A long weekend in Norfolk: Wells-Next-The-Sea

I was hoping to put some Holga photos on here today as I got them developed yesterday and they look so pretty but I don't have access working scanner... so it will have to wait.

Instead I've been playing around with the photos off my (amazing camera) phone and Rollip - another website that creates fake polaroids. I love it!! I know I could just edit them in photoshop myself but where's the fun in that?

There were so many ladybirds on the beach - at one point I had one on my hand and my leg. I had to rescue the one in the photo as it fell on its back. I wish I was back at the beach now and the weather was still as lovely.

p.s. I know I take lots of photos of the dog when I'm at home but he is so cute

and I might not see him now until December...

A long weekend in Norfolk: Norwich

I can't believe the bank holiday weekend is over already! We had such a great time - the weather was gorgeous and I managed to take two rolls of photos with Helga. I just need to get them developed now, I can't wait to see them.

Here are some of the digital photos from around Norwich. Even though I lived near there for over 10 years it was so much fun taking someone who had never been there before to all the beautiful places and getting to play tourist for a bit!

Hello to all my new followers from over the weekend: Kathleen, Jennette, Rhianna, Queen of Nostalgia, It's Me Tori, Lindsay and Marion and Holiday Queen. Sorry that I haven't had a chance to look at any of your blogs yet - my reader is currently at over 800 posts to catch up with... argh! I wll definitely try to catch up as soon as possible though!

p.s. Elm Hill is one of the oldest streets in Norwich and was recently featured in Stardust! Very exciting!

The photos from the weekend...

Yesterday really was one of those days - everyone I talked to seemed to have bad news to tell me: my parents, my sister, one of my best friends... Luckily I didn't have any bad news to tell anyone but I don't really like hearing it.

Its a good thing that I found my phone cable safely tucked up next to our bed

as it could have turned out to be a terrible day...

Friday night we decided to have a spontaneous cheese, wine, olive and pie party and it was amazing! We brought a little too much food though and ended up eating cheese and biscuits all weekend... oops!

Saturday and Sunday were happy, lazy days - I got to eat an ice lolly on our front step (currently my favourite activity) and...

We managed to find another cheap second hand dance mat so now we can dance/mess around together! Yeay!!

So right now...

I'm feeling happily overwhelmed!
(phrase shamelessly stolen from here :D)

Its been a bit of a odd weekend - I felt so ill on Saturday that we hardly did anything. I did check the internet though (I'm weak) and I found that not only had I won a one-off parcel from Tea for Joy... but I had been given awards by Sunflares Plethora and A Chick Named Hermia (oh and I got one from Red Boots as well but that was a while ago and I totally forgot)

Thank you so much!!

Luckily due to a combination of such exciting news and lots of naps (I love naps) I felt much better on Sunday so we popped into Town. We had a cheeky McDonalds in order to get some free Cola glasses... how cute are they?

And I tortured myself by looking around Urban Outfitters but not actually buying anything... oops! I was sorely tempted by this Ice Invaders tray though.

And thats about it... I love lazy weekends!

p.s. Hello to my latest followers Jade, Kirsten (do you have blogs? The google friends connect thing is so annoying!) Rachel, Lissbeth, notRuairi and Designani! I'm hugely excited to have you here!!

p.p.s. You can tell its been a lazy weekend when the only photos you have are from McDonalds!
