Happy New Year to you all

It's been an amazing New Year so far for me. I had a wonderful evening at the theatre where I finally got to see Katherine Jenkins live. She was out of this world apart from a few tears at the beginning (she had just split up from her long term partner) she was able to carry on and give a great performance. My poor dog is getting fed up of the gruelling six miles I walk him most days, I now have to drag him out the house rather than him dragging me.

I had a great swim at the gym this morning beating my son by ten lengths so feeling very refreshed haha! Time for a Starbucks I think!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

It's that time of the year again so I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and a fantastic year ahead.

Thank you for the wonderful gifts especially to (SW) for the ipad2 (still lost for words)

I look forward to meeting you all next year!

This week

My new favourite cologne is pomegranate noir by Jo Malone. Sorry just had to tell you all that :-) Even though I love all her products this one has to be the best by far.

So, it's been a busy week for me, apart from work which we all (some of us anyway) have to do to pay for those who just can't be arsed to work! I had a lovely evening at the theatre where I saw "The barber of Seville" which was great fun and highly recommended.

Time now to write out all the Christmas cards while I'm in the mood, may even put the Christmas tree up!

Kill a cold

So it's that time of the year for the much appreciated (not!) cold.

BUT I have found a cure (honest!) "First Defence" is a micro nasal gel which targets those cold germs in the nasal cavity. Make sure you start using it as soon as you feel a cold coming on though. So it's not everyone's cup of tea shoving a gel like substance up their nose but trust me it does work! This now takes pride of place next to the lippy in my handbag :-)

The girlfriend

So my son has finally admitted to having a girlfriend which he would like me to meet. Great! He's not gay after all.

A quick run down of my son: Intelligent, well educated, 5'10, caramel complexion, a body to die for,(including six pack) a gym freak (spending up to five hours a day in the gym) a mauy tai fighter (that's kick boxing to you and me)

So the girlfriend walks in...Oh my Lord!

She's about 5'3, plump, long blonde fake hair extensions, fake eyelashes and make up that could only have been applied with a trowel.

So what did you think mum?

Choosing my words carefully as always ;-)

Shes short, fat and has the face of a geisha girl!

So now he's not talking to me and I don't know why?

photos

I have had a few requests to replace the black and white images for more colouful ones and as I always do what I'm told (not) this has now been done. There are some old favourites which were also requested (the bathrobe pic for LDS) so hopefully you will all be pleased by what little you can see :-) There will be more new photos to follow shortly.

Love to you all and stay safe on this windy day!

The weather

I know I've been working hard but did I miss the Summer?
