DRINKING WITH THE GIRLS

I watched a rather funky but interesting documentary yesterday on BBC3. 
It's name was Drinking with the girls. Did anybody other then myself enjoy it? The show was based around recent news reports that woman in the UK are the worse binge drinkers compared to any other country. It's said that as binge drinking numbers are falling in men, there rising in women. 

I myself used to love a good binge drinking session on a Friday night out with the girls, As I have two children now they don't come by very often. I now hardly ever drink, I can't remember the last time a glass of wine touched my lips. HONEST!

Well Cherry the 27 year old presenter, had to go through 7 stages of drinking ( that meant 7 nights out :) ) There was the under agers, the pullers ( woman in there 20's ) the students, the mums, the 30's, mid lifers, and lastly the grannies. Well lets just say that Cherry was pissed a lot of the time. The documentary was funny but yes it also highlighted many of the problems alcohol brings. The under age girls were a mess and London's ambulance drivers were extremely busy.

On the whole a fab documentary. Have a hour then check it out one BBC iplayer

T-SHIRTS 4 AUTISM

Is my life crazy ? Well it's as crazy as any other mother of two, a hubby and dog!

Am I complaining ? Hell no! I wouldn't have my life any other way I just love it! The Kids are back at school tomorrow after this long two week Easter break. It's been eventful that's for sure, but I'm looking forward to the break ( What mummy isn't ? ) So just what am I going to do with all my time? Design T-shits for autism that's what. This is something that I have been planning for sometime now but just can't seem to find the time! As most know autism is something very close to my heart ( My son has Asperger's ) and as most already know I love art, So lets put the two together and we have ourselves a fantastic idea. 

I'm hopping to have my designs completed within the next few weeks or so and I can't wait to set the wheels in motion. I have a few options on who I will use to help me with my product, my favorite being Zazzle ( A top rated site within the net ) I plan to design 10 ideas and go on to use four or five. I really can't wait. If anybody Is interested in my designs stay tuned as I will post my finished and chosen designs onto the blog and you can all give your opinions.

THE BEST BIRTHDAY

NO I WAS NOT OUT PARTYING, WHO DOES ON A MONDAY NIGHT ? I WAS DOING SOMETHING WAY BETTER!

Yes I was doing sod all, but spending time with my family and children, who gave me a wonderful day. The children gave me some fantastic home made cards. Little man got me a little plant with purple Flowers. He got this all by himself why out with my sister on Sunday. Alice gave me the cutest bear, and later that day they both greeted me with some stunning red roses. Hubby got me a stunning diamond bracelet and my mum gave me some diamond earrings, a to die for over sized handbag and some lush bath and body products. My dad visited with treats and on the whole it was a fantastic, wonderful day. 

SO THANK YOU EVERYONE IT REALLY WAS A WONDERFUL DAY.

The app is called Mbox mail and for a limited time it's half price £2.99.
