#101

I got home from Turkey at about half four yesterday morning, slept like a baby and then went to stay in Jack's, so I've not had much time to read through everyone's posts I've missed. I'm currently sat on my bed eating grapes and yoghurt, watching Geordie Shore (don't judge me, I love car-crash tv!) so I'll spend tomorrow morning commenting and the like :)
I'll leave you with a few photos but will do a more indepth post tomorrow for those who are interested :) Hope you're all well!

#100



It arrived! :D I'm so happy I nearly hugged the courior man! I can't stop smiling, I feel so smug.
Couldn't think of a better time to post my 100th post either, today is so good. Thanks to everyone who crossed their fingers for me, think it worked!
Now I'm off to pack my suitcase and carry on bag, shower then go to Jack's and give him the amazing news ^_^

This is probably gonna be my last post til I come home on the 28th, but I look forward to catching up on everyone's posts when I'm back :)

Week in Photos

I'm cheating slightly as some of these photos are from the week before I was in Cornwall, just haven't had the chance to share them, doubt you'll mind!


- Playing round with my mum's camera, being vain. it makes me look quite red though, dunno how to use the different settings


- Went with Heather & Danni for a Nandos before Cornwall; medium chicken wings, garlic bread and Peri Peri chips, nom!


- We found a Heather-sized cash machine on the way to BaaBar!


- Last week's Graze box, all so nice think I demolished it that night. Use code C3MVH3H for a free trial box and your second half price


- The ring and bracelet I treated myself to in Perranport. The bracelet's quite long so when it drags across my arm I freak thinking it's a spider or a bug :/


- More empty products for my Project 10 Pan thing, I think I've gone over 10 items by now, but I'll just keep going, doing pretty well


- Our friend Donna moved to London so we went for a farewell meal to Big Bowl Noodle on Berry St, the guys in there know us cos we can't stop going! We all had Satay chicken w/ fried rice, yummy!
If you live in Liverpool please check it out, it's cheap, they do student discount and the portions are huge, I'm not joking!


- Hope's bosom was flashing in Hannah's Bar later that night...


- The gorgeous flowers in our front garden, haven't a clue what they're called but I like'em :)


- One of many cups of tea since being home. This mug is so cool, it's got a lid to keep it at the perfect temperature


- The Body Shop products I purchased using the Groupon voucher I got aaages ago - paid £12 for £30 worth of products. I used it on the very last day as I'd forgotten about it, oops!
I'm very happy with what I got and will do any reviews if you would like?


I'm currently flitting between tidying the house & packing my suitcase in the hopes my passport arrives in time for Turkey on Monday!
I had my interview, but my dad had to drive me to Blackburn as Liverpool's office had no free dates, typical for me! But I rang earlier and the man said it had been printed s should arrive over the weekend, I really hope it does as I'd be devastated if I couldn't go :( Fingers crossed you guys!

Are you going abroad this year? Anywhere nice? :)

#98

So I'm back from Cornwall, relucantly as I just did not want to come home. I missed my friends/family, but I just wanted to stay away from my usual life a little while longer :(
Hopefully we'll be going back later this year, maybe in August with some friends to chill for a week or so. The drive there and back was nowhere near as bad as last time, as Jack drove us two with the dog in the back, and despite a minor hiccup at the start, with us ending up in Huyton after following his dad's car twin he did really well and I'm very proud of him considering it was his first proper drive :)
The weather was abit hit and miss, it was sunny everyday, but five out of seven days the wind was really strong, so it cancelled out the sun as it was pretty cold. But the last day was gorgeous, and we spent everyday on the beach with Jack and his brother surfing, he taught me how to skimboard, and I caught the littlest tan ever :') Spent Tuesday pottering round Newquay which was nice. Not much has changed round Perranporth but I think that's one of the reasons we love it so much, it's like our home from home; there's still the same waitress in Pickwicks, the same shop owners from years ago, the only things that have changed really is shop signs and a new cafe called The Cove which is really nice, worth checking out if you're ever round there.
We didn't take any photos this year due to the unpredictable weather, and whenever it was sunny we had forgotten to pack the camera just incase, ah well!



This is the only photo I got, on my phone hence the bad quality of the sunset from the second day. In reality it was a gorgeous deep orange that filled the sky, my photo doesn't do it justice but you get the jist.


I'm hoping to get back on track this week with my posts, mabe throw a few new regulars in the mix, see what you all think? Tomorrow I'll do a quick Week in photos from before I left.

Are any of you going on holiday? If so, where? :)
I'm supposed to be sunning it up next week in Bodrum, Turkey with my best friends, but my passport has been a nightmare, it's taken about five months so far and it's still not sorted!
So if anyone in Liverpool either works in or knows someone who works in the Passport Office in town, help me out please, I need it! :D

Short hiatus

Hey guys, just a quick post to say although I've been slacking on the posts the last couple of weeks, I won't be posting anything this coming week as I am going to Cornwall tomorrow morning for a well deserved break! :) I'm really excited to go, but first I have to pop to Wigan tonight and see Jack's last match for a little while.

Hope you all enjoy this gorgeous heat while it lasts, see you next Saturday! :)
