Stolen Ice Cream - REWARD

We were walking along Weymouth beach (yes me, on a beach, sand between my toes & everything, impressive huh?!) when there was a sudden flap of wings & before we knew it Adam's hand which was only minutes before clutching a 99 ice cream was empty. Not even a crumb left! The last we saw of said ice cream was in the beak of a sneaky (among other names I can't type on here) seagull a it flew off. The look on our faces must have been brilliant & the people around us were just s shocked as we were! Once I'd recovered from giggling so much we went straight back to the stall to get another one, this time it was a wonder Adam didn't get brain freeze from the speed he ate this one making sure he got every last crumb.
 
I took loads of photos on our afternoon trip to the seaside but this is my fave & makes me giggle every time I see it & I felt it deserved a post of it's own!

Our long weekend was really busy & didn't feel long at all! It was full of crappy traffic, a pretty farmyard wedding, camping, fish&chips at the seaside, first football match of the season (already?! *groan!*), getting our banns certificate, glorious sunshine, crappy thunderstorms, a small birthday gathering & quite a lot of ale! Phew! At least I've got tomorrow off cos it's a certain Miss P's birthday! Woop!

Whaha I can't believe that really happened! I was at the beach as well this weekend, but fortunately no bird stole our BBQ-food ;)

That's exactly what happened to Klara when she was a little kid, she has hated seagulls ever since. When my mum went to buy her another one the ice cream van man told her a similar thing happened to a woman with Chips, but they all flew at her and she fell into the harbor! Anna x

Who knew the seaside was so dangerous?! Knew there was a reason why I don't like the beach! x

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...
