Cinema trip

A couple evenings ago I met my good friend Christine for a catch up and trip to cinema. We went to see Friends with Benefits. A definite girls movie or maybe for some couples. Funny and romantic, touching in parts. Would recommend a viewing. Now then, which movie to see next?

Hi there,
Getting back into my reading again. Currently reading " A Visit from the Goon Squad" by Jennifer Egan, which I seem to be breezing through, always a good sign. Waiting on the bedside table also is "The Book of Human Skin" by Michelle Lovric whom I haven't read before so looking forward to that. Let you know how it goes. Any good recommendations out there? I find it very hard to walk past a book shop!
Hello, What a lovely day. Bright and sunny but very windy. Been spoiling Smokey, our rabbit. Made her hutch really comfy. She is spoilt rotten, we're always treating her to tasty snacks (well, for rabbits)  and new toys to stop her from getting bored. Here she is with my daughter Laura who is totally gaga about Smokey.
I recently mentioned going to Chatsworth and watching the balloons go up. Doesn't this look great. Such an uplifting image.

One Day

Took Mum to see One Day at the cinema. Having read the book earlier this year I was looking forward to seeing this. I was not disappointed and feel my eyes start to well up a couple of times. Probably one for the girls but certainly worth a viewing.

Chatsworth country show

On Sunday I went to Chatsworth country show. What started out as a rainy day brightened to a lovely sunny afternoon. Lots to see from dog competitions and horse and cart races etc.. Sadly didn't see Red Arrows, which i love to see , but did see them earlier in the year at athe Waddington Air Show. Had a go at archery, would probably do that again. Had my palm read; interesting. I loved watching the hot air balloons go up at the end of the day.
