Eeeee, this past couple of days have been interesting. Again, filling my time meaning I don’t have time I blog. Ho hum.
So yeah, yesterday I went and collected my two baby guinea pigs, or, as their more commonly known in this house : squeaky pigs. Ones ginger with a white stripe up her nose and across her tummy, the others got a black face, and a ginger and white body! They we're originally known as the nameless babies, but now, I feel they may be called Luna and Pixie. They spent all yesterday hiding out the way like little wimps in the cage next to my bed - they will go out side when there a little bigger, its too cold and wet for them right now! After spending all yesterday hiding out the way, they decided to wake me up at like 3:30 this morning play fighting and squealing at each other, and as I’d only had them 8 hours I didn’t realise what it was and I was no a happy bunny!
This morning, I awoke to more squeaking, and alas, it was the babies! After a quick feeding and watering of animals, humans, fish and all others in-between - including Black Bird and now her baby, and the frog that has taken up residence in a disused litter tray full of rain water in the garden, I set off on a magical trip to Light Water Valley with the old Music Centre. It was an interesting trip there...being on the baby bus, well, not a small bus, but a bus full of the young'uns, took me right back to my first year! Well, on the baby bus there I sat with Helen T and Megan, with the Troublesome Trio (Clare, Rach and Helen J) behind us, it was an amusing bus ride, which included us lot, with Jess and Alice joining Ian and Oscar in a rousing -strictly against Senior Strings code of conduct - sing along including renditions of such classics including: Ten Green Bottles, Yellow Submarine, Corellis Christmas Concerto, Grease Mega Mix, Britton’s Simple Symphony, Frère Jacque and Kookaburra Sits In The Old Gum Tree (plus many more attempted tunes) and Mrs Birds 'Allo 'Allo impression -saying things only ''v'once'' ya'know =] ... we eventually arrived at our long awaited (5 hour away *ahem* little kids) destination.
Us 'oldies' and Jamie - the wind band oldie- hung around together all day it was entertaining.... instead of rushing our dinners, we sat and played wink murder for over an hour! Some of us are nearly 19, but hey, we know how to have a good time! We only went on the Ultimate once, we're showing our age a bit these days - gone have the times Clare and I could jump off, run down the stairs and back the other side to get on the next train. The Sewer Rat didn’t seem as scary as it use to, and the new camel ride which replaced one of the other silly little rides I loved to go on was also fun fun fun, especially when it said 'Only One Adult Per Camel' and two rather large women squished themselves into one and the camel couldn’t go up!!! It made me chuckle to myself a fair few times when I looked over my shoulder.
The Swan pedelos were also rather amusing. Firstly, boys will be boys, Oscar Ian and Matthew T thought it would be funny to act like pirates and bang into us all the time whilst chucking sweets at us! (us being.... Me, Clare, Helen J and Jamie.) Secondly, the wind was a biatch and blew us every where apart from where we wanted to go. Thirdly, the said boys nearly ran aground - bless them and their manly navigating. And, Mr W asked me to be the 'responsible adult' on one of the swans with a group of littlies so that they didn’t have to miss their go as there weren’t enough adults to kiddiewinks!
The coach (baby bus) ride home was slightly less entertaining, with most people falling asleep, and a few bits of gossip being passed -not that I can say it on here- hehe.
When I got home it turns out that mums convinced that one of the baby girlies is a baby boy! It means that im gonna have to double check the sex of my animals in the morning... they've had far too much excitement for one day! A new tunnel to play in AND some cucumber!
On that note, im must go put my minagary to bed!
Nighty night guys! x

Breakdowns again!
Well, Iwas starting to write this blog yesterday, but, decided that my sleep was more important. Well, I say that, i went to bed early, but felt like crap so i didnt get that much sleep. Apart from decideing that i wasnt going to college today so i went back to bed for a few hours.
Yesterday was Clarebears last concert with Orchestra, after.... 9 years and .... 10 months maybe? She's left Music Center ... life wont be the same again! ='[ We ended up playing more music then i thought i knew, and the old blister on my finger gave me abit of gip, but, i got through it and when i woke up this morning it was gone! =O!!
Yesterday was also crap because 30mins after we got the car back, it broke down again! Im getting fed up of losing power on motorways and haveing Eddie Stobart Lorries a few inchs from joining us in the car. However i have become a dab hand at banging on the Hazard Warnings.
Today i've not really dont much worth blogging about because im boring... Having played my violin for an hour or so, my dear blister has come back! What a pain! I now feel even worse then i did this morning, and i just want to be better for tomorrow so i can get my Guniea Pigs...and so i can go to Light Water Valley on Saturday with the old orchestra!
On that note im gonna go back to my boring life!
Toodle ooo x
Oh and before i forget : WELL DONE KATIE =D xxx

Football, Fairs and Fit RAC men....
... ok, we can make that into 'RAC men', but hey I’ll come to that in a bit.
Yesterdays football match, as far as i can see, was a success. I think - I say I think because I wasn’t really paying that much attention to the game - that the score was 11 all, after 3 mini matches. Not bad for their first attempt at a game I don’t think. I was busy cooking John sausages sandwiches on my cheapo trangia...its not really a trangia, its just a trangia want to be, it was only a couple of quid, and you can tell. Anyways, i ended up picking part of it up with my bare hands ... a bit stupid seen as 30 seconds previous it had got a massive flame engulfing it. I now have a white blister on the end of my left index finger which is going to make my concert tomorrow night rather interesting seen as I can’t really play any notes involving a 1st finger! oh well, what will be will be.
Now, lets move swiftly onto the Fair of Liquorice - also known as Pontefract Liquorice Fair. Martin took me, and it was.... Different! I went to the Castle for the first time, which was good. But it was a bit of a let down content wise, and there were certain people who needed to be avoided. Back up in town, all the stalls were basically the same, and after a about 45mins we we're bored so came home. It was so much better when it was under the control of the Liquorice Fair committee people type thing and not WMDC, but hey, that’s only my own opinion. It just seemed so much different from when I preformed in it a few years ago, maybe as I’ve got older its worn off on me.
Right, now to the old RAC man. Well, he wasn’t that old, but that’s not the point. Dad and I happily set off to the opticians this morning, so we hopped onto the 62. The car didn’t want to go up the slip road, but dad got it there. 600meters along the motorway and we had to pull into the hard shoulder because of an ‘Engine Malfunction’ – or so the car told us. No other messages came up, so we carried on – again, at around 60mph the car juddered and stuff, so we pulled up again, and I got to dip the oil dippy stick with big wizzy lorries wizzing past me! We ended up having to call the RAC out, and it took AGES to get it sorted out, it even included a trip to Ferrybridge service station! - £2 for a fricking bottle of water! Robbing arses! We (when I say we, I mean dad) eventually got the car back to the garage, where its sitting now hopefully being mended.
On that note, im off to football training with the lads!
GO ME!

Bovril...
... is the most addictive drink in the world! It's all warm, and meaty and i don’t know... its just amazing! And, I’ve drunk like 5 cups of it in the last 3 days. That’s got to be better for me than the old Diet Coke, and Pepsi Max.
There’s a Black Bird that keeps hopping into the kitchen to eat the cats food! Hugo is either too stupid, or too lazy to chase the little thing out, so mum keeps going mad at it. That’s about as entertaining as life gets at the moment.
This afternoon, I‘m off to the old park again to embark on a 'Open for the Weekend' play scheme type thing! Oh how I love kids/teenagers! Tomorrow, I’m off to the park AGAIN! because my dear darling football team - Purston Panthers - have got their first match. I'll have to let you know how it goes.... not that any of you are that interested!
On that merry note, I’m off to get changed and put some better footwear on. Gaah! Blisters!
In a bit!

Music Centre Concert!
Well, here I am blogging twice in my first day. How sad am I?? ok, don’t answer that!
Concert was good, although I’m a bit gutted cause lots of my friendsis are leaving, just as they are at college, thus, I fear that my next year is going to be quite dull and boring. I may get lots of work done, but that’s not the point! - I'll also have lots of money cause I wont have anyone to go out with, but hey hoe! I'll just have to visit all my friends at university, well, if they want me... haha... or, I may have to go visit Martin *insert subtle hints here* :D
Right, so now I’ve got over my little 'I’m a loner, please be my friend' rant I think I’ll go back to my bottle of wine, I know its Rosé... but that’s about it... Mum got me it... for once! haha
Hmmm, maybe drinking wine isn’t good, it makes you feel all down and miserable!
Ahh well, on that note I’m off to finish my glass, maybe get another one.
Toodle pip kids!

Good Morning World!
Well, today is the start of my blogging adventure. This is mainly down to the one and only Mister Martin Heeley! I have no idea what to write about, and yes I am ramberling just as my sister said I would - great isn’t it!
I’m rather bored at the moment, I’m not in college cause they've all gone to Flamingo Land, and I have no lessons cause my teachers are poo! Therefore, I have a lovely day sat here doing nothing. Normally, I would enjoy it, but, I’ve been sat here for to long recently. Its got to the point where I feel that the computer chair has moulded to the shape of my body, even though its a tad uncomfortable!
This afternoon -well, later on today- im off to mend a store room door in a room in the local park! -that’s as interesting as my life is gonna get, then, after that, I have my end of term concert with the one and only Pontefract Music Centre! How fun!!
On that note, im gonna disappear!
Adios mon amies! x
