Time Flys By
I really don't know where the time has gone since I went on holiday - it seems I have constant distractions that have disrupted my usual robmacca Blog posts. Namely its MySpace as my new toy and a certain website that has provided me with hours of entertainment, but I won't go into that!

Geri and Victoria News
Geri and Victoria spent plenty of time together recently ice skating in London with their children during the Christmas period. This has raised questions about Victoria being pregnant with her fourth child and Geri reportedly told Closer magazine:
"I think she's definitely expecting again," she said. "She hasn't been feeling well, has practically stopped drinking and has been really broody."
Geri was pictured in the press recently clothes shopping for baby Madonna Bluebell in London's West End, a newspaper dubbed her Geri Spenditwell,after it claimed she spent thousands of pounds on baby clothes.
Victoria snippets
Meanwhile Victoria is never out of the media eye and has been said to be hurt by Liz Hurley's "nasty comments" about her weight and the way she conducts herself. The Beckhams have apparently been struck off Liz's March wedding list.
Victoria has turned down the chance to buy Michael Jackson's Neverland ranch because it is 3 hours drive for David to get to the LA Galaxy football club. The Beckhams were also known to be looking around the former $15m home of Lionel Richie.
Let's hope Victoria doesn't hurt her toes while she's doing her house hunting because her toes are worth $10m as she lend her name to a line of handbags and shoes to be sold in exclusive boutiques across the US.

Lets Talk Sport
Andy Murray (left), holds the hopes for British tennis fans as he plays in the Australian Open tomorrow against Rafael Nadal at the Rod Laver Stadium in Melbourne (oh yes, I've been there watching other British playes Tim Henmen and Greg Rusedski). Andy is yet to drop a set but this will be his toughest game yet as this is the first time he has been up against Nadal.
I'm not even going to mention the cricket........................
Media Whore and Random Thoughts
As you might be able to tell - I've been rather distracted from my normal blogging habits this week. I've had a "Media Whore" week as I set up MySpace and set about helping my housemate set up his and taking photo's for him. But I got him to take a few of me as I relaxed around the house and you can see the results here:
I really should get back to blogging as it keeps me in touch with whats happening news wise and saves me from talking endlessly on MSN. Apart from being a media whore, I'm enjoying my life so much this year. Regular blog readers will know I went through a tough month in November - but I can proudly say it's helped shaped my life in a positive way. My housemate commented this weekend saying:
"I can honestly say that since your low patch in November, you've really bounced back and are back up there enjoying life"
Indeed robmacca is back and 2007 is already proving to be the best start for many years - I am another year older and I feel good about who I am and about my body. I used to write myself off as being "too old" or "not good enough" but now I have a fresh vibrant spirit and have been putting it to good use!
I wish I could blog all the deepest things that are going on right now in my life - but I know my blog is read by a lot of people, and some things are best kept private!
Next week I'll be away in London so will find it hard to blog while I'm away, but I may just set up my mobile to blog pictures while I'm away........
Thanks to YOU, my supportive friends who helped me get through the "down" spell (getting calls and texts from around the world really had a positive impact!). Hope your 2007 has got off to a good start and you get all you wish for.

The Monkey Is Back!
PG Tips said the woollen puppet's inclusion in the advert followed the success of its long-running chimps commercials.
In the new adverts, comedian Vegas plays the dim-witted Al alongside Monkey, who is voiced by comedian Ben Miller.
ITV Digital's popular Monkey campaign first hit screens in 2001 when the cuddly toy starred in a series of ads with Vegas.
The woolly mascot emerged as one of the pay-TV operator's most valuable assets after its collapse nearly five years ago.
A custody battle over Monkey then ensued between administrators Deloitte & Touche and London-based ad agency Mother which created him.
Monkey went on to feature in the BBC's Comic Relief charity campaign.
Now watch an interview with them and see the advert for yourself:
The Beatles: Mr Postman
So click the video for a bit of true Brit pop, that was around before even I was born!

Emma Bunton Wants Spice Girls Reunion
Now the singer has been encouraged by the success of the recent Take That reunion, which saw the boy band shoot straight to the top of the charts.
Emma said: "I speak to all the girls and there have been rumours about us reforming.
"We're all doing different things and some of the girls are mums, so priorities have changed. But I would love to do something with the Spice Girls again."
"I know we will have an amazing time," Emma said. "I would love to look to the side of the stage and see the girls there. But it would be a one-off gig for charity rather than a full scale tour."
Emma is now working as a solo artist and recently released her album Life In Mono.
The record includes Emma's recent Children In Need single, Downtown, and followed her stint on the TV show Strictly Come Dancing.

Beckham Tops "Best Dressed" Glamour List
Mel B Hounded by Murphy Fans
Melanie Brown (Scary Spice) has been put under 24-hour police protection after being hounded by obsessed Eddie Murphy fans.The former Spice Girl, who split up from the comedy star last month, is facing daily abuse from a group of fans camped outside her LA home, according to The Sun.
Although she spent last week living with her parents in Britain she has recently returned to her besieged house.A friend of the star told The Sun:
"She is extremely lonely in LA, and her life is being made intolerable by Eddie's fans camped outside."
They shout insults and give her abuse all the time. The police have decided to place an officer outside to keep an eye on things. She was living with Eddie before all this happened and spent her time with him - now she's all alone.
"She can't understand why he hasn't even bothered to phone and explain what's going on. Mel is incredibly hurt by it."

Drunken Postie!
At work, this poor hung over postie felt so tired they found a quiet spot in the building and went to sleep on the floor for about an hour – the cheek of it – getting paid to sleep!

Posh: Food Issues
The Sun reported today that Victoria Beckham admitted that she has "food issues" as she said:
"Every now and then of course I go out and eat what I like."
But she added: "But I do try to be quite disciplined in the way that I eat."
Victoria, who as The Sun revealed yesterday caused a scene at a Toby Carvery by demanding more turkey breast meat is often accused of not eating anything. The poor woman can't win - if she wants more food, The Sun reports it. If she eats healthily and is skinny, then she is pictured around the world as having an eating disorder!
Geri's Dog Banned From Gym
Geri at a recent premier in London
Poor Geri Halliwell has quit her Kensington local LA Fitness centre because they have banned her dog from being at her side while she exercised.
Apparently Harry was tied up next to her on the treadmill but as she worked out and the machine made a noise - he began to bark and yelp as he got more and more disturbed. This led to other gym customers to complain and Geri was told it was her or the dog that had to go!
So the front door called and Geri left the gym..................
Geri, if your reading this - I said in my last blog story I was looking for a gym partner if you fancy it!
