Kitchen Meme

I was recently tagged by @mediocre_mum blog to do a meme(?) where I video my kitchen, the only rule being not to clean or tidy up first - although she had had the cleaner in before hers *whines*
Here goes my meme

Bouncy Castle Madness

I went to a fab christening party, clever guys getting a bouncy castle for the kids, but loved 90 year old grandad having a go! I have had permission by the way!

I wanna be like him at 90!

The New Zealand Experience #kiwisocial

This week we were invited to New Zealand House to experience what New Zealand has to offer. We were on the 18th floor in the penthouse suite with 360 degree view of London. Unfortunately the weather was a bit bleak so couldn't take any decent photos, but this will give you an idea!

We hooked up with some other bloggers, and it was lovely because we all knew some of the others. One such lady was the lovely @Vegemitevix who is also a Kiwi expat. Having read her wonderful blog I decided hers was a lot more informative than mine could ever be. I'm off to apply my Rotorua Thermal Mud mask and read through it again. Oh did I say it included pics of naked Rugby players ;)

Enjoy : Read @Vegemitevix blog here :)

The Filming Pics

Most of you know that I did a spot of dancing on TV and Film, my pics are on facebook but as I am useless at facebooking, thought I'd put some on here, for prosperity and all that :)
