Britain’s Got Talent… Oh, Wait, That Appears to be France.

7 May

Okay, so apparently Britain’s Got Talent are now accepting applications from people who need translators to apply. So, he was vaguely talented. But he doesn’t even go here. This is an outrage. Ant and Dec definitely feel the same way – you can tell by the sarcastic smirk on their faces when they asked if he’d come over just to apply. I’m only shocked that Michael McIntyre didn’t say anything. I know he took the mic out of the translator, but that was all? Really? Shocking behaviour. Definitely confirmation of the fixed outcome of the programme, and thus the reason I will desist talking about such rubbish.

I have done a LOT of shopping this week, and my favourite item so far is my brand new French Connection maxi dress – £50 from Asos.com. All I can say is amazing. I love maxi dresses, not only because they hide a multitude of sins, but because they make me feel like an absolute goddess – and goddess I am not. Usually I would be slightly reluctant about spending as much money on something as plain. On this occasion, I am so glad I did. Okay, so £50 might not seem that much, but I am supposed to be a penniless student (dresses like this are probably why). It is so soft, and it is so flattering and I actually don’t think I want to take it off. Definitely my fail safe dress for the  summer.

I have a busy few weeks ahead. Last essay due in this Wednesday. Exam the following Thursday. Then Rob Brydon baby! Off to the BBC recording studio in Teddington to watch the filming of the Rob Brydon Show. Excited is not the word! No news on who the guests will be, but in the last series he had Alice Cooper, Tom Jones and Stephen Fry so I’ll be keeping my fingers crossed for somebody awesome.

Today I discovered Michael Eavis once came to my house. It was at some point before Glastonbury last year and I have only just found out. As a journalism student, it is beyond me why people do not tell me these things. I have been getting excited about the festival again, this time channelling my attentions into Wellington boots. I have decided I am going to treat myself to some Hunters – possibly after my wages have gone in. Still trying to decide on the colour. I’ve narrowed it down to jewel green, violet, pillarbox, cobalt, and aubergine. I’m also very tempted by the navy Huntress. Updates to follow, but if anybody has read this far and would like to make a suggestion I would very much appreciate it.  Answers on a postcard please. Failing that, the comments section below would be just as good.
