Some more fun with my nephew!

So I spent another fun filled few hours with my nephew. He's the cutest thing! I need to get my neice to pose for a few photographs next time though!

A day trip to Ireland

This weekend, Des and I visited my cousin Michelle in Ireland. We took the 08:55 ferry from Holyhead to Dun Laoghaire and spent the best part of the day with Michelle.

I slept part of the way to Dublin, and pretty much all of the way home, so I didn;t get any photographs of the sea, or the journey, but I did remember to photograph Michelle, and her cute little pooch, Bob.

Hopefully we'll head over again real soon, but do a couple of days. I really love Michelle loads, and I miss her so much! We so didn't spend enough time gossiping about our family! Heh!

Nikki is home!


There will be a lack of photographs on this post, as stupidly, I forgot to take my camera when we picked Nikki up from the airport last Thursday!

She landed in Manchester at around 10:35pm on May 1st. We drove back to my parents house and the following day Nikki and I went shopping to Broughton retail park.

Nikki should be coming here tomorrow at some point and I think we're going for a meal later on, with a couple of my friends. I'll take my camera with me and be sure to take a few photographs!

In the meantime, above is a photograph Nikki took of herself in Egypt!

Some Photographs

I'm so bored since it's my day off today. I was going to visit my parents but I went this weekend and I'm trying to save some money since my next payday isn't until May 1st.

Thought I'd share some photographs from the weekend...

Less than 3 weeks till Nikki is home!!


I seriously cannot wait three weeks! Nikki has been in Egypt since October and I miss her so much!!

I'm travelling to Londons Gatwick airport with my Dad to pick her up on May 1st. We'll spend a few days together and then we're off for a couple of days in London so she can pick up her Visa for working in the States over the summer. I'm hoping we can squeeze in a trip to Monkey World too...Doing the tourist thing should be fun!

Anyway, the pics were taken off facebook. I think the one above was added by someone else, and the bottom ones were added by her.

Missing you lots, Nikki! Love you loads and I can't wait to see you!! *HUGS & KISSES*

Happy Birthday Mum!!

Hope you had a great day and liked the birthday present!! Love you! xx

It's April already?


Where did the year go? I just can't believe it's gone by so fast. It seems like yesterday we were planning for Christmas!!

Well, the weather is still shocking, so I've been keeping warm in my awesome socks! They are long stripey over-the-knee socks, and I did without cigarettes for a whole day to buy these!

In other news, I've got some kind of colour blindness and screwed up peripheral vision. A trip to the optician confirmed it yesterday =o(. I've been referred to my GP and the eye hospital for further tests to see what strain of colour blindness I have (which cone is damaged and whether it's one or both eyes) and to try and do something with the peripheral vision. I'm hoping I don;t have to have those stupid patches again like I did have for my astigmatism when I was a kid. I have, however got a new pair of glasses on order, and my first pair of perscription sunglasses.

The everyday glasses are thick black plastic frames (think librarian) with a small gold flower type detail on the arm. The sunglasses are thick black plastic frames too with black diamante detail on the arms. Whilst I'm looking forward to something different, it's going to be a huge change and they'll take a lot of getting used to. The optician and Des both said they looked nice and suited me, but I'm not so sure yet. Don't worry though, you'll get pictures next Tuesday or Wednesday! Then you can decide for yourself.

In the meantime, here's some pretty pictures of my nice socks! They're so comfy and I'm in love!!

Another Day Trip!

This time to Deeside ice rink and Blue Planet Aquarium.

We took my neice & nephew and my sister-in-law. Fun was had by all - oh, and a couple of bruised bottoms!!

I didn't get too many photographs at the ice rink as I had to register my camera before I was allowed to point the lens at the ice rink. By the time I learned that it was too late as Thomas was hungry and Emily had just fallen over and was crying. Oh well, here we go...Firstly are the pics of ice skating. Second in line are the photos from Blue Planet (I haven't got round to editing the majority of them yet!

Mwahahahaha! I have an Easter Egg!


And it was from Thorntons...and it's the prettiest egg ever...and and and...it's nearly all gone!!

Good job I took pictures of this perfect little egg! It was so tasty! Mmmmm!
I wonder if they'll all be reduced on Monday?
