Wedding Photos

Well, I started uploading these photos on 22nd June and here I am just looking at them now.

Has anyone else been having problems with Blogger?  I keep getting an Error 503 message when I try to sign in.

Anyway, back to the original purpose of this post.  My friend's wedding.

This was her wedding dress:


Yes, I know about the green!

And her chief bridesmaid (her daughter):


Her hair looked lovely:

and the reception was held in the beautiful village of Gittisham:






All in all, a lovely day was had and it already seems such a long time ago!

We are in the midst of many foreign students staying (Spanish one gone today, French one with us, Swiss one coming tomorrow) and preparing to have a lemonade stall at Charter Day next weekend to raise some more funds for Scary's trip to India.

'They' say the weather is turning nasty later, so I better get down town to buy some sausages.  I thought I would do big yorkshire puddings and fill them with onion gravy and sausages tonight.  A few new potatoes and yellow courgettes from the garden and I think we're set!

Harry Potter tomorrow!  Woo Hoo!  We're taking bets on whether Starfish is going to cry!

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like the 'C' Word!

Look what it was doing in Exeter today!


Sorry, no, it's not real!



Looked quite pretty though!

After a little light Christmas shopping (rude boxer shorts for tall boyfriend and running gear for The Runner), it was off to Harry Potter.  The cinema was packed but nobody tall sat in front of us thank goodness.

I can remember struggling to keep up with the plot in the book, and I did find it a bit long (mainly because I got cramp half way through!) but it was very good and it is rather irritating that we now have to wait until next July for the second part!  I think I might need to read the book again in the meantime!

Anyway, better go to my cold bed now.  The Runner is away tonight so will have to go and make a hot water bottle!

Looking forward to Harry

We've had beautiful weather here in Devon today and it was lovely walking through the town, wandering around the shops trying to get some inspiration for Christmas presents.

I'm not feeling at all Christmassy I'm afraid but I guess when we do the Christmas Craft Fair next week, that should wake me up a bit.  I've been making badges this afternoon in a small effort to get ready for next week.



Tomorrow we are going to do a little shopping in Exeter and then we are going to Harry Potter!

See you soon
