Glass buildings, high heels and the tube
I primarily created this blog so that I could add comments to another blog . However, I can see that this could be quite good fun and possibly quite addictive too (but more creative than playing spider solitaire - difficult level I might add).
"Why citybitch?" I hear you cry. I have noticed myself becoming increasingly more bitchy in the last 4 years and I blame this directly on the City of London where I have been working and commuting to since October 2000.
I still live in a village (quite a large village, but nonetheless with it's fair share of mud, horsey people and a crap bus service) but I believe day by day I am becoming more corrupted by the fast-living of the city. I have to admit that I love it though.
When I first started going up to London I would gesture for people to board trains before me, chat and give money to homeless people and I didn't care particularly about mine or other people's appearance. Now, I look into middle distance whilst digging elbow to get on the tube, ignore rough sleepers and have to get up earlier every morning to paste on make-up. Yesterday I made a conscious decision to be more "businessy" (which I am hoping is mainly going to involve a new wardrobe) in the attempt to forward my career.
Anyhoo, this blog could be a chance to network with other citybitches and get tips, to bitch / rave about the city but mainly to document my journey into citybitchdom.
Let me know what you think.

Here's an example of citybitch boots to be going on with.

Am really pleased you have come to your senses - firstly in being a city bitch and secondly combining this with blogging.
I am very sure that the two will go hand in hand really well.
And don't forget ... take a camera with you, wherever you go.

Thanks 3 têtes and DrJoolz for such a warm welcome to blogging and to CB-dom. I hope we continue to cross paths in the course of our learning journeys.
