Making It Through The Wilderness.

Ferry Angry

I believe that when you have animals you should do your best to keep them with you at all times. This is why, whenever possible, Lilu (cat) and Potato (dog) come with me on my holidays. Our last trip was to Guernsey, we went there on the ferry.

The ferry takes around two and a half hours from Weymouth to Guernsey. During which time Potato and Lilu sleep in the car, and I sit in the cabin either feeling sick or sleeping. This time, I opted for sleeping.

So there I was on a relatively empty boat sitting on a chair, which was at a table, where none of the other chairs (4) were taken. I thought it fair to sit at the empty table and have a little sleep. Apparently, it was not at all fair.

I became aware of a strong presence surrounding me. Even with my eyes closed I knew I was in trouble. When I opened them my senses couldn’t have been more right. I was faced with none other than ANGRY FAMILY.

I just found this post one an old site of mine. Thought it was quite funny and thought I would re post it! Must have been from about two years ago….

My oh my, what a horrendous day I had today. This is a totally unsophisticated story I am going to tell. Brace yourselves!

I was out last night in Soho Town, with a couple of great friends. We were downing shots, dancing on tables and having a sing song. Perfect! Such a great idea at the time, a total hoot!

Next thing I know I wake up on my bed, FULLY clothed. Pink Miu Miu’s and bouffant still firmly in place. It was 9.15am, and the only reason I woke up was because the buildings fire alarm went off.

Ouch!

p.s…

I was just drying a pair of pink knickers on the window handle.

Um….they have blown away. Part of my hopes they land on the windscreen of a plane and give the pilot something to think about on a long haul flight. The other part of me hopes they land on someones head.

If a bird poo is good luck, what on earth do pink frilly knickers mean?

Do let me know if you see them floating by, I shall come after them with a butterfly net.

Why? WHY WHY WHY would she ask me of I was going for a poo poo?

As you know I am the queen of embarrassing moments, but seriously, SERIOUSLY, this one even surprised me.

Let’s start from the beginning….

My boyfriend has a joke that he thinks is funny and that I hate. It goes something like this…when we are out socializing and I get up to go for a wee he calls after me  and as loudly as he can shouts, ‘ARE YOU GOING FOR A POO?’

Yes. That is what he does. My boyfriend.

I want to be…(wedding speech part two)

Oh my giddy aunt I can’t believe what I put myself through with that reading. I wrote something on Friday then LUCKILY read it to my sister who told me it was ‘shit’. I spend the night before the wedding with the bride drinking wine pretending everything was fine. It was not.
