But boot sales are oh so cheap!


As I sit here listening to Busted (ah, sweet nostalgia)

I may have to admit that I bought a few goodies at
the carboot sale today!
But I had to go, to show my dear pal
NatElizabeth
(PLUS, we bumped into Alexa! Yay!)
My best buys, in my opinion were:


This vintagey box thing for all bits and bobs!

How much? How much? How much?

Well, at first I was told £1...
but I was running low on the £££
I mean realllly low...

SO..

I BOUGHT IT FOR 63 PENCE
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(or was it 66?)
who cares? because either way,
"WHAT A BARGAIN!"

I also bought this book which I had read up about
and actually looked at a smaller version of
in a local book shop...


20 PENCE!
on the back it says £12.99
.
.
.

I know, right?!

Other than that,
I had a fabulous time later
when Nat, Iza and I went
for a spot of photography for
Nat's photography website which she
will *hopefully* launch this Monday!
(so excited to see it!!!)

And boy, was it hot today!
How did you beauties
enjoy/avoid the (rather heavy)
sprinkling of sunshine?

straws, strawberries and water from a guiness glass

Wednesday June 23rd: 
Summer officially started 2 days ago!

And what better to much on in the 
Sun than some succulent strawbs?
(no, not the haribo ones! 
golly gosh!)

I'd like to say, 'Here are some I grew myself!' 
but it was indeed the papa who planted them!
Some still have a wee bit to go
(I'm not even Scottish...OH WELL I like
the word 'wee' -in the sense 'little')
but some...
...are ripe and ready to be
plopped into the morning
mornflake!

YUM!

(wow, I'm using a lot
of exlamation marks in this post
!!!!!!!)
Now...back to 
the one
the only
R

S

O
N
(physics exam tomorrow..
then chemistry on monday
and then
FINITO!)

and to finish off this post, 
I'd like to leave you lovelies a 
hydration tip! 
oh yes - big word :)

The summer sun has begun 
(couldn't resist the rhyme, 
do forgive my cheesiness)

(^couldn't help myself!)

Anyway, where was I?
oh yes..basically

-it's hot
-you get dehydrated
-you want to drink water
-you know you should drink 
more than you actually do
so....

I have the answer!
(for me, anyway ;)

Some people really don't like water 
and say it has no taste etc etc
(maybe plop a starberry in 
your glass next time?
..just a thought..ANYWAY-
gosh, I am distractable)

Personally, I find drinking water 
pretty easy and second nature
 as I don't drink much else! 
I don't like juicy, fizzy drinks, 
or milk on its own..

even so, I find drinking out
of a big glass such as a Guinness
glass :) and with a
(fabulous luminous green)
STRAW 
makes me drink so much quicker
and just makes it easier..and
in a way more fun, haha!

Try it if you're trying
to drink lots of water
(H2O is super healthy
and good for you,
 remember!)

I should really get my hands on
those curly straws I reckon
most of you remember from childhood:

okay, this was a
crazy long post, 
if you got to this point 
then have an orange
as a reward :D :D :D

(photo taken in Spain 
this last Christmas :)


(and no, these aren't for you lazy little
skim readers!....I confess, I do it too
sometimes, so go on,
you can have an orange too!)

I must be in a very strange mood
- a delirious one indeed-
to offer people oranges through 
the internet...hehe, well 
this is me!

enjoy the sunshine

will probs go down well with all ye floral fellows out there


and this pair are pleated - still shorts - do not be fooled...
