Geri Halliwell


Over the recent weeks we've seen fresh pictures of Melanie B, with her red hair and Melanie C with her European success. Now it's the turn of Geri Halliwell, she may have been written off by the British media following her last album but her true fans still love her no matter what.
The now pregnant Geri still looks stunningly beautiful as this "Hello" magazine picture shows. Not only is she looking better with her fuller figure, she looks so radiant with her pregnancy.
We don't know what the next career path holds for Ms Halliwell but, for now, we salute you Geri - you still look wonderful!

I'm No Cook!


Those that know me well - know I'm a product of modern society, when it comes to cooking. OK, truth be known................ I'm just plain lazy and want my meals ready to eat in less than 30 minutes.

But last night I was faced with the challenge of cooking for my friends Andy and Kelly, who wanted something a bit more than just pasta and processed chicken.

I was making a chicken korma with rice, nann bread and poppadom's. I managed to over cook the rice and so it went stodgy, while tending to that, I burnt 2 of the nann breads. On top of that I didn't buy any chutney to go with the poppadom's.
Thankfully the korma was really tasty with added mini tomatoes, cucumber and chopped carrots so it was worth experimenting.

Next time I'll know better, now where is my processed food?!

Just posting them on my Blog for a dear friend who has requested them.

Night out with strangers


-Almu and Benno from the Hospitality Club.

As well as going out with friends, it's always a pleasure to host visitors to my city. That's where the Hospitality Club (See link on the right) comes in so handy.

I got to host Almu from Spain and her boyfriend Benno from Germany (both are studying at Southampton) as they started their tour of the UK.

For me, it was a pleasure to have them stay at my house and take them out into Coventry for a meal and show them a good time pubbing/clubbing. Even though we'd never met before, by the next day it was as though we'd known each other for ages.

It goes to show we can use the internet for good and being an ambassador for my city helps me feel proud of my city and gives me great joy in being able to give something back to others.

The bible has this very interesting verse:

Hebrews 13:2 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society

"Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it."

Night out with friends





1. Kev and Kully get closer
2. Could it be love?
3. Paul and Nana become friends
4. The crew








I went out with some of my friends the other week -
Paul: who I've worked with for the past 10 years at Royal Mail.
Nana: Kev's girlfriend, who I've known for over 10 years.
Kev: worked together in the early 90's and stayed friends even though he lives in London.
Kully: worked along side Kev and I, still meet up once in a while for a great night out!

Time may pass but true friendships stand the test of time, as a recent night out with some of my best friends has shown. It was the first time Paul had met the other three but that didn't matter as all got on so well.
It was good to see my other close friends Andy and Kelly, who joined us later that evening.

For me, my friends mean so much because my parents are not around - I know I can rely on my friends in times of need. So a big shout out to those listed above and the many who are not mentioned but I really value.

Coventry City Football Club



Carrying on the theme of being proud to be from Coventry, I'm also proud of our football club. They were the 3rd longest club in the Premiership but sadly got relegated several years ago. It's easy to give up and die, but CCFC carried on their dreams and have opened the new Ricoh Arena. It's won the hearts and minds of the fans and it seems the club are going from strenght to strenght as they have just signed a new 5 year deal with Puma.

On top of that Michael Doyle is staying, even though he could have gone on a free transfer - now that shows faith in CCFC. Lets hope we finish in the top half of the table.

*From www.bbc.co.uk :
Coventry City midfielder Michael Doyle has signed a new two-year contract, with an option for a further year.
The 24-year-old could have left the Sky Blues on a Bosman free transfer this summer, and his decision to stay has delighted manager Micky Adams.
"It was no secret that I wanted to keep Michael at the club as he is an integral part of my plans," he said.
"There isn't a player in the league who can match him in terms of work-rate and at only 24, he has years ahead of him."
Doyle said: "It wasn't a hard decision to sign. We've shown this season we can compete with anyone at this level."

Deal or No Deal Game

It's 00:34 and I'm still up, OK so I got up at just before 20:00 and have been busy clearing out my old "Spice" room (it's all gone folks!). I've been distracted by the online version of "Deal or no Deal". If your a UK viewer of this nightly show (3.7m of you will know what I mean!) - then the game link above will have you hooked as well.

We Need A War!


We need a war in Britain for these reasons:

  1. Reduce Unemployment - after the war there would be a jobs boom as we rebuild the country.
  2. Higher Wages - the skills shortage will push up wages.
  3. Reduce Illegal Immigration - let's face it, who's going to come here with a war going on?!
  4. Exciting New Buildings - with the old one's gone, it can only get better!
  5. Community Relations - will improve as we all get closer in our time of crisis.
  6. National Pride - the nation will be proud again.
  7. Solve Housing Shortage - with thousands dead, houses will become available. Might even bring the prices down...........
  8. Reduce Pension Crisis - again, with thousands dying, it will reduce the pensions problem.
  9. Baby Boom - suddenly the nation will get horny and lots of babies will be born.
  10. Winner - finally Britain could win something for a change.

OK, I know this all sounds stupid - but I'd been thinking about some of the problems it would "solve" to go to war. This war would have to be fought either in Britain to add to the impact.

Girls Aloud at "Alien Autopsy" Premier.


How stunning do Kimberley Walsh and Cheryl Tweedy from Girls Aloud looked totally awesome as they arrived at London’s Leicester Square Odeon last night for the premier of "Alien Autopsy" starring Ant and Dec.

Great outfits and looking totally sexy, but then I'm a fan so I would say that but the picture above say's it all for me...............

I've won a competition!




Hello viewers,
Sorry for the lack of activity on here this week. I put it down to three nights in a row of late night social activity that required lots of alcohol. A process that will be repeated one last time tonight, just to make sure my bladder is being fully working and up to the challenge!
Even my "31 Things About robmacca" managed to fail its 31 day completion, but all is not lost - I've won a competition as the opening title kind of makes obvious!

It's not everyday I enter competitions, but it's about the first time I've actually won something.
You can see the caption above, yet better still - check out the website as it's full of funny cartoons and stories. They are drawn by the blogger himself (Bill) and I fully recommend popping over to the website now, plus while your there why not enter the competition to win a tee shirt!
