry also called time.
Then there's Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis... not that the Depp-worshipping brigade will be losing sleep over that breakup.
It's that time of year where so many couples fall apart (though Johnny and Vanessa have evidently been apart for awhile) - the run-up to Christmas, over Christmas and New Year's is supposed to be a happy time but it actually heaps strain on relationships already at breaking point.
Have had a few people ask me for my chocolate chip and walnut meringue recipe - if I have time this week I'll post it... they're almost all gone!
TODAY’S TIP: back to breaking up... if you two are calling time then why not have a cooling off period instead of finishing for good?
Maybe with a little bit of time apart, some 'thinking-space' and trying to remember why you two love with each other originally might just work a little bit of magic.
I'd be rich if I had a £1 for every couple who told me six months after a breakup they wished they'd worked a little bit harder at saving things.
The grass out there isn't necessarily greener!
Think hard and good luck, Pam x
