In an effort to spice up this blog, my flatmate suggested I create a column called 'random sh** of the day'. While I think this would be an excellent idea, I fear that creating such a thing may actually completely overwhelm and overrun this blog given the weirdness that is London.

RRP £35thanksIn true Rove style, all I can say is 'WHAT THE?'! I'm looking to sell my phone for cash, not to inherit some random pair of oversized shoes, a worn winter jumper and a computer hard drive adapter - that's right it's a hard drive adapter, not even a hard drive. What's the world coming to?
