Dya wanna be in my gang, my gang, my gang?!


Oh yeah! I really did feel like the leader last night. Rfa & i had a wedding to go to in preston & we went only knowing each other but ended up leaving knowing most & them knowing us!

The ceremony was lovely & really small. Ian looked very dapper & jo looked stunning. I almost blubbed a few times especially when they played 'all i ask of you' from phantom when signing the register!

By the time we sat down to eat i'd already had 2 glasses of champagne & a pint of ale so was well on the way to being merry. So merry infact i was given a chicken ceaser salad & ate it all! Lettuce & tomato, the lot! The rest of the meal was lovely too & the speeches equally as good. :-) ian can be soppy when he wants!

We had a short breather while they got the reception room ready & the hog roast set up, yes more food! The disco then got going & we ended up writing pretty much the whole the djs playlist!

Everyone got up & had a boogie to macarena, saturday night, ymca, the lot! Then tragedy came on! I shrieked & started to do the full on dance routine (bear in mind id had another 2 pints of ale, another champagne & 3 glasses of white wine). It was all going fine until i realised there was a big circle of people around me copying my moves & i was in the middle! By this point it was too late to escape so i just jazzed it up & had a ruddy good time!

Earlier in the night i had spotted someone wearing one of my shirts from next. After a while one of the ushers called me over & introduced me to the guy as the girl who'd designed his shirt. He was amazed & i ended up having a photo with him! Was quite nice being a celebrity for a bit!!

After alot more dancing and another pint & a half of ale followed by 2 cokes it was time to call it a night, well after popping to the hotel bar with a few others for a night cap!

Today was a bit more subdued & those people from the wedding party who were still around headed to a pub round the corner for lunch & a natter. It was quite nice to have something to do the day after & we could all nurse our sore heads together! Some people choosing the hair of the dog, others, the wimps, including me had coke!

Im now on the bus back to london about to sleep to make the journey go quicker. Wish they had the sleeper bus option like in india! You could count me in!

Well that was wedding number 2 of the year. 2 down 2 to go!

Xxx

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...
