I was tagged by Weareyouneak to show 7 things that are bling-bling! Sadly I didn’t make 7 and they don’t really count as bling, ha! I am so un-bling. Sequins on my 1920s flapper dress / Indie’s collar / metallic silver nails / disco balls on my tree / stickers for mails going out I’m [...]

Pretend it’s about an hour earlier and i would tell you i just got back from cycling to town. The ride was tricky, switching lanes from left to right and right to left. And then we cycled home after a pint of beer – not a brilliant idea at all! I completely rammed into something [...]
