Sensational 60s

We had a really good night out last night. We drove to Weston Super Mare to see a show at the Playhouse. We love 60s music and there were some great acts on this show.

We even had a chance to catch up with Mike Pender, an original member of The Searchers. We haven’t seen him for quite a while and the last time we had a photo taken with him it dissappeared off hubbys phone.

I’m wearing the scarf my friend Gwen bought me when we were out in Tererife. I had altered her dress for her but refused to let her pay me, this was her way of thanking me. It’s lovely.

Diet is on again now the holidays over and we are back to reality. I have downloaded the Carbs and Cals app so that I can track things  better but I need to get back to the gym. 

That’s it for now, nothing much happened today except for a dentist appointment and writing out my shopping list for tomorrow. My son and his family flew down to Bristol from Edinburgh and the plane landed after the third attempt due to cross winds. They are visiting Sarah’s family today and tomorrow and will be over to me on Wednesday. I can’t wait for the cuddles!

Tenerife

I have just returned from a lovely week in Tererife with hubby and friends. We get on really well with Tom and Gwen so it’s a pleasure to spend time with them. We stayed at The Quayarmina Princess hotel in Costa Adeje.

We did 2 trips, the first being a boat trip out to see the whales and the second one was to La Gomera. Both enjoyable and very difference experiences. The boat was quite small and the sea quite choppy but we did see the whales, quite a few of them. Our guide on the La Gomera trip was very loud and over the top but kept us all entertained and we grew used to him as the trip went on. We saw dolphins on the way over on the ferry and La Gomera was stunning, a really good trip to do.

Tom managed to take the most unflattering picture of me which I will keep looking at whenever I am tempted to eat anything naughty.

Promising myself I will look much better when we meet up at Christmas!

The evening entertainment was very good, magicians, Abba take off, Bee Gees take off, Spainish dancers etc. We found something to watch most nights after dinner. Before dinner it was Sangia in a bar over looking the sea, well it had to be done.

I wore my new trousers that I bought in the M&S sale

And my new dress I bought from Roman.

My new jacket came in very useful on the way to Gatwick and on the way back. It was light but warm and was easy to pack away in my hand luggage while on the plane.

The holiday is over now and I have 8 weeks to our favourite bands Christmas Party and the party dress that I want to get into. I’m not sure I can do it but I am going to give it a try.

All for now,

Stella
