What Does Your Birth Date Mean For Your Love Life?

Your Birthdate: April 25

Calm and understated, you struggle to express your love with words. Over time, your partner learns to recognize your passion by the actions you take. You're good at wooing someone slowly, without them even realizing it! Number of True Loves You'll Have: 2 Number of Times You'll Have Your Heart Broken: 2 You are most compatible with people born on the 7th, 16th, and 25th of the month.

Lazy Weekend

I'm feeling a bit bad that I haven't got much to enter in my blog these days - Or if I do I forget to take my camera! I really need to send the camera I bought in Australia off for repair as it really is not very happy which is really disappointing :(

So..what have I been up to this weekend? Not alot as usual! Well it feels like that..however have managed to get back into my exercise campaign. Went to a class on friday evening and this morning dragged myself along to Body Pump at Kennet - Actually I went with enthusiasm!

I did go round Kathys on Friday night for a Dinner Party, 7 of us there. Lovely food and good company. It was to help to raise money for her Charity Walk in February. Just in case anyone is still reading my blog (though I doubt it these days) here is the link to Kathys site : http://www.justgiving.com/KathyJenkins2007

Saturday shopping in Tescos, how exciting!! Well I did enjoy it actually.... then popped round my mums, then round Nikis!

Right now for the rest of my chilled Sunday!!

What Age Do You Act?

Ok, ok...I'm being silly tonight...and I blame Danielle as I found the original link on her blog!! :) but I like the result of this test!

You Are 20 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

Age I'll Die!!

I didn't do well on this....

You Will Die at Age 61

You're pretty average when it comes to how you live... And how you'll die as well.

What Age Will You Die?

Grovenor House Hotel Montage

10th Breast Cancer Care Fashion Show

Edit video online at onetruemedia.com

It was a really good evening out in London - The only difficulty being that is was the middle of the week. Everyone else went from Thatcham in the Limo apart from me who met up with them at the hotel as I went straight from Paddington. It was a late night!

10th Breast Cancer Care Fashion Show

The event - Wednesday 4th October 2006 at the Grosvenor House

This fabulous annual event marks the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month and features real men and women, all of whom have had breast cancer, modelling on the catwalk demonstrating that they can look good and feel great after a diagnosis.

This evening was arranged by Kathy and we had a table of 10. It was obviously for a very good cause. Geri Halliwell presented, with Cheri Blair and Duncan from Blue singing.

Mon 2nd Oct - Student Night Out!

Well after another interesting days training in Stoke-On-Trent which ended with us going out on the town. Bizarre as it is the busiest night during the week is Monday Night! Here are some photos from my camera

London Zoo Montage!

London Zoo

Today had a Day out at London zoo with Graham, Ali, Luci, Ed and Howard.The weather lovely and we had a good fun day. My favourite part was the Butterfly House! Unlike Australia I never found any Koalas...

Adam Ant

The new Borders shop opened on the Business park today and they had Adam Ant signing copies of his autobiography for me...so I went and bought a copy. Unfortunately the photo of me with him didn't come out very well so I have not published it here.

Vodstock

So I did go to the Ball...or should I say Vodstock!! I got picked in style by my partner for the evening, George...now how old was that Landrover??? :)

Unfortunately we never met up ith that many people I knew because a lot of people decided not to go this Year.

We did get to go in the Nokia Balloon! Had lots to eat...Hog roast...donuts...sit down meal...candy floss!! Met Lisa, which was great...saw Rajesh Patel, Ray Wilton, Nick Greer...and a few others..
