Well Hello, so sorry its taken me ages to get back to blogging. I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year.
Ive actually been in trouble for having yet another leisurely break from blogging, seems life just gets in the way, but its nice people are waiting for me to get back to it.
So whats been happening? So so much, Ill tell all over the next few days (is this Hello! or Ok!) but right now here's Christmas and New Year.
Christmas was lovely but very brief. I finished work very late on Christmas eve and drove home Christmas morning. It was actually kinda beautiful driving home then. All the countryside was white with snow and it was the stillest and quietest drive I've ever done. Only me and Radio 1 and 5Live all the way home.
I got home and went to my parents where my sister had been waiting for me cause Santa had been. After we opened our presents we had a yummy Christmas dinner made by my Mam. Even though the magic isn't the same as when you're a kid, I love that Christmas day is still the same as when I was small.
After lunch I had to have a little kippsy cause I was shattered then I went to see my family and play cards and consequences. Other people think we are a strange family cause we don't watch telly and eat chocolate all afternoon but I secretly love the card games.
The rest of Christmas was spent with family and friends before I came back to work on the 29th.
What about New Year? Well this year was an interesting one, I was at work very early on both New Years Eve and New Years Day (boo) but my family are fab and drove down to Birmingham and staying in a hotel (even booked me a room) just so we could all spend a few hours together to see in the New Year.
When they arrived we went for a little bit shopping then to the Burlington Hotel bar (that's a whole other post), we went for dinner at the Tapas place next to work which I walk past everyday but Id never been. It was fabulous (maybe the Sangria helped). We had drinks in Penny Blacks and Bar Room Bar in the Mailbox before going to Centenary Square for midnight. In the square was the Birmingham Christmas wheel, which I wanted to go on just cause it was lit up. Michael took this photo, isn't it pretty? At midnight there was lovely fireworks to mark 2010 and round off an excellent New Years Eve.
I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year and it doesn't feel like forever ago. I cant believe its February already, isn't 2010 flying!
