Hi, guys!

Yo
u
’re so brilliant reading this and i
t
’s really cheered me up, as Fred is being a bit of a toad at the moment – not that h
e
’s covered with warts and is shooting poison out of his neck (but give him time). Sometimes I feel that yo
u
’re my only friend, especially when Flor
a
’s at orchestra practice. So please, please, do me a ginormous favour and visit my fabulous, dazzling, low
-
calorie, high
-
energy website –www.JessJordan.co.uk!!!!

I
’m going to be blogging away (I wrote glogging by accident at first and I kind of like it, so I might be glogging too) and I can promise you loads of laughs, polls, quizzes, interactive stuff, downloadable goodies, plus sensational secrets that Fred, Flora, Ben, Mackenzie and Jodie have begged me to never reveal! Do
n
’t tell them I sent you – and promise yo
u
’ll be there!

Love,

Jess

Jess Jordan’s Top Tips for How to Survive When Disaster Strikes

If you tend to suffer from wardrobe malfunctions, always take a spare wardrobe with you. (Except on the bus – that would be rude.)

If yo
u
’re cornered by someone boring, try saying,
‘
Sorry, I feel a bit sick
!
’ Then run off, gagging.

If your mum is dating and she brings home an unsuitable boyfriend, ask him to build you a tree house. This usually gets rid of them, especially if you have
n
’t got a tree.

If your pants really are on fire, put them out by sitting in the bath.

If your best friend falls for the same boy that you fancy, ignore both of them for the next twenty years.
