Weekly Ramble #7/London

Hello Earthlings,

MASSIVE DELAY IN POSTING THIS I AM TERRIBLY SORRY.

I would like to inform you that I have been organised, for once, as this is being typed whilst on the train from St Pancras to Chesterfield on Thursday. First class with complimentary cups of tea, this is basically heaven (free cups of tea?!) anyway you honestly have no idea how official I feel. Everyone around me is tapping away on a laptop etc doing important things and look at me, blending in with them all being all official. I like it.

For a while my mum and I had this trip to London planned, go down on the Wednesday and come back on the Thursday. It wasn't really for a specific purpose, just to see London and be tourists. I loved the thought of walking around London, because you only ever see the big sightseeing destinations on TV but I actually walked near them. I'll get to all that soon though, it turns out that my mum booked for us to go and see Mamma Mia at The Novello theatre as a surprise. Speaking for myself, I love Mamma Mia and anything to do with it...speaking for my mum, Mamma Mia isn't exactly her cup of tea but even she enjoyed the show.

I wanted this blog post to be mainly a collection of photos from my amazing trip so without further ado...

The Palace

Big Ben

ParLIAment Square, see what I did there?

HUMANS

Churchill

This donut was bigger than my hand.

London Eye

I genuinely took a photo of a Starbucks purely for Ailish...

Had to go all the way to London for Starbucks to spell my name right.

LOOK HOW CUTE IT IS

I cried when Mamma Mia started, I'm being serious.

So proud of this photo

Platform 9 3/4

I can honestly say that London was such a surreal experience and I can't wait to return there.

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...

Phrases I Hate

Hey Earthlings! We all have those phrases or quotes or sometimes just words that when we hear them it makes our blood boil and our neck do that funny thing where you kind of go "bleurghuohui". You know what I mean? I've taken a few of them, listed them here and told you exactly why I hate them. Let me know if there's some more you hate. "There's someone out there worse off than you" Yes, this may be the case and I hope they come out of their situation feeling all the joys of spring but just because there is someone out there with more issues than you're feeling, it does not mean your experiences and feelings are invalid. If you are trying to comfort someone and make them feel better about their situation in what way is, "ah well don't worry, Tina down the road is way worse off than you are" going to make them feel better? EXACTLY. It won't. End of, let's just entirely blow this phrase away. "Respect your elders"...

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,...
