Party at the Palmyra // Warrington

Hello, hello, hello!

[i've been watching too much rupaul]

Ive been trying to write a catch up post on my ipad bcos i have a shit ton of photos on there

but blogger is being an asshole and i can't figure it out. 

While i'm working on it though here's a draft from last year,

october i think,

when i went home for a friends wedding.

This was one of those lazy warm nights,

surrounded by friends and family.

My sister's fiancee, 

[i wish there were a better word for that, it's annoying to say]

is in a band, Old Tow Quartet,

kind of country, 

but i'm shit with music genres, if it's good, it's good.

They've recently recorded an album,

[my other half is designing the artwork for it]

and it sounds, and is looking, pretty good.

If you're curious check them out 

HERE BITCHES

^-^

Back to the photos....

Despite Warrington being a bit of a hole in places,

[ooh controversial]

the buildings in town are stunning.

When you feel like crap and this is the best OOTD photo you can stomach.

Side note...

i love these boots!

They are my life i swear.

I found them in a vintage shop when i was about 17 and picked them up for £20.

Proper oxblood worn in docs.

Heaven.

I told my mum i'm going to get married in them

[she hates them, they're too 'clumpy' lol]

then i was like actually....

*cue happy relieved face from motherhen*

i need to find a pair in white anyway, i'll wear them.

We had some cute German friends and family staying,

hence the family outing.

Motherhen!

I love floors.

Seriously, lookit how pretty.

My father, ladies and gentlemen.

He is the ultimate poser and only last year i realised that it's from him 

my sister gets her extrovert and posey ways!

Me being a creeper from outside.
The bar is way too small for actual gigs, 

i stayed outside like a good wallflower.

Anyway,

sorry it's not a recent catch up.

Hope you enjoyed it regardless?!

If you're interested in the band their facebook is

here

I'm pretty sure there's more songs online.

Right....lets get this stupid blogger app sorted!

>>listening to: Haim<<

Still old.

So here it is, 

part two of my birthday treats.

I feel so lucky to have such amazing people in my life.

They all know me so well.

My sister and i are obsessed with the emperor's new groove,

we quote it to each other all the time.

LLAMA FAAACE.

I've recently got into reading comics, 

not superhero comics, 

there are others!!

I didn't know this, lol, felt well stupid when i discovered them,

i was enlightened.

Tank Girl is my hero, i love her,

have you seen the film?

Go watch it!

Another obsession.

Ace Ventura.

My boyfriend and i have so many heated discussions about which is better,

The first one, or the second one.

*ahem-when nature calls*

I want to marry Jim Carrey though. 

Seriously.

Send him my way.

So....i've realised that a lot of the things i am into are based on tv shows or films...

what does that say about me!?

Breaking bad pins are never a bad thing.

I love wood engraving and burning so think these are to die for.

TO DIE FOR.

My friend got me my own personal rocket,

so i can escape when i need to and immerse myself in the wonder that is the universe.

If you're not interested in my birthday haul then i'm sorry,

for me though, seeing what people got for their birthday or christmas is my favourite kind of post!

Mainly because i always discover new things,

new shops, new artists. 

Because i read blogs that interest me, i always find i connect to the person a little more

after seeing what they get from people who know them.

So...onto the big debate...

Ace Ventura or Ace Ventura:When Nature Calls?

AND WHY!?!?!? 

A couple of extras from my ipad...

Boyfriend thought it would be hilarious to get me a Tororo onesie.

Joke's on him because i'm never taking it off.

Also got a new head protector for summer,

my ice hockey team, Boston Bruins.

Welsh mountain zoo // Part two

Hey guys,

i am hella busy getting ready for a wedding weekend

plus i'm catching up with people in the uk

so i've not had much time to write :(

sadface!

I will make it all better with pictures of animals and a promise...

i have found a mascara dupe for benefit's they're real.

i promise you, it is amazing.

I'll tell you all about it!

See you later,

alligator!!

This could be a croc...i have no idea if i'm being honest,

he's cute though right!

>.<

Welsh Mountain Zoo // Part One

Children looks like it translates in Welsh to 'Plant'.

Oh how we lolled. 

Animal socks for an animal filled day.

These boots are new, from evans.

I have annoyingly wide feet.

These are especially cute and super super comfy.

I really hate heels, most things girly really,

but these are a pretty sweet compromise.

I wore them all day, walked a hell of a lot, no blisters or anything.

These are a win.

This little guy was the cutest.

All the other penguins were legging it after the bucket of fish,

this guy waited and slowly ambled along...

until the bucket came to him.

Haaa, genius.

I love the Welsh language!

How cute is leopard?!

Playing with the zoom on the camera.

This is Rhos on Sea,

familiarise yourself with that rocky jetty...

It was so tempting to touch these guys.

IT'S SO FLUFFY I COULD DIE!

Every time i go back to the UK i try and do something fun, 

top of the list is always a trip to the zoo,

or Conwy.

I only got around to the mountain zoo last trip,

so when i am back in a couple of weeks i'm heading for Conwy.

Fish and chips on the harbour i think.
