London Birthday Weekend....

Good time? You Judge....


Mexican restaurant where we had to wear Sombrero's the Drink was called hot lips and yes my arms are tied behind my back!


I had to pick it up in my mouth and down it in one - its a mixture of bananna liquor, tia maria and cream - when you throw your head back the cream blocks the drink till the alcohol melts it then it basically kicks you in the butt on the way down....


Errrrmmm I think it had the desired effect!


Before hitting bars, pubs etc.... very very late night

Great time with good mates!

The Royal Toilet

Ok ok so I sometimes think of strange things - well in the car tonight on the way home I was thinking about the queen - have you ever imagined her on the loo? or farting in the bath? Then I went on to thinking what kind of loo roll she might use and whether she ever gets caught short and runs out of paper on the roll and has to run to the airing cupboard with her nickers around her ankles - or whether she has a royal bell in the lav to ring for assitance??? or maybe there is someone who's sole job is as a royal loo roll checker who makes sure that a loo roll never gets more than half way through before it is changed just to be on the safe side????

Hmmmmm and just for clarification no I ain't been drinking! and no I aint losing my marbles!

With all that said I am looking forward to my jolly jaunt to London this weekend, off down to see some mates - D, S, L and possibly R and of course a bit of celebrating :)

E is at her dad's again this weekend since I think he is trying to make up for neglecting her and not having her when he is supposed to so at least the trip will take my mind off that!

Incidentally the loo roll thought was broken in the car by E piping up Mummy you look luminous! My god this is a three year old (nearly 4) we are talking about - so I decided to question her - I asked E do you know what that word means - to which she answered of course I do its when you are all shiney like bright green - bright kid huh! - then I realised the bright green was coming from the traffic lights which had turned green - oops!

Ok early night nn x

Early night zzzzzzzzz's needed.

Just so you know ;)

Weird Dream!

had a strange dream last night - I was teaching in IT2 a mixture of kids and struggling with some of the lovely year 11's who think that all they are doing now is wasting time till they leave school, when at the end of the lesson our lovely network manager D who is off at the moment for quite a while came in looking really gaunt and really quite thin and gave me a cuddle and said keep it up good job!!!!!!!!.... weird - for two reasons - one that I should actually be dreaming about work on a weekend - how sad is that! and two anyone who knows D will know that there is no way on this earth that he would ever come up to me (or anyone for that matter - just not in his nature)and give them a cuddle like that!!!!!!!!!

WEIRD!

Do NOT under any circumstances sleep on your lovely pure cotton white sheets after putting a semi-permanent colour on your hair (hmmmmmmmmmm)

Do however blame the cat before you realise your stupid mistake - very funny!!!!

Sniffle Sniffle

Well since I didn't have anything planned tonight I agreed to babysit for next door - so sat all night with good intentions of doing work and doing nothing! Watched the film Hope Floats - last time I saw this was when it first came out in 1998 and lots has happened since then so as usual was a complete wuss and cried all the way through it! Bloody Typical

Are you lonesome tonight :(

No E this weekend (her dad finally has her for a weekend) :( any suggestions?

Alternative Teaching!

So today and yesterday at work I have been teaching Marketing to the year 8 kids and we were discussing different types of advertising and to get across the point of exceptional marketing I went back to MY School days.... When I was a kid there was that advert on the TV for Shake and Vac (do the shake and vac and put the freshness back, do the shake and vac etc etc)now how good was that advertising???? I remember all the words and music and the actions too and when I got my first house I actually bought some of the bloody stuff to try (not that its that good especially as you have to hoover for about 2 years solid to get the stuff up) - anyway the kids really enjoyed my song and dance and have produced some really good logo's for the project we are working on (and I got a round of applause for my efforts ha ha - even if they do think I'm mad now!)...

Point to this being - does anyone know anywhere on the web where I can download the actualy advert - will be real funny if I can show them next lesson!

PS: Just realised how is that for in-keeping with my nostalgia trips of the last couple of days!

Hmmmm Strange

Driving home from work tonight I stopped for petrol in Guisborough and got some chewing gum (onion in salad at lunch yuk) but it was really weird - I stuck a piece in my mouth and I for some reason felt like a kid and could remember when my dad gave me my first piece of chewing gum to try - then we went by the turning to Upleatham and again the feelings were there as if I was a kid in the car with my parents going to the seaside - terribly odd I gotta say - maybe the doll thing at the weekend sparked that off or the fact that I've just really been missing dad recently!

I have to say it was a odd in a nice way that I've remembered stuff I had completely forgotten - funny the human brain at times!

Practically Perfect in Every Way

The weekend that is....


E was supposed to go to her dad's but he was too busy so I got her again yayyyyyy (not particularly good for E but hey). I hate it when shes not around - gets kinda lonely so I made the most of the weekend. The past week I feel like I've neglected her a little bit cause I've been so busy with Uni work up till all hours in morning so it was nice when I handed it in Friday to just chill. So Saturday we went into Guisborough and hit the sales wooo hooo (two women you see - well one woman one child) then just messed about all day either in the house or in the garden - was nice when she came up to me and planted a massive kiss on me and said I love you mummy - sweet.

Sunday we spent the morning mooching again and I got out my old dolls from when I was a kid which my mum insisted on keeping in case I had kids (wise old dear at times)then we went to the Blackwell Ox at Faceby for a lovely meal - its a pub specialising in Thai food and it was delicious.

So all in all a lovely weekend lazing and doing good stuff for a change!

Strssed Out

Why is it when I get stressed out I get a craving for Ice Lollies and Pickled Onion Monster Munch Crisps? And when I am talking about ice lollies I really mean kids ice lollies in terms of those really long ice pops and Fab Ice Lollies (which are my all time favourite I have to add - love the yummy strawberry bit) - hmmmmm visit to shops tomorrow on way home from work I think! Have to say if I had to choose ice lolly or crisps ice lolly would win out every time.

I just love Uni deadlines :)

Right time for another 1.30am finish i think hmmmmm zzzzzzzzz's seriously needed

Birthday Bash

Can you guess what is it yet?????


Ok Sis and hubby - might not look funny but 30 seconds after this pic was taken the chair collapsed lol - so funny!


Ok maybe the comment about age did not go down to well!!!

Sis had a real good time - and unexpected which was great. We had party food etc then she scooted off with her hubby to do some retail therapy while I looked after the kids - park etc the usual.

5 Hours later they returned lol and we had some nice drinkypoos - had to really didnt we :) Mind you a 1 year old (going on 2) a 3 year old and a 3 year old (going on 4) are bloody hard work!

Fiona Jones - 2006/1

Starting new for my Bridget Jones Esque what not to do for 2006......

Hairslide......

Under no circumstances be tempted to put a spring loaded hair slide in your mouth whilst twisting your hair into a gorgeous sleek Chignon. At the vital moment it will find an excuse for no reason to release said spring loaded mechanism and fire a lovely thin piece of metal at 100+ miles an hour to your eye - owwwwwww

Hand Blender Update....

Been returned ....... How bloody long??????

Anyway Big Sis is 35 tomorrow and I'm in charge of arranging the party wooo hooo (of course) - should be fun :)

Holiday booked!

Ok so not exotic or anything like that but booked a holiday to the Isle or Arran! Went to a wedding there a couple of years ago just for a weekend and it was lovely, the kinda place you go to just relax and have some fun in the sea, countryside etc. The pic is the cottage I have rented - not quite as grand as the one in Ireland but it will certainly do me and E for the week - of which all she is interested in is there will be a beach there - easily please at 4 years old you see!

So anyway roll on August - might even pop across to Mull and Iona etc and maybe Tobermory (Balamory to satisfy E) and rent a boat and have some fun on the waves.

Other than that have a fun weekend planned for London at the end of this month for my Birthday visiting some Pals! that is if I don't get lost on the underground....again lol.

Bloody Nora

Still having problems with PC so whilst restoring yet again went downstairs, locked up, fed cat, got lappy and folders together, switched off all the lights and made way upstairs deep in thought of Uni when I shit myself at the top with a little girl very pale looking at me - E then exclaimed I can't sleep - I picked everything up again including myself - luckily not hurt by scolding cup of tea - bloody nora she can be quiet at times!

Wooooo Hoooooooooo and update

Excuse the baggy sallopetes hmm hmm lost a bit of weight since i lost wore em lol
LOL what more can I say
Ok Looks tame but when you can't stop it aint and you don't really get the gist of it with this poc except length!

Ok so a while since I last posted I think -well since the snow anyway which was way cool as you can see. The pic of me bent over is the one of me after going down the track which does not look much however on compacted snow hurtling along with no way of stopping except sticking your arse no the ground because of the ridge in the middle of the track it was pretty hair raising, the next time I went down on the field lol. The pic is my mate D's car, bearing in mind my mate is fron Scotland you'd think that snow would be part of the course however when I got a call asking for a spade and I laughed I got the phone put down on me!!! - hot headed again lol. Anyway various bruises, scrapes etc and a bit of ice skating and shopping thrown in for good measure a long with plenty of mulled wine (yummy and finest yet I have to say) it was a blast. Shame its gone now but I'm holding out for more as I usually get it around Feb/March time here - oh and first time out on the board was great and I'm still alive so gotta be a bonus :)

Yayyyyyy

Found a button which said computer restore so I am officially back at the 8th December when PC was working fine :) therefore have MSN and explorer back yay - question is how did it bodge up anyway????

Main thing is I'm back in wokring order again :)
