Hello!

I'm back!

And so far, I'm feeling so relaxed and rested... Let's hope that lasts longer than a day. I'm so excited to be back, even though I really enjoyed a break from practically everything in my life, it's good to return to things and remember that I enjoy them.

Thank you so much to everyone who left a comment to see if I was ok - I'm sorry I can't go into more about the bad news - it's not really my news to share but I truly appreciate the comments and emails that I recieved, it really helped. I'm feeling much more able to deal with the news now even if I'm not feeling any better about the news itself and that's a step forward that I'm happy with.

I don't really know where to start now I'm back - I got some new cameras (eep, see one above), I took some photos, I saw a lot of Beatles related things, I played on the xbox (alot), I had a few lay ins, I watched Krufts and lots of films, I had a day in my PJ's, I caught up with some blog reading, I willed our daffodils in the garden to grow faster and I generally took it easy... oh and the highlight of my week was seeing Picasso's Weeping Woman - it was absolutely beautiful!!

I just noticed that I reached 650 followers, so please if you are new here (or you don't comment often, or you just want to...) say hi! I'd love to get to know you and check out your blogs! I'm still blown away that I have more than 10 followers, so thank you again to everyone who sticks around.

It's good to be back!
p.s. The rather lovely and beautiful Illy is having a giveaway of one of my prints on her blog, if you fancy winning one of my prints click here!

We love 35mm cameras here in blog land!

First, I need to announce the winner of my diana mini giveaway! I meant to do it on Monday but life got a little on top of me, so sorry for the delay.

The winner of the diana mini white from Lomography UK is

Well done Kathy!!

Now don't despair, I'm writing this post specifically to tell you that there are more 35mm camera giveaways in blog land right now!

First up, the lovely Elle from Diana Mini Love (you know I love her by now surely) is giving away a superheadz slim camera in gold!

Is it wrong that I want a gold one as well as my yellow one? I don't think so...

And... the gorgeous Lauren from Busy Bee Lauren is also giving away a diana mini white!

Amazing right?

A rather amazing giveaway!!

I love finding new blogs but I especially love when bloggers find me and lead me back to their amazing blogs!!

I've just recently started reading Laura's blog The Madness of Mundanity
but I am already smitten, here are few reasons why

Laura lives in London
(I heart london)
She works in a vintage camera shop
(oh my, I want to visit so bad)
She has just started a Vintage Camera Project, eep!
(I might borrow this idea with my cameras, brilliant!)
She has some amazing charity shop finds
and
she is holding a fabulous giveaway!!

I was hugely tempted to enter but really, I already have a lomolitos camera and some lomography photo clips and we're not eating sugar so no Haribo for me... but I had to share it!
(the polaroid brooch is super cute though...)

And I also wanted to fill out the blanks, so here goes!

I always:
Oversleep
Skip breakfast
Kiss boyfriend goodbye
Cry at sad films (alot)

I sometimes:
Wear heels
Forget to take my glasses off when I fall asleep
don't text back
sing in the shower

I never:
wear skirts - I have the best intentions but it never happens
have warm hands or feet
remember to take my camera when I really should have brought it
stop getting excited about getting to go home.
