A bit of Love

Happy Valentine day to you all. Hope those of you who go for the whole day of romance thing have been truly spoiled by your love.

I went for a walk along the Southsea beach and saw this little beach kiosk which is shut for the season but someone has made use of the blackboards outside:

Made me smile.

I think my local charity shop must have caught wind of my love for their crazy window displays and they did a special valentines one for me:

Oh yes a display of Elvis donations! :o)

Hubby also left me a little Valentines gift this morning  - covered by red heart balloons, cheesy yes but made me laugh. My gift was a silver charm for my Pandora bracelet.


And a little overheard conversation this morning in the newsagents -  A man in his early 30s buying a rose and a bottle on wine:
Shop Assistant: Last minute Valentines gift is it?
Man: "Oh no, I booked a fancy hotel for us both in France last weekend"
Shop Assistant "Ooh lovely, was it a nice trip?"
Man: "No, forgot me passport didn't I, we ended up having to spend the weekend in a grotty B&B in Dover"


Finally for those who cant stand the whole Valentines thing :

Big Love to you all

Happy Blogiversary to me!

I'm a few days late with this post, but who cares...its my 1 year blogiversary!

I really cant get over how quickly this year has flown. I started the blog during my maternity leave as a way to occupy myself during nap times  (not to mention as an avoidance of doing housework). I never thought when I started it that anyone would be interested in my ramblings, or that anyone would be as nutty as me about car boot sales and charity shops - well girls you certainly proved me wrong!

 I have made such amazing friends in you all, from those who have been with me since the early days to my newer friends, you really have made blogging such a pleasure.  I would also like to thank you all for inspiring me everyday, be it through your fabulous fashion and styling, your crafty makes, your life stories and observations, beautiful photography or your wise words. Blogland is bloomin' amazing!

Now to celebrate my 1 year blogiversary I will be having a giveaway shortly (now wishing I had bought that box of Tampax and stunt kite from my previous post *wink*).  Keep your eyes peeled :o)

Now I cant leave you without the latest charity shop window display for valentines day, full of all the items you would love to receive from your Valentine:

 Oh yes, it wouldn't be valentines day without a stuffed devil toy, a kinky nurses uniform, bubble bath, aftershave and....

A penis shaped bath bomb! Words fail me..

I hope this has given you all a few ideas for valentines *wink*

Big Love
