I love cats & dogs so I thought I’d share with you a website that somebody has put up about his cat & dachshund.

Ok big bounding puppy time but I’m so pleased with myself and what I managed to do.  To here’s my ta-da! moment:

 

 

Now I’m guessing there’s a fair few of you out there that can do this but I only found out about it last week and my mind has been blown!  I can see myself loosing many many hours fixing up old family photos.

The lady in the photo is my grandaunt but I’m not 100% as I’ve a choice of 2 so I’ll have to ring my mam and ask her.  But yes, I’m sooo pleased with myself.

If you see this more than once I do apologise but it’s going to be cross posted EVERYWHERE 🙂

This is something I love to watch every New Years Day and this year is no exception.

Right now we are waiting for the Blue Danube & the Radetzky March 🙂

We were looking at the concert hall where it is taking place and it really does look like a chocolate box all golden and flowers.  In the audience I’ve spotted Julie Andrews – I’m jealous!  You know how some people would love to go to Wimbledon well I’d love to go to this concert!  Although I’m not too sure I could sit still for the entire thing – right now I’m prancing around my living room pretending to waltz and polka – all of those weekends spent watching Strictly Come Dancing have not been wasted 😉

The Danube has started with shots of the river and SNOW – it looks so magical – it all combines to make the heart swell.

I don’t know if you’ve noticed but I do like bad weather, whether it’s wind or rain, hail or snow I love love love it.

So here is a photographer that has captured some fabulous miserable weather and it all really does look absolutely fabulous – anyway his name is Christophe Jacrot and he has some beautiful photos of Paris & New York.

Here’s an example to tempt you –

Heston Blementhal’s Perfect Christmas

MsWalshLeave a comment

I’m not treading a fine line on is it too early to mention Christmas?  For me it’s never too early 🙂

I saw this a few years ago and there was another one made subsequently but for me this is the one to watch – it’s pure magic!

I’ve been trying to embed it but am not having any luck so please click the link and start to feel the spirit of Christmas even if you don’t tell anybody 😉

Weight

MsWalsh1 Comment

Well right now my weight is making me smile!

Yes I know it’s madness but I’m now down 1 whole stone – 14lbs!!  The plan has been to take it slowly and slow it has been – I decided in May to do it and it would seem, do it, I am!  It makes such a difference from watching the numbers going up and up.

So in May I was 14st 4lbs

In October I’m 13st 4lbs!

I’m soooo chuffed with myself but watch out for the next stone drop sometime between Jan. & April 🙂

BTW we're hitting the Autumn one of my favourite seasons so expect a few updates!
