A visitor from the Ice Age

Meet my new friend Sid! Isn't he a cutie, we valiantly rescued him from the ice age and brought him to live in Swad - what more could a prehistoric sloth ask for!  Paul got me Sid to cheer me up, and to keep me company on my drive to work. At least now i will have someone to talk too when i am stuck on the A38!

Today didn't start well, it was a lovely morning - beautifully bright and sunny, so we decided to head to Byrkley Park to check out the Christmas decorations. Sadly we only got half way through Barton, the road was closed due to the remembrance Sunday service and we were unable to go any further. I hadn't realised it was so near to 11am. Instead we headed back into Burton to do some shopping, like Old Mother Hubbard, all my cupboards were bare.....along with the freezer and fridge! While in town we decided to have coffee and i decided we should try somewhere we'd not been before. With this in mind we headed up to Cafe B - don't ask why but I've never been! When we got there the place was almost obscured by scaffolding, vans and men with long poles! I was convinced that they'd drop something on my head and that would be the end of me! We went off to Home Bargains and returned later, when we only had to contend with the scaffolding. I am glad we did, what a lovely place when you get inside. I love the way the place was laid out and decorated. Already looking forward to going back again at some point.

When we got home my personal colourist (aka Paul!) did my hair for me, he's really very good at it. Tho i wish he would stop trying to talk like a hairdresser! Glad to say my hair looks much better now! And i tried out my new nail polish, bright red with a glittery top coat that sparkles like diamonds when the light catches it. I almost feel ready to face a new week!
