It's finally happened!!

So it's happened, my holiday countdown in now into double digits. It's officially all paid off all we have to do now is pay off our Universal tickets and Discovery cove which should be done by the end of August! We got a great deal on Attraction Tickets Direct, where you can put a £10 deposit per person and that secures them as long as you pay them off 28 days before you. They also throw in a few goodies as well, like an underwater camera and vouchers etc. So if you're shopping around on where to get your tickets for Orlando I highly recommend this company.

Even though it's 99 days it'll fly by!

Here's my cute little countdown with a photo of Hogwarts Castle which I took back in 2013. The app is dream days.

Anyway enough about the holiday as i'm sure i'll be spamming the blog in the next coming months. Recently i've been lacking motivation on the weight loss front, however yesterday i've decided to get back on the wagon and focus on losing 2 stone before Florida which = a 2lb weight loss each week, which is very do able if your mind is in the right place!

So last night I cooked from scratch a Spaghetti Bolognese a recipe from Slimming world which is free you just add sins for any cheese you may have. I also made some home made garlic bread to go on the side, I however only at the non cheesy slice. It was so tasty and filling and I even had leftovers, which I shall be having for my lunch!

You can find the recipe on the Slimming World website, it's easy to follow and make!

 And here is a lovely before and during photo, seeing the first photo is something I never want to go back to. That's the photo that started the weight loss journey, I'll stop when I can say yeah I feel comfortable in my own skin which will be soon! Just remember results don't happen overnight. 

Joint Birthday Celebrations & Glastonbury

So this blog post is way overdue, but I've been finishing off my NVQ! Working and I went off to Glastonbury Festival. 

So first off I've finally turned 22, me and one of my good friends Erin our birthday's our like days apart. So it made sense to do joint celebrations, my lovely auntie did my hair and did my lashes for me! So we started the night at mine and had some pre drinks after we headed into Plymouth, was a really good night and it was lovely to spend it with my best friends! 

 

So after the weekend of birthday celebrations it was time to pack my festival back pack, and head to Glastonbury Festival. We left Plymouth just after 4pm got into Glastonbury town centre just before 7pm, we had our annual Chinese meal before heading to the car park. Luckily for us as we headed to the car park it was open early at 8pm, so we got a space pretty close to the entrance! 

Wednesday morning arrived it was time to climb that hill to the gate, I have never ever been in such and unorganised mess to get into a festival. People were pushing barriers  down and cutting in so my festival was already off to a bad start! Then Jim got a tent without an inbuilt groundsheet, so come the end of the festival I could of filmed another Bugs life film.

Again this year I spent a lot of time in the theatre and cabaret field! I ventured to Shangri-la, never again. The crowd control was atrocious, I don't expect it to be military crowd control but I do expect some crowd control. It was just bodies everywhere, if i'm honest Glastonbury Festival has became very commercialised and people go there for all the wrong reasons. I did see some great acts, but unfortunately I spent most of the time worrying about whether my bag was going to get nicked, or having to keep battling through people. The majority of the time I saw people doing drugs, to the extent there was a parent with a toddler on their mothers shoulders and she was taking mushrooms... It seemed to me the Police were very blind to this, unfortunately I doubt I will be heading to the Festival again. Unless they clamp down on the drug issues. 

 

I had great company but the bad outweighs the good, next year i'll just head away! So sorry Glastonbury you just don't do it no more for me.

However here's so positivity It's nearly in double digits for my holiday countdown! We've got a little left to pay and we're done, just a few tickets to buy and we're set. I'm so excited just to get away from England and have me time! So from now on expect a few more blog post's from me. 

Unit next time....
