Whenever I picture Anne, for some reason it's in a superwoman outfit.

You know, I don't know how but I can just about see where you are coming from.

You know, whenever you make me picture you in your mind you're still wearing your red jumpsuit.

You're both completely wrong, as I wear Ani Lorak's dress most days with the odd excursion into Maja Keuc's chainfest when the occasion demands

I'm off to Norwich again tomorrow, this time I'm going with my larger than life friend Katie for an X Factor audition. (She's auditioning, not me!!!) So she wanted me to come along and support her, I really hope it doesn't involve standing outside in the pouring rain, if it does then I'll leave her there to get on with it and hit the shops.

I went the Liverpool auditions last year, had us standing in pens for like 4/5 hours because they were running late, and the weather was hot and sunny and I ended up sunburnt down one side. we even got crap seats considering we were like one of the first to turn up

Great, like I need another reason why I no longer watch this crap.

Still, I'll be a good friend and stick with her, even though in my most honest opinion I'm not expecting her to do that well atall.

From all the accounts I've read, unless you're one of the "chosen ones" they treat you like cattle, humour you at first then cut you loose at the earliest opportunity no matter how good you are. As a friend I'd say the best advice you could give to her would be to get out while she can, but of course if she has her heart set on it then that's her call.

Just saw a little clip of the "crowds" in Norwich for the X Factor audition thingy, looked like there were only about 100, they got some half hearted persons to cross their forearms in usual style - no sign of Foxy from what I saw but it was a very short news clip!

Was half thinking of turning up there and finding her in the queue and shouting "ta daa!" - but one look at the sky this morning had me scurrying back to bed

Need sleep first, feel like I have been deprived of a good nights sleep for the past 3 weeks

Awww, there were definitely a few news cameras around from Look East but the less seen of me the better, I look like crap today TBH.

Yeah we joined the que at around 11 o'clock outside The Forum and my mate didn't get to sing until quarter to 1, it was a very long wait made even worse by the fact that she didn't get through so the whole thing was a huge waste of time, she then told me she doesn't even like the X Factor and didn't expect to do that well anyway.

Even so she was grateful that I came along to support her, that's the third time in 3 weeks I've been up to Norwich Anne and you still haven't spotted me.

Good luck for your results!

I remember when I was in 2nd year at Uni and rangers were in the uefa cup final in Manchester. I had an exam on in the morning. I did enough until I know I'd got a pass then left to head down! Thankfully a pass was all i needed as it was second year

That's scary!

A 16 year old was stabbed by a gang in broad daylight just 20 yards away from my house at the end of March, he survived although there has been no indication on whether it was an unprovoked attack or not, pretty scary if it was unprovoked because it very well could have been me.

Exactly.

I was with the little one. I just picked him up and moved in the opposite direction. Felt guilty afterwards as there were people hurt but instinct just took over

I don't blame you, especially when you have a youngster with you. I'd do the same thing myself, I'd be too horrified to stop and help, the most I'd do is call an ambulance. I hope that doesn't make me sound selfish but I'm certainly no good when it comes to blood, I cut two of my fingers with a knife a couple of months ago whilst slicing a baguette at work, even though the cuts were tiny I felt light headed.

Yeah, I'm a bit of a wimp aren't I?

No chance! I'm not allowed to anyway because I'm on HRT.

Also forgot to mention I had a dream last night in that I married Weedy, he really really liked me but he was too old so I got a divorce. He retaliated by sending snipers after me, one of which eventually killed me and it turns out the one that killed me was Weedy himself.

Foxy - ever feel that you're taking too many hormones?! that's a horrific dream! I could imagine it of wombat, but not weedy

Saw the longer bit of the XF thingy in Norwich on Anglia News, was your friend shown at all? I didn't pay any attention to those on camera though, was too busy scanning the crowds

No you won't see us, we both steered well clear of the camera. There wasn't many of us there though, I wouldn't be surprised if the total was less than 100 TBH. Some of the other auditionees weren't half annoying though.

Thank you I need it, I think I have done enough to pass though. Failed last year, so decided to resit the entire year (more debt, but another year of being a student ).

In the accounting exam I done last year I only managed 10% . The questions were so similar this year and I found it much easier, really mustn't have revised at all last year.

I wish my team Newcastle coincided a cup final with my exams . It does now mean I can watch pointless tv, eat crap, watch last few days of football and give eurovision my full attention for nearly 3 weeks...then its back to working life

Why would you want to spend even more of your life studying?!

I wasn't thinking of that aspect, more the student life aspect. I started nursery at 2 though and now at 22 im still in education, so I know nothing else
