Men fill up their heads and drawers and sheds with stuff from their teenage years.

Indeed, 'Sex and the City' highlighted the importance of female friendships, and showed the world that it was hip to be single.

Facebook, I'm learning, is like a man. You have to be smiley and fun and witty but sometimes you have to play it cool and just ignore it for a couple of hours.

When you're down and have just split up from your partner everyone says you have to move forward. 'Get on with your life,' 'It's time to meet someone new,' and 'Don't think about the past' are phrases you'll hear for at least six months after the horrible event.

The only question a girl can ask herself when their husband chooses to see '27 Dresses' is this: What on earth has he done?

There is no film on the face of this earth that is as blatant a girl's film as '27 Dresses.'

A dark room with some low-level whale music and a flat bed and a woman pulling your shoulder back and forth is a happy place.

Even when my mum used to edit the paper she would come home, put us to bed and then go back to the office. She must have been exhausted. She worked on Sunday papers so I always had her on Mondays. I loved Mondays! She would always be waiting for me outside school. I remember feeling very loved.

You've never met anyone who likes Christmas more than me. I go quite Liberace. My kids have all got stick-on antlers.

My kids are the offspring of people who are doing reasonably well and live in the centre of London and the chances are they're going to turn out ghastly anyway. Who's to say they shouldn't have a walk-in wardrobe and possibly a stylist from the age of four?

It's deep in the south of India and next to Goa, but thankfully the folk who like Goa haven't worked out that Kerala is a lot nicer and just next door. You do feel that you are discovering somewhere entirely new in Kerala. It makes you feel like you are on a totally different planet.

The reason why those female celebrities are always in filthy moods is not because they're being hounded by men with massive cameras or because Ridley Scott cancelled their film. They just want to get their hands on a cheeseburger.
