Things I like

I've been meaning to post this all week!
These are the things I do like... in response to the things I don't like... 
My dislike for Ricky Gervais hasn't gone down well! haha! I just really don't enjoy his humour... I'm sure he's a lovely bloke other than that!
Anyway... here's what I do like...

I've had a week off this week so I'll fill you in on all the gossip (like I ever have gossip... hahaha, I really don't!)
Love xx

Things I don't like...

I'll be honest there aren't many things I don't like so this video isn't very long, but sometimes you just have to vent about the things you don't like!

I've made a things I do like video too, will post that in the next couple of days :-) that was much more fun to make!
I also wanna hear about the things you like or don't like!

Picnics, Tree Climbing and Playing with your Food!

It's been sunny! And it's been my day off! AND my friend came to visit! Whoop whoop!
We had such a lovely day, I met her from the train station and I asked her what she wanted to do, and all she said was "PICNIC!" hahaha so thats what we did!
We got our supplies and suncream ready and went stomping off across the common. It was really windy though... this is Emma searching for a good "picnic spot" 

You know what it's like, you have to find the perfect spot, enough sunshine, good view, not too much wind that all your food would blow away! Anyway we found it! It was good! And none of our food blew away in the wind.

Our picnic consisted of sugar snap peas, apples, nectarines, olives, chorizo, vegtable crisps, beef jerky, sundried tomatoes and this stuff called "giganticorn" which was really seriously gross! It tasted like savoury sugarpuffs!!! We didn't eat those... because, you know, blegh! We did however make use of them in our "Food face" -

It's like we can't help it! Me and Emma get together and silliness has to happen at some point. He's called Fredrick, and we ate him... apart from his teeth, because giganticorn is wrong! hahaha! (Emma thinks giganticorn sounds like an evil corn villain - I agree!)

Also then we had to climb a tree, it was only a little tree, we weren't feeling too adventurous today. And we had just been lying in the sun for and hour and a half eating food! 

So I've had a lovely day in the sunshine, hooray. It's nice when you get to have a day where all you have to worry about is finding a good spot to sit and eat and talk with your friend. 

Happy days.

Love and picnics

Remember this guy?

Hey!

You may remember me writing a song about a cat that I see on my way home everyday? I used to call him/her Mister Flufferbutt McGee... well I still see him most days, and he runs over for his hugs!

The other day I met his owner - and he is actually a he, and not a girl like I thought at one point! AND his name is actually Archie... I didn't tell his owner that I call him Mister Flufferbutt McGee and I definitely didn't tell her that "Archie" has a song dedicated to him on Youtube... hahahaha!

Anyway this is what Fluffer looks like - 

He's really cute!

If you never heard the song... and honestly it is really very silly, then here it is...

Err... yeah so anyway...

Love and Meows

Sunshine, running and watching sport.

Hello!
We've had a little bit of summer! That was kinda nice. I spent a whole afternoon in my parents garden (I don't have a garden so I go there to sunbathe!) in the sun reading my book. I even turned my phone off! It was lovely. I know sunbathing isn't very good for you but I enjoy it so much and I always put sunscreen on and go into the shade frequently. 
I got to see the lovely Merlin and Ozzie too (Or Merlie and Noodle as I call them!! hahaha)

I'm really enjoying watching the Olympic Games too, I always love being able to watch all the different sports that are never normally on tv. It's boring that we only get to see football, rugby, cricket, golf and a few others the rest of the time. Wouldn't it be great if womens sport was on tv on a regular basis too?
Talking of sport and exercise, I had pretty much a whole month off running, what with being unwell and then injuring my knee. I'm back running again but I'm having to take it easy because of my knee and also because my fitness has taken a bit of a hit unfortunately. I'm back on it though, and hopefully I will be able to take part in the Mud Runner in a couple of months or so.
I do like running, although sometimes I hate it because it's so hard!

How do you survive having a cold?

Well.. okay, it's not that hard to survive a cold! But these are my tips to make sure you get through it without feeling too bad...

... If you are poorly right now, I hope you feel better soon
Love

Disappointed!

I should be at Mud Runner right now! But instead I am at home. I didn't get a cold incidentally - I got flu instead. A cold I could have dealt with, and I would have been out there running today. But no, I had the works, shivers, aching muscles, face pain (yeah I know face pain?) and well now I have a normal cold. So I think taking all my supplements means it has gone away quicker than it would have done, but it means that I'm not able to do mud runner oblivion anyway.
Seriously gutted!
Clare will be at the race ready to go right now, I'm so jealous! All our runs out together in preparation, and now she has to do the event on her own! Never fear though, I will find other events to do! AND I won't be getting sick before them! 
You know what it is? It's Ruuuuuubbish! hahaha!
Well I'm wishing Clare the best of luck, and I'm sure I'll be out training again soon! :-)
Love and no mud!
