I almost forgot to say.... welcome to my new website! I hope you like it :)
Its been a total nightmare from start to finish. I see now why they say 'don't mix business with pleasure'. It was a guy I knew briefly socially, that designed it, and my current web-designer put it together. It's caused me so much stress, and distress for the past 5 months I seriously feel in need of a holiday :-/
But it's here now, and I love it! And I want to thank Mick, my current web guy who is an absolute star for finally making this site happen despite the various obstacles and for being very patient with me during my numerous teary phone calls :)

Escort blog - Sunday roasts
I did my second Sunday roast yesterday! I absolutely love cooking and cook all sorts of things. I love to experiment and try and copy meals I've had at the fabulous restaurants I go to, but roasts have never interested me. Firstly you need a real bunch of people to make it really worth while, then if it goes horribly wrong (as there's so many thing to think about and getting the timings right etc) that it's fraught with potential dangers to be a total disaster so I've always avoided it.
My Mum has mastered the art of managing to juggle cooking a roast for 15 people whilst managing to stay composed, socialize whilst the guests have arrived and cooking, without it fazing her. This she assures me is practice, so I guess I've got a loooooog way to go! Lol
I had a work date Saturday night so I managed to make a desert Friday, then prep loads of the food Saturday day. By the time Sunday came and I was back at home I thought I had it all under control until 2 of my friends came and my Mum. They all chipped in and helped, and I realized how much there was left to do!
Half an hour later 2 more friends came and everyone had to wait an hour for the food to be ready. It was those damn roast potatoes not roasting!
As kids we would all take the piss out of our Mum for saying dinner was at one then it not being ready until 3pm, and now I realize how difficult it is.
Anyway it worked, my lamb was lovely and pink (except I didn't have a carving knife, and cerated knives I was told just tear the meat... ooops) the potatoes eventually roasted, and the gravy was pretty damn good if I don't say so myself.
So maybe I should try and do one at least once a month :)

Escort blog - My first post!
Well what to say??? I have finally succumbed to the world of blogging, after lots of nagging from my dear friend, the gorgeous Miss Dolly Mopp. Through my postings I hope to give you an insight to my personality, my deepest thoughts and maybe even my darkest secrets (if you're lucky ;-) . I imagine I'll also be having a moan and getting things off my chest, when the need arises too!
I have to confess I've never been much of a writer. I can talk for England and I am very animated and engaging in person, but I don't feel that my fun, open personality comes across when I write. I sound far too serious sometimes. I hope to change this with a bit of practice, through the art of blogging!
That is all for now folks, and I promise to write very soon with a juicy little tit bit for you, something insightful and interesting, but do bear with me while I get to grips with blogging.
