21st Century Lord Byron.


So for the past week I've been drinking in Chipping Norton pubs with my mums family and messing up the settings on my camera.

I went to an old friends funeral, which was horrible. He was an awesome, awesome guy and it fucking sucks that he's gone.

I've been looking after my cat, who has a broken jaw and a messed up eye. She was missing for two days until my brother found her wedged between a shed and a wall. The vet said someone either hit her with a car or kicked her, and she had probably gone away to die. Props to the two cats who spent a day trying to alert my mum as to her whereabouts. To the person who almost killed Daveycat and has left her too scared to go outside, if I ever find out who you are I will break into your house at night and put arsenic in your milk.


Lovely bloggy Tanya gave me some friends and family discount vouchers for New Look (THANKYOU AGAIN!) so I made an attempt to brighten my mood and bought some cheery red trews. I wore them with my nerdy book jersey, a poor mans cravat, a tartan jacket in a nod to heritage and a tuxedo jacket. I have a tendency to eat too many trends at once and vomit them out in an incoherent sartorial jumble. Oli said I looked like a dandy writer. 21st Century Lord Byron chic is my new go-to look.


Tuxedo jacket - charity shop, tartan jacket - Peacocks, blouse - Internacionale, book top - Romwe, shit cravat - mummy dearest, bag - gift from Jenny, trousers - New Look.

On a lighter note, Oli and I spent more time that we should have smearing shaving foam on our faces and doing impressions of the moon. Help is needed.


Over and out!

  3. Aw poor Daveycat :( I hope she's alright - someone ran our kitten Toby over when he was about 6 months old, he had to stay in a cage for 6 weeks >_< I am always SO cautious when driving in residential areas in fear of crazy cats - though I did stop for a baby squirrel the other week and the driver opposite definitely laughed at me....
