notes from the birthday girl 2!

MY FUNKY CANDLES
had a really nice birthday yesterday. went into work and got some lovely flowers from jane, then realised i didnt have a vase so went into hammersmith at lunch with some birthday money and got a vase! (good job i did cos i then got 2 more bunches of flowers later on!). finsihed work and went into the city in my wonder woman boots! got so many funny looks it was brill! i was trying so hard not to laugh as i walked along watching peoples reactions! theyre worse than they were in lufbra! people actually stop to point, stare and laugh!! met up with emhen (plus balloon!) and i went to tatty devine to pick my name necklace. woot woot! gotta wait 7/10days tho! noooo!


CHEESY CHOPS! (with my tree in a drink!!)
went to covent garden for cocktails and even more cocktails! then had a meal at fire and stone (i think it was called!) and had a bombay pizza. it was ace. then as we were chatting the waiter brought out a chocloate brownie with my name in candles on the top. it was so cool! really nice surprise! my cocktails of the evening were mojitos and daiquiris. i swapped to daiquiris when i got fed up of picking bits of tree (well mint!) out of my teeth! mmm attractive! we ended up in TGIFs for a final cocktail and had a huge bowl of a cocktail (£7s worth!) it was brill! had such a nice evening with emhen, she made it really special and we had a proper giggle and caught up on lots of stuff. eventhough we've both been around its felt like aaages since i last had a chat with her and i really enjoyed it. :-) cheers chicken!

FLOWERS - obviously! (felt grown up cos i got flowers for my bday!)
got to bed about 1:30am then was in the gym for 7am! you proud of me?! i am! hehe. aiming for the same thing 2moz!

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...
