the lufbra lass returns

just come back from a really nice weekend in lufbra. it was so weird being back and seeing everyone living together in lufbra and me not living there any more. not sure i liked it! feel like im missing out on all the fun. london's great but it'll never be AKs 127 (if you get my drift!)
thursday evening i met up with dave and we went to see motion city soundtrack. the gig was pretty cool and to make it even better okgo were supporting them (check out their music video involving treadmills on my myspace!). i couldnt believe how expensive the drinks at the astoria were tho. i ordered a southern comfort and coke and a lager and it came to £9.80! shocking!
SCARY RFA!

friday i had a day off and went to lufbra in the afternoon. all the regulars were there plus quite a few randoms! we eventually ended up going out about 11pm and headed to rocknight at 'chos. trouble was that it was freshers week and so the metal/ska/punk room had been turned into a dance room - grrr! so we sat in the main room for a bit (we had to sit cos i couldnt actually walk on the floor it was so slippery with all the spilt drinks and stuff!) yuck!


YES THE MUSIC REALLY WAS THAT LOUD!
the music was so loud that we figured out that if we sat with out fingers in our ears and spoke to each other we could hear ourselves and the music better than if we sat normally!


CATALOGUE POSES!
the second night we went for a meal to the thai (aiiiii) grand and then to the orange tree and wild. id missed the orange tree so so much, need to find a pub like that here!


THE GALS IN ORANGE TREE.



WHAT'S RFAS FAVOURITE KIND OF BEES?! (answers on a postcard!)

i had such a lovely time in lufbra seeing everyone, cheers for coming people. really appreciated it. :0) not long till ill be back (next week in fact! ;0))

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...
