just a spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down......

mum and dad came back today so i had to make sure that all my rubbish was actually cleared away ready for their arrival! i really wanted julie andrews to turn up and help me with the cleaning by clicking her fingers and everything clearing itself! good old mary poppins, i love that film! but alas she was no where in sight so i had to do it all myself! chuh! i can actually see my carpet, first time since being back!! oops! sorted out all my photos ready to put them into albums too. i hadnt realised quite HOW many i had! i knew it was alot! :-S i've edited the pile so that itll only fill about 100 volumes now! :-P (bet everyone reading this cant wait to meet up with me when ive finished them! :-S) hehe!

had a good night last night in lufbra again. met up with lizzibeth, becky, laura, amiee (lauras mate) and paul. it rained really badly but we still trudged our way round the bars looking like drowned rats all the same! i was the only one to have brought an umbrella with me but didnt actually get to use it during the night, it was too crowded to fit under it!! cos it was a-level results its was quite a busy night and they were doing alot of ID'ing, not suprised though, some of the guys looked about 12! stayed out till 2am then visited marios!! bleugh! i couldnt face anything! liz, paul and i wandered back to the house, put steve coogan on the video and chatted untill 4:30am when paul left! got up today and got the bus back to compare tain timings and price with the bus. train takes 30min with 1 change, is £3.90 but you also have to walk to hinckly bus stop and pay £1.40 to get to barwell. the bus on the other hand takes 2hours with one stop and costs £3.80 and drops me in barwell. hmm tough choice!

got claire and anna coming over tomorrow, really looking forward to it, not seen them since they left bangalore in feb. lots to catch up on. its also barwell carnival! ace! lets hope the weather holds out!

right really tired now so gonna sleep, 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...
