The Adventures of Lakshmi: September 2009
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Thursday, September 03, 2009. The company I keep. Really starting to wonder if it is indeed me, not them. Was talking to a couple of friends the other day about cars - hardly my area of expertise, as demonstrated by the ineptitude displayed during the GM years - and threw out the observation that if I could have any car in the world, I'd like an Aston Martin DB9. To which, one friend said, 'But the insurance on an Aston Martin would be so high.'. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

The Adventures of Lakshmi: December 2009
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Saturday, December 12, 2009. Everyone in the office had chips at lunchtime yesterday - I snoozed and lost on that front so stopped in a troublingly spelled establishment called Flavas on the way home to make it up to myself. Offered the choice of a sauce to go with my order of chips, I went with mayonnaise - at which point the guy behind the counter looked at me pointedly and said 'you'll get fat if you eat mayonnaise'. Irony, it appears, is wasted on the ironic.

The Adventures of Lakshmi: March 2009
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Thursday, March 05, 2009. It's that time of the month. The flat downstairs appears to be ready and on the market - and cheaper than ours for some reason we haven't yet worked out. In addition, our annual rent review is apparently coming up in April, which Gareth has hinted might have some impact on whether we continue in the flat or not. As we're now in the sixth month I've been in this flat, the ominous timing (and potential implications) of these revelations has not escaped me.

The Adventures of Lakshmi: July 2009
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Monday, July 13, 2009. Although often content to leave mysteries well enough alone (I've seen the films, I know what happens to girls who go nosing around business that isn't their own), somehow I couldn't bring myself to leave this one unsolved. So I took the envelope down to the post-office and put the problem to the lady behind the counter. To which I replied, incensed and justifiably so I feel, 'I don't know, THAT'S WHAT I JUST ASKED YOU'. When our boots they hit the ground.

The Adventures of Lakshmi: Food for thought
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009/11/food-for-thought.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Thursday, November 19, 2009. Why aren't bananas classified as 'tropical' fruits? They're grown in tropical climes aren't they? Or are they so classified? If so, why has this information been kept from me for so long? And why do banana flavoured products taste nothing like real bananas? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Adventures of Lakshmi: Head like a hole
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009/05/head-like-hole.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Tuesday, May 12, 2009. Head like a hole. I have a bump on my head that hurts when I prod it. Putting aside the question of whether the key here is not to prod it, the important thing is that I don't remember bumping my head. But maybe that's because the bump erased part of my short-term memory. I believe I have reached what the French call an impasse. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Adventures of Lakshmi: February 2009
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Friday, February 27, 2009. Forgot to mention my first decent celebrity spot since my London period began:. Guy Ritchie swigging beer at The Punchbowl in Mayfair. Some might say seeing a celeb at a pub they own is no real achievement. These people should keep their unwanted opinions to themselves. What a busy last few weeks it has been. When your wishlist veers away from shoes, entertainment and frivolity to furniture and homewares? Wednesday, February 04, 2009. An unexpectedly ...

The Adventures of Lakshmi: Seriously?

The Adventures of Lakshmi. Thursday, November 20, 2008. While I know I have a varied, diverse and generally interesting personality, I thought a list of my material purchases from the last week or so might provide Lakshmi-novices with valuable insight into just what they're getting for their money:. Brown leather Coccinelle handbag (was on sale, how could I say no? Disturbed's latest album (annihilation will be unavoidable). 11 PG Wodehouse books (10 Penguin edition, 1 Vintage).

The Adventures of Lakshmi: April 2009
http://theadventuresoflakshmi.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Lakshmi. Thursday, April 02, 2009. My father just called to ask me where I went to University. I'm really starting to worry about those two. Wednesday, April 01, 2009. The other day my mother called to ask if I was in the office. Honestly, I have no idea what she thinks I do for a living. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). The charming and talented Marc Lewis.
