The importance of mobile phones is paramount as shall be illustrated in this short tale. When I was fifteen years old, my friends and I went to an abominable dive in Neasden which had the audacity to categorise itself as a ‘nightclub’. Plagued with perverted weird men, sticky floors, watered down bootleg alcohol, and terrible music, it was the last place on earth you’d want to be unless you were too young to get in anywhere else.

Two and a half hours into the night and my friend who was always the drunken liability of our youth had disappeared. Not too anxious as she was usually to be found asleep in a cubicle, I only looked for her half an hour later. She was not to be found however, and she had left all her belongings in the cloakroom, including her money, travel card, and keys. Then panic commenced as she was very drunk when last seen and had left all means of going anywhere in the cloakroom. The police had to be called and were her parents! If only she had gone to Three.co.uk/store and bought herself a phone!

Red is a colour that has often been appropriated by various political movements. Pre-dating Europe’s 1848 Revolutions, red was a colour utilized by European Revolutions, often in the form of a red flag. During the Italian Risorgimento, red was used by Garibaldi’s red shirts and by other Leftist and generally quite revolutionary groups whilst the conservative legitimist Bourbon partisans became affiliated with the colour white. The reason for red’s association with left-wing revolutionary movements is because it related to the concept of the ‘Blood of the workers’ which refers to the suffering of the working classes. This is no more manifest than in Russia’s Civil War and Finland’s, in which the opposing sides were the red army and various white armies.

Communism became identified with, not led gu10 bulbs, but with red. Communist China was distinguished from Nationalist China as ‘Red China’ whilst the latter was ‘Blue China’. Under Mao Zedong, the de-facto anthem was “The East Is Red”. In Germany, left wing paramilitary groups were grouped under the label, the Red Army Faction.

I can be pretty impulsive, but I pride myself on knowing when enough is enough. Some people obviously can't do that though, as I saw from those eBay items I was watching. I'm pretty sure people paid nearly high store original prices for some of the cute dresses and shoes I had my on. What's the point in buying second hand for practically the same price?!

I'm proud that I didn't get sucked into ridiculous bidding wars, and it's probably good that I saved the money because I might be forking out for a flashy new water dispenser for home.

I drink a lot of water and since moving into my new place I've noticed just how scaly it is here, so I wouldn't mind paying for a hot and cold water dispenser system.

I'm searching online for decent priced water purifier uk now, I want to get a good idea of prices before I pick one.

I'm supposed to be working, and I am working, I'm not a huge slacker, but I've got loads of amazing eBay finds that are all going to end this afternoon so I keep flicking between my work and my eBay page. I hope nobody's noticed!

I'm watching an amazing pair of Vivienne Westwood shoes which are hopefully going to go for really cheap because they're second hand and last season, and so far nobody's tried to outbid me! I'm not silly though, I'm going to have my eye on them right up until the final seconds just in case someone tries to get in there and nab them!

I've also found some really cute dresses that'll be good for winter with thick tights or leggings and boots. I like the look of a couple of coats as well, but it's hard to choose a coat without trying it on or really seeing it in person! What to do!

I love animals, I always have since I was really young. They've always fascinated me and I hate seeing all the sad animal charity adverts on tv, they're so heartbreaking

Sometimes I feel like I'm doing the wrong thing and should just give up the job I'm doing now and look for animal sanctuary or farm jobs instead, and just work with animals all day. My dream is to work hard and earn lots of money in my current career for a number of years, and then move out to the sticks and open my own rescue centre.

I'd love to look after chickens rescued from battery farms, rescued dairy cows, pigs, turkeys, sheep, any rescued slaughterhouse animals, any farm animals, cats, dogs, anything and everything! All welcome!

Hopefully one day I can do it, I feel like my life would be complete!
