GUY FAWLKS NITE

A welsh setting

A tranquil moment in London countryside


It is really quite amazing here at the moment. All nite for the past week firworks have been going off everywhere, loud & smelly but oh so pretty!
It's climaxed this weekend with firework displays & festivals & parties all over the place & it doesn't stop. We all walk down the street jumping in our skins as they're going off every second, doesn't matter how used you are to the noise it still gets me.
I have just found Alexandra Palace, close to our area, a huge palace donated to the public in the early 1900's, houses an ice rink, pub, palace rooms, & the BBC broadcasting station & many acres of parkland, it is really beautiful & a nice walk for moi to tackle.
We found a local Farmers Market which is fabulous, so our weekly food budget of 30 pounds has just jumped to 60 pnd, such yummy food & organic produce to keep me happy & healthy. Found a mushroom man with the most amazing different mushys that you never see in shops, so had to try some varieties & we're trying pheasant for the first time!(it was absolutely delicious!) The varieties of cheeses were fab so we grabed some goats & chilli, & then we found the organic chocolate stall, they had run out of chilli choc so we ended up with white raspberry, it's waiting for the taste test.
School is going well, I get French lessons weekly paid for & have just started reflexology weekly, given by the school & I now have a laptop from them, so can't complain.
Still waiting for Kyle to get a job, hope it's soon as things are getting desperate, & I'm getting very stoppy about it all.
It's starting to get very cold now, ice on the windscreen already & it's not even winter yet. Need to get some winter clothes as don't really have much, but I do have a good coat, that counts.
CCCHHHHEEEEESSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEEEE & chocolate for a happy day, Love to all from us XXX
