"Jibby - Sara 's got her number back" could Marilyn be thinking.. if she would still be alive that is - because then she and I would be "like this" - after I would have written her memories - with her consent of course. Excuuuuse me but I think I have...
So Benazir Bhutto has been assasinated. Did she get too close to her own people? Perhaps it was bound to happen. A woman fighting for democracy in a muslim country who already escaped attacks two months ago when she returned from exile and where 140 of...
A clear winner from tonight's debate. Will this be France's new president? She proved tonight that she has what it takes - and that she knows what she is talking about. If only the French would have the odacity and the courage to vote for someone that...
On france24.com you can watch the channel in english and in french but you can also read blogs by our presenters inside the newsroom . They vary as they are many. Some have an interesting outlook on the news agenda - others just repeat what they have...
on flickr ... I haven't forgotten you.. my little blog It's just that it takes its toll to live with another party animal.. My life these days can be summed up in 10 sentences: 1. Work is better - with new shifts only working days and evenings. 2. I have...
"Do what you like" No I'm not going talk about how thin french women are, how they do it with their pouty mouth or discuss their dating habits, which, according to some british media (!), are not good enough . I read an article a long time ago saying...
When the dog bites, when the bee stings.. when I'm feeling sad. Ithink about a few of my favourite things and then I dont feel so bad. Cosmopolitans without a straw satin bows Sand between my fingers music with violins cherrytree flowers the tinkling...

May I introduce you to the "ferlíki"! I've Finally got internet at home! Its like seeing again. Idefinately agree with the articles I've read recently about more andmore people being hooked on the net and using it like a drug. Wish Iwasn't one of them......
BEYOND THE NEWS Another advert for France 24.. slightly better than the football kid(which I really didn't like and that's why I haven't put a link here..don't worry.. you didn't miss anything spectacular). This one however is.. hmmm.. well intriguing...
Sarkozy hasn't spoken publicly for almost a week. What is going on? Radio commentators I heard this morning wondered what could cause this - now especially in the time of social crisis in France - the transport strike enters its 6th day and no meeting...
Im not dead, and I haven't stopped blogging.. but yes, being a double mom takes alot of time, but I knew that. When the little one, does not need to eat, burp, gulp or be helped to sleep, the big one wants to play, eat, show you something or just have...
Let me say it again. 0.35%. That doesn't sound like a big probability. Well that is the number of pregnancies in France that suffer from a problem in the 3rd trimester called Cholestasis. A rather rare liver abnormality that if left untreated can be hazardous...
Oh ...I was looking so much forward to it -it had been such a long time since we had met and the point of the trip was more exciting than ever. Instead it became a total bommer journey from A to Z. I took my old friend betty bike to go to the swimming...
We had our third and final compulsory scanning yesterday. At 32 weeks of pregnancy. This time we did it at the hospital where I will give birth which I have to say is much better equipped than the place we use to go to before. The Midwife that performed...
Only a few days left until I find my freedom again! Until I loose it to motherhood that is :) But that's not a problem. I just can't wait to walk down the street and not worry if these cramps that Im feeling are normal or something actually to worry about....
Its official and now scientifically proven: Women's brain stop functioning normally during pregnancy but - wait for it- in the long run having a child does boosts female brain power! That is great news. And its not all. Men also become kinder and and...
The neverending topic. Especially when you are pregnant, you have a child and it wont breastfeed,then you get pregnant again and number two loves it! You talk about it to your mother, to your grandmothers, to your mother-in-laws, then your friends who...
I want to blog. Problem is when you take a break for so long, you dont know how to come back. but you have to start somewhere. What about saying that baby number two is on its way. Yes, we dont waiste time in this family. Due to pregnancy problems Im...

There are moments when you should be proud of yourself. When you get a better grade than expected in an exam or when you're offered the job when you thought the interview went so bad. And then there is the crucial moment at the monthly check-up at the...
So I was going to say "Sunshine for this weekend", a "delicious dessert" or some other useless fashion item but actually no, I would like to talk a little bit about things I learned listening to the radio today. It happens once in a while that I tune...

The news keep telling us it's serious this time. The 2008 crisis was nothing in comparison to the financial hurricane that is coming our way. We need to brace ourselves because its gonna hurt this time. Less jobs in the European Union (just what we needed),...
Planning should be my strong side. Having been in charge of a news program where every second counts I thought I was so meticulous and I remember we did have more than one perfect "tener" in the days (A perfect 10 minutes 00 seconds broadcast). It was...
