Sitting in the corner of my lounge are a set of three small tables. These could be referred to as &#8216;occasional tables.&#8217;
My question is this: If they&#8217;re occasional tables, what are they the rest of the time? Furthermore, if I have a set of three occasional tables, should I be using them for different occasions [...]]]></description>

		<title>Close The Bloody Door!</title>

Today I&#8217;m going to have a rant about something (or rather, &#8217;someone&#8217;) that really pisses me off…
The guy (or woman &#8211; this isn&#8217;t a gender-specific annoyance) who walks into a cafe on a cold day and leaves the door open. It only takes 2 seconds to close the door and save everyone from a chilling [...]]]></description>

Valentines Day is fast approaching &#8211; the time of year that florists and card shop owners rejoice, whilst the rest of us cringe with dread.
One wonders who hates Valentine&#8217;s Day more &#8211; the man trying to find something suitably romantic for his partner or the guy who receives nothing and ends the day unloved… and [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;ve all been there &#8211; the nervous first date. You meet up with your victim/date and sit down to chat over a coffee. But, after a while you&#8217;ve exhausted the regular questions like &#8220;so, what do you do for a living?&#8221; and &#8220;lovely weather, isn&#8217;t it?&#8221; There&#8217;s an awkward silence as you both reach for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Funny Slogans In Online Dating Profiles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		

Ok, I admit it, I&#8217;ve been dabbling in the world of online dating. It&#8217;s been an interesting and, occasionally, eye-opening experience.
Earlier today, I was looking through a few online dating profiles and the following irritating phrase came up several times:
&#8220;I&#8217;m a lil like marmite &#8211; you either love me or hate me.&#8221;
Ah, ok, so you&#8217;re [...]]]></description>

Having read the Timewaster Letters, by Robin Cooper (a brilliant book &#8211; do buy a copy), I have been inspired to write and send a few humorous letters of my own. These letters will form the Pointless Letters section of my website.
Before Christmas, I sent this letter to the Executive Director of WAZA &#8211; the [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Reason To Hate Snow</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
			
				
			
		
You know what? Snow reminds me of a distant Auntie&#8217;s visit on Christmas Day. Everything seems very pleasant and enjoyable for the first 5 minutes and the children enjoy playing with her. But then you realise that she hasn&#8217;t really brought anything nice with her. She then overstays her welcome, irritates you to the point [...]]]></description>

So, you&#8217;ve just finished watching the lunchtime news on the television. The economy continues to struggle, there are concerns about terrorists wearing explosive underpants and snow is on the way.

2009 will be remembered for a lot of events. The inauguration of the first black American President, the death of a pop icon; Michael Jackson, and the worldwide spread of an infectious contagion that originated from a porker… no, not swine flu. SuBo (Susan Boyle).
