Oh I do like to be beside the seaside

What a BEAUTIFUL morning... What better than a walk to the sea! Rubble, Tomtom and I loved it x

A few things to create today...

Yesterday Mummy and I made some yummy elderflower! Yum yum, doesn't it look good!

I also made my famous Banana and Chocolate chip bread.... Equally as Yummy and I get lots of praise and L O V E from the 'little one' for this.... Thanks Abs x

So, Today's creations will be...

Tom will help and get this on my wall to create my own Style Pin board

Also... Like to give that old skill of making friendship bracelets ago!

The Neon's on these would look so fab as the summer heats up.

A litle fashion fix......

A few little pieces I l o v e and fancy for this Monday lunch time!

Windy days ......

What better to do when the wind is blowing than to peacefully sit in the sun streaming through the window!

These two are my loves

Home sweet home......

Back from an exhausting weekend: First the trip back from London was long and extended having to go via Norwich! WOW what a long way!

Trip to Bedford to see my friend Jane her hubby Phil and little one Zach was just awesome! Drank Pimms in the sunshine, had girlie time getting ready and partied all night with a great bunch of people.

A little pic to sum it all up!

Girl about country become girl about city

Pack, pack, pack.... but only lightly! Off to London for a few days to shop for a ball dress and wedding dress. Dinkies with friends and to get a bit of city life back into my rural one!

Dresses to consider : Perhaps a Little OTT. But I l o v e it

or perhaps something like this

and If only i could wear this

Love them all, just not the prices!

Tonigth has not much in store, apart from decideing what i'd spend my Lottery winnings on (63 million?!) and seeing my mum and sis for some wine and grub. Need my rest before hitting the light of London tomorrow.

Meetings meetings meetings.....

Girl about country is off for serious meetings! That's scary enough let alone it being at my old school! ahhhh please be nice to me old teachers! hee hee

Yes HATTER FITNESS will hope to launch at Greshams School this summer!

yes this is me!

Will let you know how it goes.....

Girl about Country

Week 2.

Well the best hour of my week is over for another Monday! Puppy classes are truly magical! 12 oh so well behaved pups! IT IS HILARIOUS... but i L O V E it....

Rubble, obviously is the best behaved and cutest puppy in the room! However he does always pee at the worst possible timing!Oh well...

This week we have learn 'sit' 'down' 'wait' and 'stay'! If only we could do this to them! It might be a little easier to keep track of them....

so, onto my evening! I woud love a glass of wine me think! But so im bored and only got Rubs to chat to again....  Sunday Blues has crept into Monday blues!

Girl about country become girl about town again in 36hours! Ahhh yeepee! I can not wait.... still deciding what to wear!

Would totally love to wear this!

But think i'll be something a little more like this....
