After the excitement of the photo shoot on Monday night, I went out with Mark from work on Tuesday night to see two of his friends from the time he was working on Trisha. We all compared notes about working on Jeremy Kyle verses working on Trisha.
Then the girls went to see the band they wanted to see and we went inside to watch the Liverpool Arsenal Match. I surprised Mark by talking to football fans about the match and cheering frantically when a goal was scored with 34 seconds to go before they went into extra time.
Then we walked down to The Green and had some more drinks... soon we were chatting away about all sorts and having a great time.
Then we went onto shots. I had 4 tequila shots and Mark had 4 shots of sambuca. For some reason, we got a bit lively and loud.
After that we wanted over to The Eddie, but the drink kicked in and we got very drunk very fast. We were too drunk to be in a pub so we left and headed to the bus stop.
I got the bus to Finsbury Park and then another bus up the road to Manor House.
I barged in the door and found Chris. From what he says, I turned into a limpet and hugged him for hours while telling him I loved him before passing out on the sofa with him in my arms.
I managed to wake up at 5am and make it to bed. Chris followed.
When I woke up at 8.30am I felt a bit rough but managed to pull myself together enough to get in the bath and get to work.
Mark arrived about ten minutes after me and we managed to make it through the day...
So now it's Friday and we've all made it through the week. It's been a gloriously sunny week and Chris has decided that the roof garden is his new project. Hopefully, with all the cuttings, trimming and seed planting that he's doing, we'll have the hanging gardens of Manor House before long.
I think it might be summer. Lovely.

My Attitude Magazine Naked Photo Shoot
I'd agreed to be a model for Attitude Magazine's naked issue. I thought it was a good idea at the time - but that was weeks ago. Suddenly, the day was upon us...
So I didn't eat anything after breakfast, just in case I didn't match up to the other guys I'd imagined were going to turn up to the 'Attitude Magazine's Naked Issue' photo shoot.
By lunchtime I wanted to eat my desk and computer in one go - and I was imagining that I'd be the fat, ugly one in a room full of toned, tanned stunners.
Carrie Bradshaw's neurotic nature had nothing on me by 2pm in the afternoon. By 4pm I was dangerous to know - but I looked FABULOUS.
But by 6pm I'd given in to my fate and I left the office to make the short journey down High Holborn to the photo studio where my fate would be sealed.
I pressed the buzzer and asked for Mark or Matthew Todd - and I announced that Matthew Christian was here. I mean - how is a boy meant to announce that he's here to get his cock out on camera?
To my surprise, the voice over the intercom sounded very pleased to hear that I'd arrived.
So up them there stairs I went. Unsure of what awaited me, but with hope in my heart and a happy place in my pants I walked through the door.
What awaited me? Men in pants. Young men in pants. Gulp! But wait, there was more... Alongside the young men in pants there was also a camera and a room full of all kinds of men - of all ages. Joy to the world - I was one of many.
After spending so long being so nervous, I soon relaxed and started to have a laugh with some of the other guys in the room. Although - I have to admit, the guys who were laughing the most were all over 30 and obviously didn't care too much about whether they had perfect abs or pecs. They were there to have a laugh - as was I. And that made them so much more attractive as a result.
I soon discovered how hard it is to make eye contact with naked men in their 20's while their being photographed - but then it was the 30-something's turn. That meant me.
Eduardo couldn't wait. Everything came off. But then we got told to keep our clothes on as we were going to be working our way down to the money shot.
Clothes went back on and the smiles came out. And do you know what? It was fun. We had a laugh.
Slowly, but surely, the clothes came off and all I remember is thinking was; 'What would Tyra say right now?'
To see quite how well, you'll have to pick up a copy of next month's issue of Attitude Magazine.
Because you're worth it. Enjoy.
