Colour Obstacle Rush

Hello Earthlings,

Today's post is basically just going to be me rambling about the Colour Obstacle Rush I did yesterday with my Mum, my Auntie Linda and Jack and I'll give the chauffeur/photographer a mention because I'm nice - Ayup Dad.

Anyway, I have wanted to do a Colour Obstacle Rush for quite a while. In my early teen years I would scroll through Tumblr being a cool kid and see those "bucket list" posts and doing a Colour Run would always pop up. So when my mum put "Do a colour run/obstacle course" on her list of 40 things to do at 40 list I thought that this would be the perfect opportunity to do one. So long story short, we booked it and did it. But you probably guessed that already...I knew you would.

Anyway, after we got there and Jack tried throwing me into the lake we all plodded along to registration and there was the cutest pug ever and it bounced along with its tongue out. Very pug like. We signed in and got our fancy t-shirts and then watched the first lot of rushers (is that an acceptable name for us all?) start rushing and went around to the warm up.

Me being me aka the worlds most unfit 17 year old was ready for dropping to the ground after the first five minutes of the warm up but no I continued for the entire 25 minutes. Then queued up for the first obstacle ready to start.

Honestly it was such a great day, even though the powder did not taste nice it was great practically flopping on the obstacles and face planting onto the steps of the slide. Everyone was so cheery and happy doing the rush and there was no element of it being some sort of race which in my opinion made it a better atmosphere. The obstacles weren't too challenging and there was lots of paint powder stuff to go around. I loved every second of it even if all my muscles have ached today.

Now I shall leave you with some pictures from the day:

Until next week,

Doris goes to see Captain Marvel | FILM REVIEW

Hello dearies! I hear the new film that's 'hot on the block' recently is this Captain Marvel one, and little old Doris does like to be hip, trendy and down with the kids *throws the equivalent of a swagger sign* so decided to hop on the bandwagon and go along, booking myself in for the 12.00 (pm just to clarify) showing at the local cinema. I'm currently cutting down on the whole chocolate/cake/biscuits scene, so sneaked a small tub of Pringles into the cinema with me...I have to say, I felt like a bit of a rebel eating food that I'd bought from somewhere else whilst inside the cinema, it was an adrenaline rush! If you're wondering what flavour Pringles they were, I obviously chose the best ones aka sour cream and onion as I'm not some sort of monster. Anyway, I did buy one of those Tango Ice thingymabobs as I hear that's too what the cool kids like to have at the cinema. I could only have cherry though as the machine wasn't working properly, t

End of Summer Catch Up

Hello Earthlings, One I know this post is late and last weeks was early but from this Sunday it will be back to normal and two please don't be upset with the title of this blog as I hate to tell all of you summer lovers but summer is nearing the end...well for 2016 anyway but saying summer 2017 seems a little bit too far away right now. I thought that I would take some time now to have a catch up, through the screens of our technical devices, before the new season is upon us. I have to say, I personally love the changing of the seasons, for any season not just for the end of the summer to the beginning of autumn but for all of them. I don't really have a favourite season because I love the perks of all of them; autumn means the leaves change colours and Halloween and Bonfire Night, winter means cold weather, cosiness, Christmas and New Year, spring means lighter nights, Easter and new life and summer means hot weather, relaxing and of course a lot of time off (well for now,

Hello Earthlings! As I sit and type this I'm tucked up cosy in bed and listening to the wind batter everything in sight, and it doesn't matter that today I turned 20 because the wind still scares me so I'm still going to tuck up as tight as I can and try my best to ignore it after I've typed this. But, anyway! Hi. Birthdays are a funny thing, you know they're going to happen and you know that you get older but they're a bit odd. When I was little, I looked forward to being a teenager which in itself is completely barmy (maybe I'm the only one intimidated by groups of teenagers...), and I always thought "13 is such a grown up age!!!" because 6 year old me was clearly clueless. I remember a particular time where I stood looking out of my bedroom window, in the house I lived in as a young child, wistfully into the distance (you know like they do on films where it gets to a real deep moment?) and couldn't wait for 13 to arrive so I could be a &
