This or That?

OK so I found another list of questions to answer, but this time they are all this or that questions. There are only 14 so its not too long! Here we go:

1. Christmas or New Year?
I got to say Christmas for this one, I just love the build up and the giving gifts and spending time with my family. Christmas has got to be my favourite time of year. Ever.

2. Cats or Dogs?
I suppose I am more of a cat person, most people in my family have cats.

3. Silver or Gold?
Got to be Silver for me, or white gold, I just can't get away with gold.

4. Surprises or Arrangements?
Surprises, I just love the idea of not knowing. I also love to do surprises on other people.

5. Icecream or Custard?
Ohhhh good one, If its with cake its got to be custard, theres just nothing better. But if its just sat at home its got to be icecream, Ben & Jerries Chunkey Monkey flavour of course. Yum yum.

6. Flowers or Chocolates?
Hmmm, flowers I suppose. But it would have to be lillies or orchids. What can I say, I have expensive taste!

7. Boys or Girls?
Boys, Most of my friends are boys, I just seem to get along with them better!

8. New Shoes or New Clothes?
Shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, shoes, erm.....can you tell I love shoes???

9. Hot Free Summer Days or Cosy Warm Winter Nights?
Ooooo, another good one. I think it would have to be hot summer days with a group of friends otherwise it would have to be cosy nights in with my man.

10. Shower or Bath?
Definately got to be a bath, with lots of bubbles and candles and music! I spend hours in the bath!

11. Text Message or Phone Call?
Phone call, its so nice to hear peoples voices.

12. Batman or Superman?
Batman, just look at his cool car!!!

13. Tea or Coffee?
None! I don't drink caffine so it would have to be a hot chocolate for me!

14. Music or Silence?
Got to be music!

Big up antibiotics!!! (and I name drop a few stars)

Well, what a week I have had. I got tonsilitis on Wednesday, which was great for my Valentines Night I can tell you!!! I was off work for 3 days untill the antibiotics kicked in. I have never had tonsilitis before and it freaked me out because instead of my throat being sore, it was more into my left ear! I could eat at all, and I spent most of the time asleep. However Friday afternoon saw the antibiotics kick in. What fabulous things they are too. Yeah ok, so they are huge and they taste minging but they are truely a wonder drug. I would just like to dedicate this blog to antibiotics, it is because of them that I am alive today to write this blog!




ok maybe a bit over the top but they are fab!

I recovered in time to go to the trade show in Birmingham NEC with my mum and my sister. Had great fun doing all the classes and playing with all the latest tools. Got lots of freebies too. Also got chatting to Heidi from Scrapbook Mate again, she soooooo wants me, my mum and my sister to go back to Scrap-a-Ganza this year. We first met her over there, along with Mr & Mrs Bazzil and Mr Rusty Pickle and Becks Fagg, to name drop just a few. We had such a great time over there and of course that is where I won my All My Memories pink luggage set. We met Mr & Mrs Bazzil's Daughter last weekend, and got to see Tim Holtz too.

Anyway we were talking to Heidi on the Scrapbook Mate stall and she collared me again in the halls asking if I was definately going to go. My sister thinks its hillarious that the designers know us (basically cos we were the loud ones at Scrap-a-Ganza) and that they come over to talk to us.

So......I now present myself as.........

*drum roll please*


Friend of Scrapbooking Royalty! hehe

Let it snow!

Yes, thats right, the day after I buy a convertable we get severe weather warnings for snow. Typical! Although I can't complain too much as it is only a sprinkling. Not the 6" we were promised! Thought I would share a picture of our office carpark showing the 'mountains' of snow we have had. In any luck, it will all be gone by Saturday when I get to pick up my car. I then get the pleasure of driving it down to Birmingham to go see my man. Nice little trip out in my new car!

Check out my new car!!!

Isn't she gorgeous? For those of you who aren't petrol heads its a Mazda MX-5 1.8i Special Edition Phoenix Convertable. Stunning! Titan grey with Saddle leather upholstery. Fitted with five spoke alloy wheels and heated seats, it really is a good specimen. And to drive, oh, its like heaven. So responsive and it sticks to the road like anything.
Only now I have to wait till I can pick it up before I can drive it again!

Won't be long now, bring on the summer!

Bliss, absolute bliss!

Me and my sister paid a visit to our local aquatics centre last night to use their spa facilities. What can I say? Pure bliss! Sauna and steam room and jacuzzi and sugar rub and moisture mask! WOW!!! My skin is soooo soft today! I think we shall have to make it a weekly event!

Mind you, it seemed like we were the only females in there, it was full of blokes!

And I can't have looked very good in my bikini with the huge bruise I have on my leg. Oh I forgot to tell you about that didn't I? It happened on Friday in the Comedy Club. It was dark and I was trying to make it back to my seat before the show started again and I managed to walk full force into something. I thought nothing of it that night and continued to enjoy the free bar and comedy. Next morning I wake up with a completely dead leg and a huge lump and bruise. Now I always used to laugh at the footballers who claimed a dead leg as an injury, stoopid boys, a dead leg goes in an hour at most. Nooooooooo, how wrong I was. I have had pins and needles throughout my whole leg all week. Never mind eh? I'm sure I'll get over it!

Right plans for the weekend include going to the pictures on Friday, then on Saturday I am going to look at a new car. I am bored with my car. There is nothing wrong with it, in fact its a perfectly reliable, sensible, new car, but its BORING!!! I am going to look at a Mazda MX-5. Mmmmmm now thats a car!

Off to dream dreams of MX-5's!
