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.

Stuart is going to hate me for posting this.

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.

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.

Haribo Tangfastics are dreamy. But they make me pull ridiculous faces! I got these out the vending machine at work today and thought I'd take a photo before I inhaled them all.

This is the only photo I have from this day and it's pretty pants. Taken with a camera phone that wasn't even mine! We went out into Nottingham for Dave's birthday and I took a tiny inpractical bag with no room at all for a camera. Obviously it's a picture of Stu, looking like he's trying to strangle himself.

This isn't a great picture, but this is us at the back, waiting for The Prodigy! I was hoping to get some awesome pictures of them, but by the time they came on (12.30) I’d taken my bag back to the car as it weighed a ton and the place was crowded. I took a few camera phone pictures they were all very blurry and/or had hands in the way.

None the less, awesome gig. Especially since we got the tickets for free - Thanks Gordon!

Winning at Solitaire on my new phone was probably one of the most exciting things to happen today - that's not particularly great!

I found this on the desk in the library. I didn't make it, but I just thought it was really sweet. I have a hidden love for octopuses (I always think that word sounds wrong, but at least according to Wikpedia it's okay!) so my hidden find made me happy.

Walking back to my car on the way home from work. All the trees were losing their blossom and it smelled so sweet and just looked like summer.

My mum gave me this ring, which she bought to wear as a sort of engagement ring, but it doesn't go with her new wedding ring. It's a bit odd, but I really like it.

My baby brother stuffing his face on burger at a sunny summer BBQ. Lovely!

We went on a road trip to Whitby today. Sunny weather, windows down, Reel Big Fish - it just doesn't get much better. We paddled, had ice cream and fish and chips (...although not together) and just generally had a lovely time in the sun.

I really hope this weather stays.

Playing around with the settings on my new phone's camera, took this outside on a fire drill at work. I'm still not sure what I think to the camera, but I suppose it's handy if I ever forget my normal one.

I got my new phone today! A HTC TyTN II, and it is awesome. Tons of cool features on - and a much better contract. I normally hate ringing people, but I spoke to Orange and just asked them to match and improve a contract on O2, and they did it!

I've been trying to actually cook more things, rather than just putting stuff into the oven and reading the back of the packet, because it is so frickin' easy to do that. This is new potatoes in mint and butter, grilled turkey steaks, and fried green beans.

This is quite a dull photo, but not much exciting happened today!

Today still seemed to be summer! I got in from work at half 7 to find these strange guys in my garden cooking burgers. I tried to take a natural photo, but as soon as they saw the camera they decided to pose.

Since today was a bank holiday, I decided to get round to doing one of those ideas I keep putting to the back of my head. I ordered some flat back Swarovski beads, and had a play around with putting some on a memory stick.

I'm pretty pleased with my first go, I learned a few lessons, and ordered no where near enough beads! I've also decided that I want to cover my Guitar Hero guitar, so we'll see if this actually happens...
