I hate my freckles

All through my teenage years my mum would always tell me that freckles are a sign of beauty. Really? Well I hated them and I still bloody do! Perhaps hate is a bit strong but I dislike them very very much! I have freckles on my face, arms and the lower half of my legs, the only place I don't have them is my torso.

Event 3 Mayday bank holiday

Yep going back to day 3 of the last bank holiday. I know I'm dragging this out a bit but I've been a bit out of action and I have done this post in record time as I'm trying to get packed to go away for a few days. Not even had time to edit any of the pics!

Elemis TSV

A good few weeks ago my excitement levels spiraled out of control. I was giddy with happiness. The reason? It was time for the Elemis TSV on QVC. I can tell you now, if there's an Elemis TSV, come what May my arse will be on that sofa at midnight, heart pounding, beads of sweat on forehead, phone in my sweaty palms, praying that I get my order in. Okay so maybe I'm exaggerating a teeny tiny bit, but I just had to have it. I buy all of the Elemis TSV's without fail, but this one was the best yet as it contained all of my favourites all in one handy little bag.

Essie Allure

I wanted to get myself a new nail colour and had in my mind I wanted a white shade. White's all in isn't it right now, along with the pastels. So off I went to Boots.

Event 2 Mayday Bank holiday

We spent Saturday night whooping and a hollering at a surprise party for my father-in-law's 80th birthday and retirement. Yes, retirement at 80. Got some energy in him that one to keep on working until that ripe old age!

Event 1 May Day Bank Holiday

We were invited to attend a wedding reception on Friday. This was the wedding of Joseph, our son's friend that he's known since primary school. He is 19 years old.

Estée Lauder Double Wear

It seems like I have been searching for the right foundation forever, and by golly I think I've only gone and found it!

Water Babies World Premiere

We love to go to the theatre and frequently visit our city's ultra modern, high tech theatre, The Curve, Leicester and on Tuesday this week went along to see the world premiere of a new musical called The Water Babies. We were very excited as we'd had the tickets booked for some time and had seen the adverts on the TV.
