Tiny H&M rant!

Hey sweeties!

I was in town with Kate yesterday shopping, as Kate had some birthday money to spend.

Happy birthday Kate!

So we popped into H&M as she seen a top online in the plus size range.
Me and Kate are both plus size and we're proud of that.
We went to the one on Newcastle's highstreet, which has 3 floors. We looked on each floor and couldn't find the range, in the end we asked somebody.
We eventually found it hid in a dark corner. I was felt uncomfortable and ashamed to be looking.
"Urgh fat peoples clothes, shove them out of the way somewhere"
came to my mind.
What was even worse I felt as if we were being mocked as there was hardly any room to move around the 5 single rows of clothes. They were all squashed together. I won't be going back to H&M as I personally feel that they're are sizest. And the staff just look at you like you're nothing. So I'll be sticking to Dorothy Perkins and George-Asda!

We're going to Digital tonight to celebrate her birthday!
If I have time I'll get an outfit photo.

Five reasons to smile:
1. I've nearly finished reading 50 Shades Darker.
2. It's Kates birthday.
3. I have 3 job interviews this week.
4. I'm getting a new phone in 2 days.
&
5. 10 days until I go to Leeds festival.

Do you have 5 or more reasons to smile this week?

To Eboracum!

Hey Sweeties!
With everything going on in life I forgot to post about my recent trip to York.
First of all we missed the damn train, we were in a hurry and I looked at the wrong board. 
Idiot.
Me & Yasmin stayed at Kate's new house which is SO big.
It even has a football table! Out came my competitive side, but Yassy whooped my ass. :(
Day 1. Once we had arrived and unpacked our stuff, we headed to an Indians which was lovely I didn't have a Korma! Strange I know, I always have a Korma. We had a right laugh trying to pronounce the dishes but all I can remember about mine was that it had nuts and milk in.
Afterwards I had my first pint in a beer garden! It was so nice and the weather was perfect.


Day 2. We had a walk around town and went down Charity shop lane where I bought the beauties in this post and popped into the most adorable shop Daisy Taylors in this post.
We ended up going to another beer garden :) 
This is the day I fell in love with Barry M!


Then on night 2 we hit York town.
 REFLEX! 
Sadly this time we didn't encounter half naked men on a revolving dance floor. 
Had a brilliant night, then woke up like this.


5,4,3,2,1 - *Hugging the toilet*

Day 3. Me and Yas shopped some more and walked around the wall! Half of the city, whilst having a little break beside the river we got attacked by geese. We calmly got up and walked away, thankfully I did not panic.


I love this photo of Yas! <3

Were all going on a summer holiday, NOT.

Hey sweeties!
How are you all?
 Once again I'm sick of the heavy rain. I love rain, but only if  it's lightly as my hair goes curly :) And it's perfect at night just hearing the drops on the window falling asleep, but I don't want to look like a bloody drown rat!

Every time I look on my Facebook home page I see status's like
'See ya toon! Off to Magaa' or 'Zante baby!'.
I want to cry.
I'm not going on holiday this year.
I know I'm lucky to have been away most years unlike people I know, but I need a holiday just to escape, relax in the sun.

As Kate has recently moved into her new house, me and Yasmin has decided to go down for a couple of days which will be lovely. Just having a few days away with my two best friends, I can't wait.

Well, I've bought a few bits over the past week which are;
                       
Daisy Print leggings, Asda £8
Polka Dot, Asda £6
Scarf Print Sun Dress, New Look £3. 


I went to the pictures to see Snow White and the Huntsman with Kate and Chloe who talked all the way through it no suprise there :) I should know better than to see a film with Kristen Stewart in that's not Twilight with Kate.
Kate, like many others say she can't act, I admit in Twilight her faces are the same, but in Snow White, I thought she was really good. 
Having Chris Hemsworth besides her did help ALOT but still it was a good movie!


I've mainly been baby sitting Charley who has started to walk!!! My Aunt showed me video of Charls holding her walker taking it across the room, I cried. Such a proud cousin! 



I also went to Amici's with Kate, her mam and mam's friend. Which is always a barrel of laughs! I normally have the same dish Lasange but this time I changed! I rarely change my order but I'm glad I did. Instead I had pasta Carbonara IT HAS BACON IN!! I could NEVER be a vegetarian.



I've been looking at wellies and shorts recently for Leeds and I'm so excited!
My dad said I can lend his army jacket and boots :D
It's all me and Chloe can talk about, (festival not the boots)
I've started to chat to people in the forums which is making me even more excited, 
only 40 days until I see the beautiful Florence and Hayley Williams!!
Me and Chloe are attempting to put our tent up later, I've never done this before, I'm glad she's a Brownie leader. 
If we can't do it, I'll find some handsome (big biceps) men to help some damsels in distress as I do NOT do instructions. They'll end up the camp fire.

Lastly I'm determined to get my Iphone this week, I'm sure I can upgrade it now, finally!
Then I can finally have Instagram, Temple Run and get this cover!
I'll also be joining this weeks blog hop, join here.

I'm singing in the rain, literally!

Hello sweeties! 
I took Charley to get her monthly weigh in, she is now 16lbs 10oz! Afterwards we went to Asda who had a huge sale on, I was so happy. 
I bought Union Jack dress which I've wanted since the Jubilee.
£18 down to £10,
Then a crown polka dot blouse
£12 down to £6. 
My mam is a bargain warrior in Primark! She found 2 cute winter skirts from £10 to £1!
 She also bought me a black pair of flossys to go with everything.


Thursday is a day I will never forget. I went to the fathers who is back from China yay! I had a migraine so I went home. BANG, BANG, CRASH. I thought the little rugrats next door were messing about with the bins, then suddenly my whole room went dark then it started to thunder and lightening! I was a tad scared of the noise. I was stuck on the bus coming from town for 3 hours which normally takes 30 minutes! What was worse is that I had to walk an hour in it.
Yet, all we can do is laugh.
Me and Kate sang singing in the rain, spinning our umbrellas around. Jumping in all the puddles we past. Until  we came across this.


Thank god, my Aunt has a tumble dryer.
People came to their doors to watch us plough through this, it was hilarious. I had to empty my shoes as they acted as buckets, unfortunately. Outside my Aunt's flat my cousin tried to jump out of her car over the puddle but slipped on her botty! 

A bientôt, M! xo

London's Calling!

Hello everyone!
Just a quick update once again I haven't been up to much (I lead such an exciting life, not) and I haven't been shopping for myself as I'm saving up for Leeds Festival (80 Days! Beyond excited!).
Kate (Best friend) has finished her first year of uni and is back home!! We went clubbing in Newcastle on Saturday for our friends birthday. I have to say from the bits I can remember it was a great night! Just 4 girls dancing and drinking, girly nights are always the best. We tried Rev's for the first time, which was a bit of a let down I think its better for lunch and a cocktail date rather than a typical northern Saturday night out. Instead of going home I crashed at Kates had breakfast and watched a few episodes BBC's episodes of Pride & Prejudice. I was so ill, I made a trip to the toilet a few times and visited puke city (not so pleasant). I was trying to remember what I had to drink and where, so I had to look at my hand (Bar stamps) to jog my memory. I was told later on a bodyguard man had asked me to get down from dancing on the chair :| 
It's a family trait.

I have an interview on Wednesday to be a Child minder/ Nanny so fingers crossed. If this goes well it'll be another step towards my dream job!

Tonight, my friend has a gig on at a local pub to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee. I love how we all come together at times like this.
 Long reign Queen Lizzy!!
I love this man!

I'm in this weeks blog hop where you can join in too. Just click here.

York!


Hello!
I've had such a great week!
Wednesday I travelled down to York to stay with Kate for the night. We watched the Hulk, Thor and Captain America which of course was preparation for The Avengers. Ahh!! On the Wednesday night we went to York drinking. It was AMAZING! We went to two bars Reflex and Mansion. Reflex was awesome its mainly 80's and 90's songs that get played which is just the best. They have a revolving dance floor and a bucking bronco! 
Half way into the night Mysterious Girl by Peter Andre came on and all the boys on the revolving bit whipped off their tops, its fair to say my jaw pretty much dropped we didn't know where to look. Me and Ashleigh just stood watching half naked men spin round :P Then later on still in Reflex the Baywatch theme tune came and the boys once again whipped off their tops and started to do press ups until the bouncers told them to stop spoil sporters :'( Next we moved on to Mansion Jack was pretty much drunk by this time which was hilarious. We didn't really spend that much time there but the bar men were rude. 
    


See how defined their back muscles are :P
 Oh and if you look to the top there was this girl who unzipped her dress and joined in!

Thursday WE WENT TO SEE THE AVENGERS! IT WAS BEYOND AMAZING BEST MOVIE EVER!
CHRIS EVANS, CHRIS HEMSWORTH WITH ROBERT DOWNEY JR AND SCARLETT JOHANSSON (Of course there is more actors and actresses in the film but they aren't as drop dead gorgeous as the ones mentioned.) 
IT WAS AMAZING SO FUNNY AND UNPREDICTABLE.

Friday I baby sat Charley again she is getting so big and her first tooth is coming through!

How cute are taxi drivers I know they want a tip but still?!
 On the way to the train station my driver was an older guy he was saying that I'd interrupted his breakfast which I jokingly apologised for as it was a bacon sandwich (I'd be furious if anyone stopped me from tucking into bacon it is magical like the holy grail).  Then getting to Kates house the driver was lovely he was asking if I was hitting town that night telling me where to go and that I got out, the first thing I said to Kate 'How hot was he?' which she laughed at, which I hope he never heard :) 
On the way back to Newcastle the driver talked about the rain it was really heavy, then we heard about Andres Breivik's trial on the radio which he proceeded to say that if he ruled England he'd castrate paedophiles and make the swallow their own testicles. How lovely :S

Nose pump!

Ahh, first of all I've just seen a NCIS episode (ray purposes to Ziva). THANK GOD she DIDN'T say YES, she BELONGS with TONY. Even hints that they are MEANT to be TOGETHER are in that episode.
 Tiny rant over.

Hello! 
Sorry I've not blogged for a few days a little bug decided to infiltrate my immune system! Damn flu! I kept sneezing and laughing each time I did as my Uncle kept shouting NOSE PUMP!
I hope you've all had a lovely Easter beside the fact of being ill mine was lovely, my mother bought me a Maltesers egg! And my Aunts generously gave me some money :D With it being Charley's first Easter everyone came round and watched some football.

Weekly round-up...

I've had a brilliant weekend! 


Friday -
Kate my best friend was upset as her Iphone needed fixed, so she went to the shop and they gave her a new one! So obviously she rang me straight away and asked if I was home. So theres me on my laptop thinking she wants me to do something for her then there was a knock at the door. I have 3 little annoying children (parents don't keep an eye on them so they run round wild) next door. So I put the phone down to answer the door thinking it was them. It was KATE! I was shocked and silent for about 5 mins just flapping my hands about I hadn't seen her since Christmas!
Friday night -
My friend Jamie had a gig at the 02 Academy, which is mentioned in my previous post. So Kate stayed to do my hair and helped me choose what outfit to put on.
Saturday -
All day with Kate <3
We watched the rugby all day, which was amazing as we are the biggest pervs ever! Gorgeous men running around in tight shorts for 80minutes - we were in heaven. We ordered an Indians, I had a Chicken Korma, my taste buds were not built for spices. Then watched Take Me Out and Lets Dance for Sport Relief.
We spent half of the night watching Eric, Kates cat stare at the candles. At one point we are positive he dipped his paw into the candle, we didn't see it happen if he did but Tracy, Kates mum said
"Can you smell singed cat?"
Sunday -
I asked Kate if she wanted to go to Asda as George had a sale on, but she didn't have enough money. So instead she came round mine and raided my wardrobe, we're the same size which is perfect! She only stayed for a little while as she had a train to catch back down to York. Then on my way to the quiz, my friend Chris pulled over and gave me a lift so I persuaded him to join us.
Monday -
Never trust public transport! I had an interview today for a nearby call centre. The bus I went for didn't turn up so I had to get a different one then transfer on to the metro, luckily I got there just in time. The interview seemed to go well. The people were lovely and the guy was hot which makes me want the job more. Fingers crossed I get it. Afterwards, I need a bit of retail therapy but as I'm low on cash I headed to the charity shop and boots!
After that I went to my Grandmas to watch the football. Newcastle United vs Arsenal we lost 2-1 :(

Also,
The other night I watched one of my favourite movies, Cruel Intentions. As I was watching it I realised it has the best soundtrack I've ever listened to.
Some of my favourites are;
Placebo - Every You Every Me.
Fat Boy Slim - Praise You.
Craig Armstrong - This Love.
Bare Jr - You Blew Me Off.

And my ultimate favourites;
The Verve - Bitter Sweet Symphony.
Counting Crows - Colourblind.

How was your weekend? Did you need any retail therapy?


A bientôt!
