Last Week On Instagram: SS Great Britain Day Trip

So this weeks post is mostly photos from our day trip on Friday as not much else has really happened last week so I thought I would just share these photos.



1. SS Great Britain Day Trip
So last Friday I was lucky enough to have a flexi day off work and as it is the Summer holidays I was asked if I fancied a trip down to the SS Great Britain which if you don't know what this is then she is the first ever ship made of Iron which had a screw propeller engine. She was designed by Isambard Kingdon Brunel.

I haven't been here since I was 6 years old and after hearing about how much it had changed museum wise over the years I took the opportunity. It has definitely changed a lot with lots more interactive areas and life like modules on the lower decks to make it more realistic. Even more so that actually they included smells as well which were OK in some areas but not so where the lady was sea sick!

I am a massive history lover so it was great to look around the museum especially at the time line of events through her life but also putting it in to context among other things that happened during that time like when Coca Cola was launched and Alice in Wonderland was written. I just find all these things fascinating.

The kids had the most amazing time and really enjoyed exploring the ship maybe not the museum as much but they had a good time all the same. As it was so sunny and warm out we decided to take a trip on the ferry up and down the River Avon before getting off to go for an Ice Cream. I love spending time with my Nephews and Niece especially when we take them out on little trips and you can see them enjoying themselves.

Wow and here we are second week in to August already? I cannot believe how quick this year is flying by!


1. Cheeky Selfie - I love a cheeky selfie every now and then and my hair was on point that day so I just had to ;) was off to meet my girl for some cheeky cocktails and food.

2. Jack Daniels Kiss - 
This had to be one of the best cocktails I've ever had! Not only did it have popcorn and caramel on top but it had ice cream, baileys and Jack Daniels honey in it. This was actually from TGIFridays. They actually do really lovely cocktails and I didn't realise you could just go to they're bar to get them.

3. The Musketeers - 
I am absolutely gutted that after only 3 seasons they have decided to end the show and they didn't half end it with a bang but also in a way that they could come back to revisit it if they liked. I just don't know what I'm going to do not seeing Tom Burke on my screen every week!!!!

4. I Love Him - I hate smiling in photos its just not natural of me but I can't help it when I am with my partner he brings so much happiness in to my life and makes me extremely happy. We're quite lucky to have a nature reserve on our door step so when the weather is as nice as it was on Saturday taking a stroll through the forest is something we quite like to do.

5. Disney Tsum Tsum - All the way from Disneyland Paris with love from two of my Instagram friends aren't they beautiful?

6. American Treats - This is why I shouldn't be allowed in an American sweet shop or sweet shop of any kind! I just end up spending ridiculous amounts of money on food that lasts say 2 hours hahah! I think my favourites have to be the Air Heads and Milky Way Caramels <3

Last Week On Instagram

Happy Hump Day everyone! I am so glad its the middle of the week as its all down hill now till the weekend although I don't have any plans at this second its just great to relax. Last week was a really good one as we all got a bonus at work which meant my Disney Holiday has been paid off and its one less thing to worry about!


1./2. Wiltshire - So on Saturday my partner needed a lift up to Swindon so he could meet with a client that hes doing some design for so it meant I needed to drive on the motorway and that is something I haven't really done properly before. I was so proud of myself for actually doing it and It felt good after because I've finally done it and it wasn't as scary as I thought.

2. Picnic Lunch - After I took Joel to meet his client we decided we would pop to see my dad and his partner but he wasn't available but we still went to see her instead. It was such a lovely afternoon and she put on a proper spread so we could make our own sandwiches and salad which was lovely. She lives in a converted which made the setting even more nice.

4. Cake Date - Finally after a long few months me and my best friend Jemma finally met up and did some shopping. Obviously we can't not get cake its just something we do ;) It was lovely to see her and to catch up on everything after not seeing each other for a while.

4. Bates Motel - 
I have so many TV shows sat in my Netflix, Amazon and Now TV accounts that I have been meaning to watch and the other week I finally started Bates Motel and I am HOOKED! This has been in my watch list since season 1 appeared on there and now there is 3 plus the season that's just been on. I love the story line and all the cast especially Vera.

Last Week On Instagram

Bit of a delayed Last week post this week as I have been super busy at work for once which makes a change but its Friday now and nearly the weekend!


1. Day Off - So originally I was meant to have a 4 day weekend but I had to change one of my days of to the Wednesday as the plumber was coming which wasn't a bad thing because it meant I could have a nice chilled day of no house work or cleaning so I decided to catch up on my TV and read my favourite book!

2. Sisters 30th Birthday - Cannot believe my sister turned 30 its crazy how quick time is going at the moment. We all went for a lovely meal together and my cheeky two nephews were having fun on Snap Chat along with they're mum. Its nice when you can get everyone together under the same roof for a family meal.

3. Freak Shakes - I have been dying to try one of these shakes now since they made they're appearance in a cafe in Australia back in 2014. They then came out in the London which made me want to try one even more and to my surprise a cafe about 15 minuets away from my house started to do them win win!

I have to say they look amazing and it did taste great but I have to say the doughnut on top let it down, it tasted cheap and stale which ruined the shake. I would like to try another but maybe from one of the popular cafes in London.

4. WOAH Katy Dropped a New Tune - Damn my girl kept that quiet on Friday morning we all woke to the news that Katy had released a new single ahead of the Olympics which they have chosen to be the main song for the event which incredible. Only a few days after she posted a video about the song and about how she was sorry she had been absence from social media for while and basically told everyone she had been working on HER NEW ALBUM!!! And now I am totally fan girling and waiting for her next tour!!!!

5/6. Hyper Japan - Well you all know from my 2 previous posts which you can read here and here that I finally managed to go to Hyper Japan. I was so happy to go with my partner Joel it was a great day and we were lucky to have such amazing weather.

Here we are again and another week ahead although I am actually only working 3 days and have a 3 day weekend which is great. Really looking forward to Saturday as I am finally off to Hyper Japan in London for the weekend and after taking a better look at whats going on over the weekend its made me even more excited!


1. Monsters Inc Tsum Tsum - Now I know I said a while back that I was going to cut down on my collection well this was true but never happened especially when they announced a Monsters Inc collection my heart screamed! I have sold about 20 from my collection and only kept the ones I really want along with only buying ones from collections as well that I want rather than just buying the whole set.

2. July Yume Twins Box - So my 2nd Yume Twins box has arrived for July and I have to say I am more pleased with this one than the grand opening box. I love and have use for all of the items apart from 2 so not to bad this month. I have actually cancelled my subscription as I cannot afford to keep both on the go and I would rather have a snack subscription when I can eat everything than a box that may only have some useful items.

3./4./5. and 6. - Meeting Emma - On Saturday I was reunited with my beautiful best friend from up North as she was down in Bath visiting family for a few days so it made perfect sense to catch up. When she came to visit Bristol we planned to go to Bath to visit Sally Lunns but due to travel issued we didn't manage to so obviously this was a must do.

I am so glad we managed to get a table right away in Sally's before the queue started backing up down the street and we both went for a classic bun with Jam and cream and it was AMAZING! I could have eaten two halves rather than just the one. They are a very famous bun that you can only get at Sally Lunns.

We then went for a wonder around Bath taking a few photos on my Instax camera before meeting up with her family. I really wish we lived nearer to each other as I think we would hang out so much but hay woo until next time aye ;) Hopefully April next year just seems so long away.

Seriously? Where is time going at the moment? We are now in July already halfway through the year which is totally crazy!


1. Bye Bye Best Friend - I still don't think its still kicked in the fact that my best friend Ali isn't come back to work anymore as she has started a new job more closer to home which is great and I am so happy for her everything in her life is falling nicely in to place but I will miss her things are going to be quiet around here thats for sure.

2. Friday Night Movie Night - Oh look what movie I'm watching hehe of course if your spending the night alone a Disney movie is in order along with pizza and sweets what more could you want?

3. And the Red is back! - Finally got my hair cut again after 4 months which is the norm for me but dying it is a pain in the but and something I really need to keep on top off but I never do any who I am back Red and happy!

4. Date Night - I have become obsessed with these snap chat filters but its even more fun doing them with your friends. family and partners. So whilst we were waiting on friends to come bowling me and Joel had some fun and this was on of my favourites well there was one I liked more but Joel wouldn't be too impressed if I posted him looking like toast on here!

5. Chicken (we used pork) Penne Pasta 
I love the Tasty Facebook page they come up with some of the most amazing recipes and we have tried a fair few but I have to see this one is one of our favourites and we are going to make it again very soon actually using chicken. Its a simple meal just creme, tomatoes, spinach, bacon and a few other bits but made a very tasty meal.

6. Poke Hole Cake
Another recipe of the good old Tasty Facebook page and the reason its called a Poke Hole cake is because you poke holes in the cake then simply cover it with condensed milk, caramel and whipped cream. To finish you then crush pretzels and caramel on top.

1. Pocahontas Funko Pop - I love collecting Funko Pops as they're really cute and when I heard they were doing Pocahontas ones I was over the moon because she is my favourite Disney character. Don't they both look so cute? I wish they did a few more rather than just two as I would have loved to get John and a few others.

2. Yume Twins Box - I finally got my first Yume Twins box and you can read my review here

3. Me Before You Date Night - I finally went to see Me Before You at the cinema last week and boy what an emotional movie but at the same time it was a really lovely story and the on screen romance was spot on they looked perfect together. I love Emilia Clarke especially with brown hair and her amazing smile!

4. Splatoon - I got Fin the most amazing Splatoon Wii U controller cover I was sad to let it go actually I really want one myself!

5/6. Finlay's 8th Birthday - I cannot believe that my Nephew turned 8 on the weekend he is growing up so fast its crazy. They're all growing up so quick even little Ads is looking more and more like his big brother every week.

So the highlight of last week was obviously booking my 25th Birthday Disneyland Paris break away with my best friend Emma. I am so over the moon and cannot wait to go next year but I have my day trip to plan for yet!


1. Upcoming Events - So this year I haven't really got a lot going on bit of a quiet year for some reason but I have got Hyper Japan in 24 days which I am so excited about after missing well forgetting to book tickets every other year this time I finally have done it!!!! My Birthday is fast approaching which means only one thing that its Disneyland Paris for the day a few days after!!!

2. Writers Block - Really struggling with blog content at the moment. I do have two blog posts in the pipe line but most of the blog posts I want to write are based on my Disney day trip and Disney holiday so can't really post or write those till near the time. I'm sure something will crop up or maybe I'll take a break for a while over the summer? Have to see!

3. Orange is the new Black - I have been waiting for this since the last season came out and damn it is soooo good, there is so many new characters in this season which keeps it fresh and exciting. So far I am on episode 8 so about half way through the season. I said I wouldn't binge watch but I kinda can't help it!

4. I went in for Dory - Yup I've brought more after I said I wasn't really going to be collecting anymore! After getting Dory a few weeks ago I went on a hunt to find Nemo but after finding Nemo on my second attempt I came across the Jungle Book collection by Posh Paws and after seeing how cute they are in person I couldn't say NO!!!!

5. Sunday Movie Time - Well obviously after picking up these Tsum Tsum I was really in the mood to watch the movie and I have to say it is one of my favourites.

6. Relaxation Class - I love my Sunday relaxation sessions. I honestly didn't think I would still be going now after going for my free taster session I wasn't sure what to expect but I really enjoyed it and the way it made me feel after was amazing! I have been going for nearly a year now which is mad but it helps me feel positive and relaxed plus it helps me sleep loads better.

I'm so glad its Wednesday as its all down hill to the weekend from now woo! Don't really have any plans this weekend but something will crop up it always usually does but I would like to play some Sims as a new DLC came out last and I have barley had time to explore it!


1. Alice in Wonderland - As I was actually off Monday last week I decided I would get all cosy in  bed and rewatch Alice in Wonderland as on the Wednesday me and my best friend went to see Through The Looking Glass and it was AMAZING!!!! I preferred it so much more than the first it just seemed a lot better!

2. Sims 4 Dine Out - As mentioned above the long awaited TS4 Dine out was released, ever since this has been announced I have been eagerly been waiting for this to come out. I probably played for 3 hours so far and I have to say I prefer this so much more than running a shop. I'm thinking of maybe doing a review but who knows ;)

3. Tokyo Treat June Box - I won't bore you with anymore on this but you can read my review here ;)

4. New Pug Chopping Board - I love my Mum she knows how much I love stuff with pugs on and to go around to hers and to see she had picked me up this cute glass chopping board to go my cooker I was in love! Its just the cutest thing I've ever seen she also got me the mug <3

5. Bristol Zoo Work Summer Do - My work always has a summer do and this year we ended up going to Bristol Zoo for a buffet lunch, animal encounter and then did this high wire tree obstacle course. Luckily the weather stayed really nice just until we left when it decided to tip down with rain!!! We had the chance to go around the whole zoo as well which was great and lots of fun!

6. Fantastic Beasts and Where to find them - I have been eager to pick this book up for a while now and finally did on the weekend. I am so excited for the movie next year so I thought I may as well read the book so I know all the beasts that will mentioned in the movie!!!

Last Week On Instagram (Holiday Edition)

After 12 days of I am back on work boo hoo! Setting my alarm for 5;25am this morning sucked especially with how humid its been recently. Sleeping has been rather hard even when changing from a 13.5 to a 4.5 duvet its still HARD!!!

Anyway's as you know I've been away to Newquay down in Cornwall for a week with my family during the May school holidays so I thought I would do a Last Week on Instagram but a holiday edition maybe chucking in some other photos along the way.






We were so lucky to have the most perfect weather meaning that we were able to get out and about with the kids cause if it rained we would have been stuck on the camp site with not much else to do. The camp site its self was very good has lots of entertainment, places to eat, amusements and an amazing indoor pool with slides.

We ended up at the beach twice which was great even though we wish it was proper sand rather than a stony sand but the kids enjoyed it either way. We went to Newquay Zoo and Crealy adventure park as well which were both great days out for the kids.

On the Monday me and some of the group went to visit a National Trust house called Trerice House which is from the Elizabethan period once again it was the most beautiful day to look around the gardens and visit the house as each bits were from different eras as some of the end of the house was newly built. I love a good bit of History.

I had a lovely week away with my family it was a great laugh and lots of fun! No holiday now until next year which is a shame but will be worth the wait I'm sure!!!

This Week On Instagram So Far

Happy Bank Holiday weekend everyone! Now this post is a little early this week and this is only because I am actually off away for the week this evening only down to Newquay with the family to stay in a caravan but internet access is limited so I wont be posting whilst I'm away but I'll be sure to fill you in when I am back!

So far this week on Instagram;


1. Alice in Wonderland Socks - Ok So I LOVE Alice in Wonderland so when I popped in to Primark to look for some shorts and came across these really cute socks I just had to get them they were only £2.50 and they're so comfy!

2. Five Guys
On Monday my boyfriend and I attended the Overwatch live launch event at the cinema where they show you all the trailers and talk about how the game was made so we decided as we were both coming from work that we would grab a Five Guys. Five Guys has to be on of my favourite burgers but most of all I love the Freestyle Coke machine! This time I had Fanta Raspberry.

3. Cupcake Fresh Face Mask - I've just posted a review for this actually which you can see here!

4. New Clothes - With putting on a little extra weight I've been in desperate need of some new clothes well only trousers really but I managed to pick up these beauties for £12.99 from H&M

5. All Packed - As mentioned above I go away today and naughty me only packed last night but then ended up re packing as everything was getting in the way. I love my Happy Jackson Holiday Essentials that I brought from them last year along with my Alice and Wonderland Pjs ;) I always take a book when I go and this time after love Orange is the New Black on Netflix I had to pick up the book!

1. Sims Session - I don't think I really mention it enough on here but I am a massive Sims lover I've been playing since it first came out over 16 years ago. On Monday i was eagerly awaiting news of the new Sims Game Pack "Dine Out" which I am so excited to play!!!

2. Everyday is a Disney Day - Start of another week at work but Disney makes everything better!

3. Draco Came - Another thing I haven't really mentioned on my blog is that I collect Funko Pop Vinlys this is a new thing for me and I have only really started collecting in the last year or so but so was really chuffed when my favourite Draco finally came after pre ordering.

4. M&S is always a bad idea! - Yup M&S is just always a bad idea they has so many tasty products and are expensive as well but I have to recommend the White Chocolate shake it just tastes like pure melted chocolate I was in heaven!

5. Peaky Blinders - Why didn't I watch this when it was first on BBC 2? This show is amazing and I am hooked its a bit violent at times but it has a great cast and great story. I have just started watching Season 2 so hoping I can get all caught up and on to season 3 which is airing now.

6. Its so FLUFFY - Need I say no more? Totoro is just the cutest and bond to make any happy!
