Stu's sister is a hairdresser, and this is what he got when he said he wanted all his head graded. Brilliant!

At the moment I'm trying to make my dads 50th birthday present - a photo book with a timeline of all his life in pictures. I have piles of photos everywhere!

I went to the driving range today for the first time in my life. Unlike most sports, I wasn't actually that bad to begin with! Definitly want to go again.

It was my Nana's birthday today so I baked her a cake! I'm getting a bit neater but it still looks like a 5 year old made bits of it!

After our mortgage appointment (we're buying a house!!), we went back to the car to find this right next to us! This is/was Mansfield brewery, which they've started demolishing now. We watched it for a while and took a few photos.

At Alton Towers, where it rained pretty much all day! Queueing for Spinball Whizzer which is awesome.

Bean's humble new abode! If I was a hamster I'd think it was awesome.

I added a new bit to Bean's cage last night, so I took the entire thing to pieces and scrubbed it all out. He kept trying to evade capture, and in this picture he's mocking my slow speed at getting him!

In the pub, quizzing it up. We got 29 out of 60. Not brilliant!

I forgot to take any pictures of the exciting things we did today! Went to view another house this morning, but it was a little small unfortunately. Watched four films while making an awesome (if not exciting...) filing system!

I drove my mum and brother to Cambridge today so Peter could look round the uni and see what he thought to the campuses. It was so beautiful! My mum and I spent most of the day wandering round little markets and took a walk by the river. It seemed like a really nice place, and the university buildings were beautiful. And it was his birthday!

I made a cake for my brother's 17th birthday! I cannot believe he is growing up. I put the penguins on because I thought they looked like Tux.

Tonight we went over to David's house for a BBQ, and we played with his little doggies! We all seem to have developed different names for them. I'm pretty sure I called this one Cookie or Coco-Pop?

A little boring, but I had a pretty lazy day! I played a little bit of magnetic darts on my own like a loser.

I find this picture really hard to look at.

27-06-2008

This is kind of cheating. I didn't take this picture, but I completely forgot to take any myself, and I still wanted to have a picture on my 365. Obviously this is me and Stu dressed up ready for "It's A Knockout!", just before we went outside and got ridiculously soaking and sunburned. Fun!

I also managed to sunburn my whiskers onto my face for the next day.

Thursday, 26 June 2008

26-06-2008

Oh dear... Stuart made this costume for tomorrow at work. We've got an "It's A Knockout" type thing happening, where we have to run round and generally make fools out of ourselves and get soaking. I think I'm probably going to dress up too, but I'm not sure what as yet!

Oh, and for people who haven't seen the advert (where have you been!!??) he's dressed as one of the 118 118 guys. Google it

We went bowling again, to give me more chance on my 43 things goal to break 100. I ended up with 60-something twice, so at least I got better than last time!

At work in the evening on my own.

A lazy Sunday morning, playing Wii and cooking pancakes. I put syrup and sugar in mine, then rolled it up and put syrup on top. The most unhealthy breakfast in the world!

I didn't even mean to catch this, but I'm glad I did.

I decided it might be fun to move my head really quickly and take a picture and see what happens. This is what happens!

Today I tried to give blood for the first time. Tried being the main word in this! Basically I nearly passed out after I'd been giving blood for 5 or 10 minutes and I just felt a bit silly.

I'd really like to try again though. I wrote more about it here - www.43things.com/people/progress/elizabethevenstar/10769068

I won a bear at work today!! I entered some competition for Leukemia Research where we had to pay 50p to name a bear. I chose Milly, and won. Although I may change her name now, as everyone at work thinks she looks like a boy.

This is me, being vain in the bathroom. Today was the first day in a long time that I didn't straighten my hair, so I thought I'd document it.

After spending the day at my parents for Father's Day, I went to the pub quiz with some of Stu's friends. Our team name was "Something About Bears" so JonP drew this lovely picture of a bear, with an umbrella, skipping. Maybe I added the skipping rope? I can't remember.

Went shopping into Nottingham, and stopped at The Social for an hour or two, although we were both drinking Pepsi. Talked about exciting things!

Stu received this in the post today. It's a document containing information about the storming of the Iranian Embassy by the SAS in 1980. He ordered it from the government to exercise his right to freedom of information! I was just impressed that it said SECRET on the front!

This is really creepy! My mum works in a school and they've given the staff hand puppets. This one's apparently called Brenda, but I'm not quite sure why TBH.

This is kind of cheating, but I liked this image better than any of the others from that day. This was taken by Stuart, and it's me retouching my make up. The desk's not mine, mine's loads tidier :P

Both my sets of flowers are dying, so I combined them to make one alive bunch. They've lasted ages, maybe two weeks now? They really brighten the house up anyway.

I went on a display course to Lincoln today with my work. It was quite funny, and met a few interesting people. We had a walk round the campus beforehand and found a "peace garden" just hidden behind a building! It was really cool, I think our college should have one!

It was my Grandads 68th birthday, so we all went round there for food and sat out in the garden. It was really nice having everyone together to chat and catch up on everything!

This is me with one of my baby brothers, who is now 17!

Stuart ordered Chinese food and this was in my fortune cookie. I wonder what it means? We'd been watching Lost all evening and I was utterly convinced that my numbers would be 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, 42.

Thursday, 5 June 2008

My baby brother, who isn't really a baby anymore. He applied for his provisional driving license today. This is weird. I'm not sure I want him / either of them to grow up!

Bowling. One of the games I scored 33. The other, I got two strikes in a row. This doesn't make any sense! I added a new goal to my 43 things, break 100 in bowling!

After having a bit of a mad tidy up session today, I put some bits and pieces on the window sill (cill?? Neither look right.) and thought they looked quite pretty. The stone, shell and sand are all from yesterday.

Today we went to Hunstanton for the day to try and makes the bestof the beautiful weather. We got there in about 2 and a half hours, which wasn't too bad.

Had a wander round, played some pirate mini golf (we won 1 game each, but my win was more impressive :P), and had standard beach food - donuts and fizzy pop.

Waiting to pick up my brothers from a Public Enemy gig in Nottingham. I thought the building kind of looked like a smiling robot? Maybe that's just me...

Today I dyed my (now short) hair red, just using a box dye. It's pretty red, but I also think it will probably fade very quickly. I would love to have bright red hair all the time, but it's so difficult! I'm determined though.

My little hamster - Bean. I'm suprised he's not appeared on here yet to be honest! Although he hates having his picture taken, but it's probably a bit scary for him.

Friday, 23 May 2008

23-05-2008

The only picture I have from today - to remind me to buy some of this. I had all my hair chopped today, but somehow forgot to take any pictures!

A few days ago we went to B&Q and bought some lilies for the garden. They're the first plants I've ever bought and I feel strangly proud of them! We got these, some white ones, and some yellow ones. The colours are beautiful and really brighten up the, otherwise bleak, concrete garden.
