Bling Bling

December 31st, 2011

I was really hoping for a diamond necklace for Christmas, but who was I kidding? Me and my husband have never really spent a lot of money on each others gifts for any occasion as we are not really materialistic people but sometimes it would be nice to be ‘treated’ and nothing says treat like a shiny new bit of diamond jewellery, right?

All inclusive for 2012

December 31st, 2011

I am looking for a great family all inclusive resort in Lanzarote somewhere for summer 2012 if any one has any reccomendations? I always read reviews of places I am considering on sites like Trip Advisor but I find that nothing beats a personal reccomendation from someone that you know and can actually ask any questions you might have about specific things.

Newbie runner

December 31st, 2011

I have been looking at trophies this afternoon as I am going to buy one for my other half who has recently taken up running following the couch to 5k plan and he’s just signed up for his first proper race – a 10k – in April 2012. It would be nice to get him a little something to show him how proud I am of him when he completes it.

I want the boots!!

December 20th, 2011

One of the top things on my wishlist for Christmas this year was some Lucchese Boots but I don’t think I am going to be able to get any – my other half has already bought me an expensive gift and my family don’t spend that much on me. Hopefully some will come up in the sale and we’ll be able to pick some up then :)

Strumming that guitar

December 9th, 2011

I am thinking of getting my brother a guitar for Christmas this year – he used to have one as a teenager and got quite good at it, he used to spend hours teaching himself how to play and if I remember correctly he even had a few lessons and played a few gigs with a few friends.

He’s been mentioning it a lot recently so I am not sure if he’s hinting at wanting one now or not but either way I think that it’s a nice idea :)
