I won't send roses....

Image
though I will take you to a beautiful flower market & let you have the pick of the bunch.  Adam got me up bright and early (never knew 7am existed on a Sunday) & took me to Columbia Road Flower Market. It was lovely having a potter around & as well as flowers we ended up leaving with a new 'P' light. Yay for London days out! Ttfn x

"Only you could rock fried egg & penguins"....

Image
I went out last night & thought I'd blend into the background so I donned my trusty fried egg clip (thanks Lou.....courtesy of Luna on the Moon - check out their Etsy shop HERE ). I had lots of compliments & I think my favourite comment was....."only you could rock fried egg & penguins!"  Ttfn x

Give it a break!

Image
Well tomorrow marks the start of lent...this year I'm giving up these bad boy lunches & bad food snacking. Eek! Probably best to avoid me each day around 3/4pm I'll probably be hangry & say something I regret! Roll on Easter! Ttfn x

Let's do this!

Image
I keep feeling really motivated & ready & raring to go when I think of everything that needs doing & what's coming up....then I sit there in my onsie....on the sofa....with a cuppa & my iPad & suddenly I'm not so motivated! Yoink! Ttfn x

Brighton Baby!

Image
Finally! A chance to explore Brighton properly - better late than never (just like this post - we only went in September!). It was as awesome as everyone had told me it would be. We even left with a new friend.... He now guards the front door along with our gold  Pug from Shoreditch....as you do! We'd stayed the night before in our first AirBnB place & it was great - see HERE . It was a lovely studio room at the bottom of the hosts' garden, we had tea/coffee facilities (as well as a few spiders!) in the room & fresh fruit & a jug of milk in the cool box outside in the morning. It was really peaceful & only a 20min (30min max) walk into Brighton itself. Perfick! Ttfn x

Think about your perfect Monday morning....

Image
I've been sat outside my house for 25min, with my keys, unable to open the front door cos there's a key in the lock on the other side, waiting for a locksmith, about to be £80 (+ VAT) worse off.... Living the dream! Ttfn x

From Borehamwood to Hollywood: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Elstree

Image
We moved into our new place almost a year ago now & we had no idea how cool the place is & the film history that surrounds it. 2014 was the Centenary of Filmmaking & Television Production in Elstree & Borehamwood & to celebrate, a group of awesome people called The Elstree Project made a film called "From Borehamwood to Hollywood: The Rise and Fall and Rise of Elstree." It's a fascinating film which starts at the very beginning (without sounding too Julie Andrews!) & ends with current films & tv shows that are still being made today. There are 2 ways you can watch: 1. Grab a cuppa, get yourself comfortable & watch the link HERE 2. If you're ever in the area they're planning on showing the film at regular times at the library at No 96 in Borehamwood. The first showing is this Sunday (8th Feb) 2pm - so get down there quick - tickets are first come first served! After the showing we went to there was a Q&A session with:

Plumpton!

Image
I've always wanted to go to Plumpton seeing as that was my maiden name & finally, even though that's no longer my name I made it! I found these photos squirreled away in my drafts folder (along with a load of others I'll be posting over the next few weeks - bet you can't wait!) Poor Adam....every time we went past a new sign / place name we had to stop for a Kodak moment! Brill! Ttfn x

Walking in a winter wonderland.

Image
Finally we've had some snow! It took a while reaching us & wasn't that deep but at 6:30am this morning it sure looked pretty. Ttfn x
