i dont like infinity!

its true! i really dont! this is mainly cos of the fact that i keep getting confused over the saying:

IT WOULD TAKE AN INFINITE NUMBER OF MONKEYS AND TYPEWRITERS FOR AN INFINITE AMMOUNT OF TIME TO CREATE THE ENTIRE WORKS OF SHAKESPEAR.
(still not sure if thats right!!)
i dont know why it confuses me but it really does! ive heard it loads of times before and not really thought much of it untill i heard it on the ricky gervais podcast and (the wonder that is...) karl pilkington got muddled up about it and in turn confused me! so while having a conversation with rfa and mattay on the matter i just decided that i dont like infinity. so thats another phrase now i can just ignore and it will hopefully go away!
another thing we've been discussing in depth is (we were bored ok?!) why do people shake hands?!?! ive recently found out that its cos it goes back to the olden days (dont all things like this?!) and when we used to fight with swords. when we shake hands we shake with our fighting hand and so shows that we are unarmed (not sure what happens with left handed people but ill forget that problem and that one will go away too!!). another thing we were wondering is why shake hands with dogs?! they must think we are really weird with the whole tradition, they look confused when you do it! im pretty sure that its not to check if they are unarmed (unless youre shaking hands with dogtanian and the muskehounds!!).
well those paragraphs show a little insight into my mind! scary isnt it?!?!
since my last blog (aaaages ago) ive moved back home with mum and dad for easter. i moved back on sunday but went back to lufbra during the day on monday, rfa came back to mine on monday night for the use of the hottub (!!), drove rfa back on tues, picked mum up from school that afternoon, caught the train back to lufbra that evening to stop the night with mattay and rfa, then finally came back to see mum and dad wed night, so today is my 1st full day back home properly!! confusing but hey! i should be around from now though for the full 3-4weeks.
although im on holiday i dont really feel like i am cos ive got a table loom from uni! so eventhough its a time to rest i can still weave! (:-S) hmmm! its ok ive just started threading it up this morning, will hopefully start weaving soon, the whole 8yards of it! argh! at least this is my last term of weaving, after i graduate in june/july thatll be it. dont get me wrong, i really enjoy it but id like a break from it really!
thats about it for now, better get back to threading up my loom before neighbours starts!!

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...
