Faskally 24/10/2008

Due to unforseen circumstances I couldnt go with Linda but really wanted to go as I loved it last year! my friend Fiona managed to get last minute tickets for the 24th but at 9pm! anyways we went and had a great time,despite the heavy rain it was still good we just went prepared in our wellies. the theme this year was a journey through space I was a little disapointed as after watching the 530 show on ITV they did a coverage there and showed us a space ship coming out of the water which never happened. never mind I also felt there was more to see last year and had wee fountains coming out of the wee lake where this year they never.

my friend was so amazed at our glow stick we get to go round the forest! we were just mad happy girlies no wonder my partner gets a headache when me and fiona get together we never shut up :)

I think the Aliens got to pauls head as he was photographing them but trying to tell me they were real i dont think so

thanks Fiona for getting the tickets x

QE2 on her final destination before she retires 7th Oct 08

The QE2 came back to South Queensferry On Tuesday 7Th October 2008, There was A fly past from the Raf but due to low cloud cover and very grey skies we heard them but never seen them, The Tugs Had done a display "the dancing tugs" which was basically water coming from the tugs! There was also meant to have been Fireworks but assume they didnt set them off due to the weather, She did a farewell salute and of she went back to Southampton before she retires as a floating hotel in Dubai.

Blackpool 3-6th October 2008

My Mum and I had gone to Blackpool for the weekend
I hadn't been in about 10 years, but wasn't that suprised when nothing had changed! well only the fact that I never came home with a huge tacky bag full of junk like i did when I was a child! even my mum was shocked.
The sea appeared raging and my Mum was petrified to go on the pier (she not very good with water being underneath her) but I still went on with me camera and took pictures.
Despite the rain and strong winds it didn't stop us getting out and about we must have been mad but never mind, we met my Mum's friends! and then one of my oldest and dearest school friends which was great to catch up,even if he hadnt changed and stole my hat,
amazing on the sunday in the change in the weather you would think it was summer!I even went on the big wheel

god knows why when im petrified of heights but didnt want to show fear in front of my mums friends, i got scared when the wind started blowing our basket and all i could think of was the cold deep sea below.I did take some images from the top! as i didnt have to move i took the pics

Feed the ducks!

my friend and I went up to Callander for a girlie drive and lunch and afternoon of feeding the ducks!
We had ball and enjoyed such a lovely lunch I want to go back for cheesecake!it was so yummy
I fell in love with the local chippy sign god knows why but we were tourists for the day



we also went to see the boy in the striped pyjamas, all I can say is wow! but take your tissues

cinema again

My friend Sally and I went to the film The duchess if you like your period dramas you would probably like this.................... we certianly did, and now Sally all excited as she wants to see the new Richard Gere film hes not changed well doesnt appear to have changed.


Also this week I went to se ethe flats in sighthill Edinburgh being blown up due to a new housing development happening and there tearing down a few old flats and making new ones, this is an experiience I wont forget in A hurry, the dynamite was that loud it made me jump but amazing to watch.

the start of my busy social life!!!

Saturday 13th seen me at Angelas crop in stone house, i managed 3 pages and the tag challenge set by Angela, i came home at 1930 as i was so shattered at not sleeping for nights before!

Paul my partner was at Leuchars Air show so he had pinched my camera for the day!

I came home to find Damien our newest pet had passed away, due to what they call a reptile virus poor wee mite we only had him a month but hopefully he resting in peace in the plant pot beside my bearded dragon that passed away last october!

Last Wednesday was meant to be the start of camera club, but I had a visitor at last minute, a friend I hadn't seen in months so was chuffed and spent good few hours catching up on missed chats, its so nice to catch up with old friends.

After loosing everything on the laptop after a windows live update went wrong, and currupted not only mine but hundreds of peoples acer laptops, One of my friends had posed for me again in the grave yard in Waterloo Place Edinburgh,
were planning on a studio shot, when I eventually get Time to my self which will probably not be till after christmas now the way things are going!

Its been a while...............................

well certainly has been a while since posting!

we have an new addition to the family, paul reckons he couldn't resist him, altough im not sure of him but am sure he will grow on me he is just so tiny, he is a horned lizard and rare! Paul and his sister has named him Damien,
as u can tell he already been out and had his pics taken
I was at the edinburgh festival fireworks on sunday 31st August despite the fact it was heaving it was good, i really enjoyed the music but have decided princess street isnt the answer for the best pictures as the fireworks are let off from the front of the castle so we get loads of effect from the smoke but still pretty good effects
have to re think my plan for next year
