BlueCat Yep she went from a kind of WTF. Attitude to saying she understood my reasoning, doesn't like tattoos but understands why I want the one I want. Just need to make a appointment now, hopefully for this week.

BlueCat That's kind of my thought too - if someone decides they don't like me because I have a tattoo that's their problem, not mine. But then gain, my whole family hate tattoos so there is probably going to be trouble from my parents when I get one - even though I'm...

Recently I have been thinking about having a tatoo. I would like to have a small and discrete design, like a star, or a word but I haven't seen something that I really really like. I know that it is going to be permanent and I...

BlueCat I think I'd try to dissuade her Actually - or encourage her to think about it for a very long time. I'm a very different person now I'm in my forties to how I was when I was 18. If I'd got a tattoo then it would probably have been for a band or something I'd...

I was talking to a friend recently who was pleased because she had taken another step towards achieving her five year plan. I'm pleased for her, but it did make me feel rather lacking as I don't manage to plan beyond the end of...

BlueCat One more thing - rather than have a plan I do have a list of things I want to learn and experience, places I want to visit etc. the idea was to work through the list of 101 things in 1001 days - I won't get everything done but it does give me ideas to work...

BlueCat I guess it depends how you define success. In business i enjoy what I do (most of the time) and I get good feedback from my customers so in that wy yes, I am successful. But when it comes to actually earning enough to pay the bills I'm not quite there yet! I...

BlueCat The wisdom of youth (or lack of it!) I guess part of me would love to just take off with no plans and see what happens. Another part of me would have everything planned to the nth degree!

BlueCat I am interested as to why you consider you were "blessed" to have no gap year. For me it was a very important time - I grew up a whole lot during my gap year, and I experienced things I don't think I'd have done if I'd not taken a break from education.

I've been rather cut off from the world these last few weeks and not really keeping an eye on world news. Yesterday though one of my colleagues bought a newspaper and I have just been idly flicking through it whilst I ate my...

BlueCat He's still little. Littler than the other cat anyway! And he alternates between making me swear (when he knocks stuff on the floor) and smile (like now - he's finishing off the milk in my cereal bowl!)

BlueCat Many of the supermarkets in the UK let you use the coupons even if you're not actually buying the product - which means it's always worth cutting them out and keeping them to save a few more pennies off your non-branded shopping.

I try to get my son to bed about 8pm on a school night and whenever (within reason) on fri and sat night, what time do you put your child to bed? I find it really hard to get into a routine and get back into that rouine after a...

BlueCat I've always thought it's quite important to have a routine with young children - I found that having tea, bath and a story at the same time let my children know that bedtime was coming up so they didn't make a fuss when it actually happened - not most nights,...

Now, I am in the house, so hot, and just doing nothing except typing. lol. But, if my sister replaces me in the computer seat I find myself sitting on a chair guarding our store. Take note: it's summer, the roof is metallic, it's...

BlueCat When I'm bored I come up with ideas for stories and novels. I've got a whole library of books in my head, just waiting to be written.
