Curse the pig with the Flu!

This is kind of an "in-between" blog post to explain why I haven't been around, and also to explain my next blog post.

Firstly, I moved back to Chester. I love our house very much and it's almost finished in terms of unpacking and making the big bedroom into a study room.

Secondly, I had Swine Flu, which was fun to say the least. TamiFlu messed with my stomach, so once I came off that I started to get better.

Right, my next blog post is going to be something a big different, it's going to be more of a short creative writing piece. I'll be honest, I'm mainly doing this because I'm bored, but it's inspired by a photo I took of my favourite type of animal at the weekend :) I'm going to put myself into the head of the giraffe and write away. If it works, I might do it more often, taking the "Observation" part of "Observation Station" a step further.

Keep your eyes peeled, should be up soon :)

Moving house is pretty awful!

Moving house is supposed to be one of the most stressful things you can do, and I think I can vouch for that! Ok, so I'm only a student moving out, but the way things work out, I have to put my stuff in storage, before staying in Ireland over the summer, and it's hard work.

There's so much to think about. I have a list as long as two arms, and I'm not even half way there! Silly things that are easy to forget like informing gas/telephone companies, redirecting mail and blogging about it!

I move all my stuff on Saturday, and sleep in an empty house before leaving on the ferry on Sunday. Can't wait for it all to just be done!

Anyway, I had to pack my poor teddy bears away today...they weren't too pleased, and Donkey looked particularly hard done by.


Had a quick break this weekend in London. Stayed with my Mum in Kent, and went to London with my boyfriend to see the sights. It doesn't matter how many times I see them, I love them. Also saw a very strange street act, which involved a person with their head in a flower pot...see for yourself...


Apologies to those of you who will have nightmares after seeing that!
