I've Planned My Big Escape

I've not told you about my planned big escape .

I adore travelling , I would just spend all the time in the world travelling if I could , I'm a seeker of travel and I always look at travel differently to other people I think . I've a romantic notion to travel which is quite odd as I've a practical soul that misbehaves . I'm off to Rome of course I'm going to take the family it's the last big Hurrah before the teen goes off to University ~ blows nose .

We are travelling with British airways from Heathrow ~ I love flying from Heathrow I'm always excited to fly from there , I'll let you into a little secret I'm petrified of flying ~ well the take off that is and maybe some of the flight depending on the turbulence levels.

Do you have some where you 've been longing to fly to ?


When ever I go someone where I view the place as an explorer , as if I am the first one to see the majesty of a place , to see the sights , the colours and the smells , I translate my assault upon my visual cortex in the pictures I take and the words I write , although I am not as lyrical as I wish I could be.

Striving to be better is part of travelling and part of ones self.

Last summer it was Amsterdam and Fuerventura , and 2015 it was Washington D.C

AWWWH travel how I love thee let me travel your ways .

Blog Commenting Does It Really Matter.

I don't think blog commenting matters as it did.

I admit I've been quite relaxed on the blog commenting front , but it's not blog adulation I'm seeking basking in the sunlight of comments . It's really about documenting how I feel on my blog , I share stuff my husband or son wouldn't share that's me .

And for me to feel relaxed and not beholden to commenting is a release.

That's not to say I won't comment on blogs , I certainly rt them.

What matters to me is me .

What matters is cake.

 

What matters is the cake is a #randomnactofkindness

What matters is the cake is a gift from a neighbour whose husband is poorly .

What matters is my husband was able to help the neighbour.

What's matters is life .

To Get Ahead Get A Hat By Rollie The Cat

Silly human bean putting me in a hat over Christmas , I mean honestly I'm not sure that red is even my colour but you have to work with what you've been given.

 

 

I've haven't been the same since they plonked this on my head as a kitten ....

 

You just can't get the staff nowadays ...

Sometimes you just have to express yourself through imperative dance ...

 

 

I think of myself a Thespian , I'm just waiting in my Oscar really , I'm the cat very version of Simon Callow .

I know I was overlooked in the New Years Honours but it will be my turn soon ..

 

I 'm preparing to audition to be a Bond villain cat I've nailed it don't you think ?!

 

Star Wars film not a problem , I can do that .
