60th Birthday Celebrations.

Hiya 👋

You okay?

Hope you’ve had a super week, have you had good weather? We’ve had it a bit hotter and somewhat humid so on Friday night we had one almighty storm! We turned the lights off and watched the lightening light up the sky as if it was daytime! The claps of thunder signed it was right above us at times but fortunately we didn’t have too much rain so no danger of flooding. Of course by the next morning apart from a few puddles there was no sign of anything happening!

I went to a party on Saturday night. It was my best friends’s 60th celebrations and she had an enchanting garden party complete with pretty flowers and fairy lights. 

It was a lovely evening chatting with old friends and finding new ones - the ones you feel you already know because you’ve heard so much about them! We dancing ate and drank until the early hours and succumbed to the tired feelings that enveloped us all catching a taxi at 1 am! Wow what a way to celebrate your 60th but I needed the slow day on Sunday to recoup and get back to normal!

Always there to share good and bad times with a friendship that has never wained!

I wore this maxi dress but should have taken a little jacket with me as the wind didn’t retreat in the afternoon and made it seem so much colder. The food was delicious, I took a homemade pâté which went down really well - I’ve got some orders in for Christmas already! 😂

Good morning everyone. 

How’s your world going?

It’s been another fab week especially after a really good weekend. You remember I told you about the darts competition on Saturday night, well what I didn’t tell you was that my daughter announced she’d got engaged! I’m thrilled for her and can’t wait to get planning another wedding, although I’m not sure when that will be as they’ve got to buy somewhere to live as well! She’s got a beautiful ruby and diamond halo ring that’s stunning and her fiancée picked a beauty!

On Sunday, David and I were invited to a venue in London for a dinner show. All I can say right now is that it was a brilliant night, with exceptional food and some delicious champagne - which is now my favourite drink! You’ll be the first to know when the post goes live as I can’t wait to share it with you! I wore my vivid pink midi dress from JD Williams and felt really confident in it. 

Let me share a birthday present with you today. My sister bought me these trousers and I loved pairing them with this old fine knit top from Phase Eight.

Darts Competition with a Shit Shirt!

Morning, or I should say evening!

Another later post. 

I’ve had a really busy weekend and didn’t have any time to blog!

On Saturday I spent most of the day in the garden as the weather was being kind. We cut both front and back grass, I strimmed the back garden and David trimmed the hedge with me collecting the spoil. We’ve got three full bins and two big builders bags and plan to get a skip to get rid of it all! We have our own skip company, so that won’t be expensive. I love seeing the garden all trimmed and clipped although there’s still more hedge to work on but at least we’ve made a start. 

On Saturday night we had a family darts competition. We’ve all been enjoying Thursday Night Darts, so much so we’ve all had dart boards installed. It’s been so much fun planning the evening over the past few weeks. Em and Dan really did a fantastic job, complete with banners, rules and winning cups. We had to get a shit Tee shirt, think of a name and also think of a walk on tune - can you guess what my choice was? (Here’s a clue - Wham) find out below!

Come with me to Amiens - Chic & Stylish Linkup.

Morning my friends. 

How’s June going for you?

I’ve had a busy few weeks, culminating in a run of trips away to France and Cornwall. Today I’ll share my two night stay in Amiens when I shared an AirBnb with David and four friends. 

The weather has been nice over the past few days and it’s been lovely to venture out without a jacket! I got back to the gym on Monday and felt great doing it. I’m starting to see the difference since losing over a stone on the Keto diet and my fitness journey is going even better than normal as exercises seem to be slightly easier weighing less!

May Review.

Hello there. 

Thanks for stopping by. 

Just back from my trip to Cornwall with my mum and sister. We went to visit my uncle who lives there and we stayed in the delightful hotel Pencubitt in Liskeard. I’ll share what I got up to soon but today it’s all about what I got up to in May. It’s time for the …

May Review. 

It’s been a busy couple of weeks and I’m hoping for a bit of a break now. I’ll get my post about both Cornwall and Amiens ready for you soon but until then please accept today’s post in stead. 

I started off the month with a super stylish pair of wide leg linen blend trousers and love the look. I’ve even bagged another similar white pair from Vinted and will share them soon.
