NYE!

Extreme tanning must ensue. It would be downright rude not too.

I want to be that colour...
<----
... and I mean the colour of the dress, not the skin.

Too Soon?

Is it too soon to say that things might be looking up? Belfast and Schipol seem to be operational, and there is no snow forecast for N.I or Nl until Tuesday.

Please, please, please don't snow anymore. I cannot pull off 'recession-chic' hair.

Northern Irish Tanning

In preparation for my ('alleged') flight home on Monday, I am about to undergo some serious tanning. The reason for doing so are two-fold. Firstly, tanning is much more enjoyable than essay-writing, and I find the scent comforting. Secondly, I would surely be shunned by society if I returned as my normal pallid self. The last time the fair isle was confronted with my fair skin, we were calling the X Factor 'Pop Idol', and thought Gareth Gates would be an international success. And even then, my face was a pretty dark shade of beige (my neck, not so much). At least I am opting for some 'safe tanning', though I can't help but worry that in 20 years time scientists will discover that dying your skin the same beautiful colour as a Crunchy Nut Cornflake will be more dangerous than exposing it to the sun's rays. Sort of like the way my grandad started smoking so he wouldn't get TB, but ended up with pneumonia instead.
