Updatey

So it has been over a month since I blogged, it has been a busy and fun month so at night I tend to just veg and the ability to string together a sentence sometimes eludes me.

Early July saw a well deserved and rare night out dancing with my girlies. Sadly it was because Vicki was moving office, she is still with the firm but as she passed all her exams she a a training contract so all is good. Vicki and her friend Laura ended up taking me to The Razz as I had never been before and apparently it is something that everyone should experience, and an experience it was haha fat frogs all round!

Many people say it is a place you can only ho to when you;re drunk and the sign of how good your night is is by how far the black scum goes up your leg. It kind of reminded me of a cheesey pop version of the K.

So following that was our awesome holiday to Whitby.

We went with Luke, Ellie and their three and Beth, Dave and their two. It was madness and altogether too much fun.

We have a lovely windy visit to Whitby Abbey where we saw an executioner chop the heads off some potato puppets, We had two days at Robin Hoods Bay playing the sea and crabbing in the rock pools and building sandcastles. We had a trip to Scarborough to walk along the front and a visit to the Sealife Centre. One day each family went and did their own thing so Me, Tom and O scooted over to York for the day which was lovely.

We stayed in a converted barn on a working fall, it was beautiful and in the middle of no were next to sneaton forest so lots of things to explore. Five minutes up the road in Sneaton forest was falling foss falls which again was beautiful and gave another opportunity for getting feet wet in the streams.

It truly was a wonderful holiday full of fish and chips and too much cake :)

When we came home, with a bit of a bump and post holiday blues, I met Nich and we went to watch the last Harry Potter, I was really routing for the Voldermort guy but sadly he didn't win, shame. I enjoyed it and plan on buying the box set in a few years when it is cheap on eBay and make Liv watch them when she is old enough heh

Tom and I also managed to go on a date this month. We went to the cinema to watch Captain America. I loved it, I sobbed, really sobbed bottom lip wobbly and everything. In my defence I was rather hormonal that day but I still would have cried hehe.

I do love a super hero movie and I love that the recent ones are all building up to The Avengers movie next summer, need to rent Thor at some point as I missed that one. Although I did see their car advert it was brilliant!

The X Factor starts again soon, I do love those auditions, it really is one of my guilty pleasures watching x factor. I am wondering how it will be without Simon Cowell. I thought the same about American Idol but that was good, but then I love Steven Tyler and the fact he used my fuck a duck saying and added more to it made my day :)

I also found myself telling my body that I must be pregnant by the time the winner is announced, I hope it paying attention!

I am pretty sure there is more that I wanted to say but I think that this is long enough for now, time to get a drink and curl up with a book.

Oh I must add, I am watching Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and Helena Bonham Carter is just brilliant as Bellatrix.
