byker, byker, byker, grove yeah! ahha ahha ahha.....

cant sleep so thought id inform you of what ive been up to! had a nice few days in sunderland and newcastle. did a bit of walking, some sightseeing and visited quite a few shops (especially the metro centre!)! not sure what was wrong with me but i didnt find anything i liked in topshop *shock gasp* but i saw lots of shoes that i wanted in schuh (oh dear!). maybe my conscience is finally kicking in and my purse strings are tightening?! one thing i did still love about being up north was the geordie accent! mmm! hehe! too many chavs but if you closed your eyes they all sounded great!

came home today. had a very smooth journey - caught the train at newcastle, when i got to derby the next one was waiting, then the same happened in leicester and when i walked from hinckley station to get the bus that was also waiting! not bad eh?! i was then supposed to blitz my room cos it was a tip ready for michelle to stay for the night, instead i got distracted on the internet and ended up piling everything into boxes and putting them in mum n dads room (they're still up north) ready to sort tomorrow!

had a really nice time with michelle, a good old fashioned sleepover although shes asleep upstairs while im wide awake at 5am! doh! off to lufbra again tomorrow to meet up with some more peep ive not seen yet, then ive gotta get ready for my birthday! yaya! it feels like ive waited aages to be 21 but at last ive made it (well i will have on sunday!) woohoo! hehe.

right better go and try and sleep i guess

nighty night

T-minus 6months / 184days!

Image
Eeep! 6months today I'll be just about to walk down the aisle to see the man I'm going to marry! AAAAARRRRGGGHHH!I'm so ridiculously excited I'm not sure I can bottle it up! Valentines day marked 200 days till our wedding & mum made us a countdown using tape measures measuring 100cm each. The plan was to cut off a cm each day as the countdown but she'd included little charms all down them of bags, shoes, guitars, etc & we didn't want to ruin it so we're colouring it in with a Sharpie instead! She's the best! :) thanks mum! Last night after work Adam & I met up at Waterloo to head home & it was all going as planned till we stopped at one station for about 20mins cos of a backlog due to a part suspension. There was nothing we could do to get on another line so we sat & waited, the train eventually left but then sat at the next station (Swiss Cottage) for another 20min & they didn't know when they'd set off again. We knew th...

Happy 30th Adam!

Image
Wow what an eventful weekend! Friday was Adam's 30th so we both took the day off work to celebrate together. After sleeping in till 10am Adam finally woke me up asking when I was going to emerge & celebrate his birthday with him - Yoink! So much for the breakfast in bed I had planned. We started the day off as all birthdays should be celebrated - with a trip to Asda! After getting the boring chores out the way we headed to Winter Wonderland (via the Barber) for our annual wander around with a mulled wine in one hand & a Bratwurst in the other all polished off with a pretzel. We stopped off at the Carousel bar to watch the world go by (literally! The whole bar rotates really slowly) & have another mulled wine while putting the world to rights before heading off for dinner in Hammersmith. The first of many surprises for Adam were tickets to Steve Merchant's 'Hello Ladies' tour at the Apollo which was really good fun. We got there quite early so thought we...

#TowerPoppies

Image
Last September I was lucky enough to get the chance to take part in the "Blood Swept Lands & Seas of Red" at the Tower of London.... Those of you who are regular readers will know I love helping out the Royal British Legion & this was a chance to be part of something awesome! "Blood Swept Lands & Seas of Red" was to mark the centenary of the outbreak of WW1, in total there were 888,246 ceramic poppies (1 to represent every British / Colonial serviceman killed) & the last one was planted on Remembrance Day. If you want to find out more & see a video about the poppies being made click HERE . Early one Saturday morning I set off to the Tower of London & joined another 120 people for a 3hour shift. The aim was to plant 5000 poppies to keep on track for the 11th November but someone ended up opening an extra palette & we planted 6000 instead! Our team was lead by a Beefeater's daughter who actually lived in the Tower - such an in...
