You should dump someone at least once in your life Katie....it's very empowering....makes you feel for a few moments that you are in control of your life and emotions, before collapsing into a tearful wreck on the sofa with a box of Kleanex, bottle of Chardonnay and a Brigit Jones DVD.

Empowering? Really?? I always came away feeling like I was a complete bastard, even though I was generally doing the right thing and calling a halt to something that was absolutely doomed anyway.

What Loz said. Dumping someone is never easy and can sometimes be quite painful and embarrassing. In the past I have often become very unreliable in a relationship that clearly wasn't working so that eventually they dump me. It's a lot easier that way and they may feel they've got one over you. But they haven't. But only you know that.
Unreliability can be hurtful too but it does kind of give clues. If a relationship is right then it's easy. Too many people hang on in relationships that are going nowhere or doomed and then wonder why they get dumped. You just have to be honest with yourself and never think you can't feel that way about someone else.

Oh that's where it went. Can I have my alarm clock back now please?

Well it could have been worse. She could have quoted Bono: "A woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle".


Count yourself lucky.


(And before anyone says it, I know that was originally Irina Dunn, not Bono, but I was just trying to keep the popstar continuity going....)

I was once dumped for turning 30. By a fellow I didn't realize I was dating. He said it was moving too fast, and that my ticking biological clock was now a gong. He was scared that we would be shopping for furniture soon.


He ended by saying "It's not you, it's me".


Uh, thanks for clearing that up, freak!


He then married and knocked up the next girl he dated within the year.

    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.  
    • BIAB is supposed to be less damaging to the nails than Shellac. It stands for Builder in a Bottle. 
    • I have been training at the hub for just over one year. I really enjoy the variety of training offered and the quality of the instructors. Very effective group classes and enjoyable in the open air! A very welcoming place which makes a fitmess journey pleasant!  
    • We're are just about to get ready for sale, a 2 bed flat, very close to Peckham Rye park.  It has been rented out for sometime, so is in need of some TLC for it to look its best, before it goes on the market.  Would be interested to know others thoughts on whether its best to just have the place painted completely white throughout, probably with new grey flooring, or if it might be more appealing to add some colour/interest (nothing too drastic), perhaps something alittle 'warmer', with some nice (potentially dark) feature walls maybe? Wondered whether the days of going completely white might now have passed ..... It might be useful to know that its not a period or conversion property, but rather a flat in a private purpose built block.
