JUNE 27th - MARI'S BDAY BEACH TRIP |
![]() |
<<^ It all began on what looked to be a hot, sunny day when Peter, Sock, Claire, Emmy, Hel, Marikin and myself decided to risk the beach... |
<<<...Claire was frolicking in her bright blue hat, Peter^^ had set up a space for himself with everything he needed (footie strip, lunch box, food, knobbly knees) and Mari was dancing gayly like the little rasta that she is... >>> |
<<<...Emkin had even made herself a brand new friend.... remind you of anyone in particular?? That's right, it's Bovey, just with a little more hair. (Joke, honestly!!) ... |
... When suddently, HORROR UPON HORRORS, it began to RAAAAAIN!!!... >>> |
... Quickly we created a nifty rain shelter out of a bit of old blanket... >>> |
<<<... And so (HOORAY), all was saved. And a good time was had by all, despite the fact that Em was the only one with the sense to bring a mac and everyone could see Marianne's bra. Ah, what a nice day, and not a drop of alcohol in sight! ;) |

AUGUST 6th-8th: CRUISE TO NORWAY! |
<<< The gorgeous Norwegian sky at sunset from the deck of the ferry. Mari and I went alone. The views were breathtaking but the boat itself rather biddy-tastic. |
<<< We spent the majority of our time out on deck admiring the sights - little islands, waves, water.... er, Marianne, a few amusing biddies, chubby Norwegian men...um, boy scouts, another island... and of course NORWAY! \/ \/ \/ |

^^^Finally, after what seemed like forever, we got to step onto REAL NORWEGIAN SOIL - woo! We took in the amazing sights of Bergen, for example the fishmarket, fish museum (hmm, something tells me Norwegians are fond of fish...) and, of course, the infamous McDo - where salmon burgers are made... \/ \/ >> |
<<Mari just LOVES trolls. (That's her on the right by the way, in case you were confused. Hoho.) |
Bye bye Norway! We will miss you! My sexy self posing on the ferry before we dock safely back in boring old Blighty. Ah, what I'd give for a chortling Norwegian biddy, salmon burger or overweight boy scout.... Sigh. >>> |
Don't worry my darlings, birthday pics will be here ASAP! Yeeeeah! |
