Loving the poncho
Hey babes, Have started my first week as a researcher. Its awesome! People think that slavery was abolished in the 1830s but in TV we're still enslaving runners. But reading your blog makes my job sound incredibly dull and shit - did I mention I work with Gordon Ramsay? Girls Aloud have been in, Dawn French, Dom Jolly, but you still make it feel dull. I love ya honey, cant wait to see you. Enjoy the rest of your trip x
