I have guilty pleasures

Hello! So when I was pregnant with my son who has just turned 12 I would watch TOWIE because it took my mind off my indigestion. Now it is watching Cliff Richard in concert and watching Jo and Stacey on BBC One.

It is good to watch others live their lives and it is addictive TV. 


I think with my dad it was Eastenders, even though, I feel if he was alive he'd say no, but it is the reality of #TV and at one time for me would be watching "Say Yes To the Dress" and the Kardashians. 

It is good to when the kids are in bed to watch a bit of music that your friends and family don't know about. Okay I am not talking about Porn, just in case someone thinks that, that is something that is totally different, but is something that is not what many of who, would know you. My husband loves the Traitors yet he normally be critical about that kind of TV as neither of us watch Big Brother and for me I like Celebrity Race Across the World. 

It doesn't have to be TV. It could be a type of food or drink, as long as you are wise about it and for me that is, having a Baileys and a Malibu and Coke. 

I am not a heavy drinker but like a bit of alcohol at the weekend. 

It could be a song. Mine is Dollar Mirror Mirror. 

A certain place to eat or a sport. 

Even a film or clothing. 

Many it can be smoking and drugs, which can mean that something more serious going on and that these can lead to addictions. Yet my Grandad loved his Tobacco and was never willing to give it up and my dad and mum smoked.

There was a time I did smoke out of curiosity but I didn't get any pleasure from it. 

Your Guilty Pleasure can be books, like romance novels or biographies. 

I remember in friends the comedy where Joey finds a book of Rachel's and there is nothing wrong with a bit of romance. I love love songs and still listen to Buck Fizz. Many may not admit that they love cheesy music but a bit of pop did no harm to anyone.

Life is to be live and so have a guilty pleasure, as long as it won't do you or anyone, any harm. 

Many thanks for reading,


Carrie X
