there will come a time you'll see.

wow. i'm really not doing so well updating this thing.

i went to nana's for a long weekend and discovered gone are the days when i can steal the neighbour's wifi.

i didn't have the heart to tell nana the truth in fear she'd blab to said neighbours. ha. you don't know my nana. she innocently would let it slip. she thinks my laptop is just not working properly. it's better this way. trust me.

i'm a creature of habit when i stay at nana's. saturday mornings you can find us in leek for market day. there's something ridiculous, like thirteen charity shops within the small market square and we wander in and out until something catches either one of our eyes. it's usually me. i found an ornate brass antique mirror for three pounds. i've already decided it's going to be painted white and hang in my bedroom.

i giggled when i saw these. it reminds me of a butcher's shop in ludlow when my uncle, and his wife and my cousin and i went for the christmas medieval fayre at ludlow castle five years ago. covering the entire outside of the shop window were these hanging dead birds. i remember it being grotesquely beautiful.

here's nana in the market square.

in other news, i weighed myself using nana's scales. the grand total of weight lost is now, drum roll please...eighty pounds. i celebrated with fish & chips with nana and later on in the evening, dinner with homemade chocolate fudge cheesecake with my aunt and cousin.


oh yes please.


tomorrow i'll post the non-blackberry photos. i promise.
