There must be a Spring Collection ad due soon. The Harpies in lemon cardigans. I'm guessing they'll be gambolling in fields, probably with a hamper and an open topped E-Type for Twiggy. And Erin will look like she's about to kick a lamb the whole time. I was right! Apart from the lemon cardigans and the E-type (though Twigs was in a 60s car of some kind). The Harpies have clearly established some sort of demonic psychic link with me. I will soon be playing Pooh sticks but looking like I'm not enjoying myself. Erin does an extremely haughty face from underneath a hat. I don't think she's too impressed at Myleene crashing the party, especially as she then romps around in her pants. Perhaps she's a Kym Marsh/Ryder fan.

speaking of which, M&S on the Kings Rd has just had new window displays... Ooh, my pal works in the Food Hall there! I do like their Dalek egg cups for £3.99. If you could perhaps ask why they seem to have stopped selling pasta salads with feta, basil and sun blushed tomatoes, I would be most grateful. I'm considering a boycott. I've had to resort to walking all the way to Waitrose up the road for lunch.

And why they no longer do veggie sushi - meaning nowhere in Sheffield sells the bloody stuff anymore.

Also on the M&S Dalek Range note, my mam's got me a kickass Dalek Easter Egg. Well it's actually pretty shit looking, as they can't really make the Dalek shape out of cardboard, but the little button you press to make say "EXTERMINATE" is kickass.

I know. But I am wearing very precarious shoes and every step I take must be carefully considered.
But I checked M + S today. The salads are back. Hurrah! I assume this was all your doing. Next, we tackle the sushi issue.

Veggie sushi - just like the fish stuff but with veggies and tofu and suchlike in the filling. Tres yummy.

But.. but.. surely that's not sushi....?!?!?
I can't cope with this. I think I need to go for a lie down.

Sushi means 'with rice', not 'raw fish'. I remember having a big argument with someone about this (I was adamant it nmeant raw fish). He was right, I was wrong. Possibly for the only time in my life.

This whole Myleene-Klass-replacing-one-of-the-M&S-models thing is hardly getting the same reception as Moira Stuart getting replaced. I would have thought there would be more outrage...
EDIT: Ooh - my 250th post and I'm Su Pollard!

I didn't realise they'd replaced one of them, and my heart sank when I read this. Sure enough, I've just been to the website to check and they've only fucking gone and got rid of the most beautiful one. Fucking cunts. Consider me outraged.

Hooray for YouTube! I like that they're being upfront about the fact that none of The Harpies eat anything, by filling the picnic hamper with an array of silk scarves. I don't mind Myleene's presence too much, although it does bring the exclusivity of the group down a notch or two. If Kerry Katona turns up in their autumn get together then something'll be lost.

Myleen's boobs are surely the stars of the new ads. I didn't even realise it was her until about the 3rd time I saw it, so entranced was I. I used to think Erin was quite cool but now someone needs to put spiders in one of her stupid hats.

While I doubt Digital Spy/The Daily Mail are particularly reliable sources, apparently Shilpa Shetty will be taking care of Autumn... bigbrother.digitalspy.co.uk/article/ds12315.html

According to today's Metro (admittedly not the most reliable source) Myleene is up the stick. Glamorous M and S maternity wear surely beckons.

It's true! She is with sproglet!
I read it... somewhere... aol.co.uk. But it has been confirmed by a spokesperson. So she won't be able parade around in her bra much longer.
Though her boobs will be getting even more distracting.

That's a rubbish time to get yourself full of baby, just as her career's taking off thanks to I'm A Celeb.
You Londoners are so lucky. I was there this weekend, and couldn't believe how much Harpy Action there was to be had, with all the billboards and tube posters. Lucky lucky people.

I hate to say it but the new TV ad makes it look like Myleene is the harpies' bitch. Why else do they make her run around in her underwear while they smile approvingly? The whole affair reeks of bullying, I'm sure Erin would have been ready to happy slap her at any moment.

Watching it again this evening (oh, I admit it; I can't stop watching), I couldn't help but notice that there is one brief moment when I think Erin is beautiful and non-harpy (http://youtube.com/watch?v=NsD9_GrvsMc - 31 seconds in).
After that she wears a bunch of cunty hats.

In Victora M&S we have a strange cardboard thing with Harpies on it, the printing is such that the girls all look like they have bad skin, and it makes Erin and Twiggy look as if they're the same height!

Slightly worrying dream last night. It involved me coming home to find a note from my Mum, saying that Twiggy had called to ask if I could go down Itchycoo Park with her and Myleene and Eminem (!!!), to drink cider and listen to the bands.
Madness. Although I like the idea of a pissed up Harpies Music Festival, but not with Eminem and without Erin and the others.
