Morrissey, Morrissey, Morrissey.......

Oh my god!!!!! Excitement!!!! We have tickets for Morrissey!!!!!! I nearly had a heart attack trying to buy tickets, I had 2 phones and my laptop going-I looked like one of those Wall street traders shouting 'Buy,Sell,Buy'. Anyway tickets are bought now so I can relax. I have travelled all over to see Morrissey so I am soooo happy this time he will only be a 10 minute tram journey away.



After I had calmed down on friday, I noticed these on my kitchen table, Geordie found them in the 'hideous cupboard under the srairs'. I have got no idea where they came from or what they were doing in my 'hideous cupboard under the stairs'. Geordie has never seen them before either! I do like them though and squealed with delight on finding them.....

I haven't been doing much to blog about recently as no sooner did I recover from my virus (which made me feel rough for about 3 weeks) when I started to feel ill again. I actually realised I'd been ill every month since last November. I decided to really take it easy for a couple of weeks and went to bed early every night and got loads of sleep, I bought some vitamin C, zinc and echinacea drops, loads of fruit, salad and vegetables, and tried to keep my stress levels really low. Geordie is an angel when I feel low because he was making me my tea so I could eat when I came in from work, and he made me a flask of hot water, honey and lemon every morning to take to work. It seems to be working up to now anyway because fingers crossed I've started to feel a bit better and more like my old self.

Anyway speaking of Geordie, he has been working away on restoring his lovely 1978 MGB GT. He loves restoring classic cars and we have had loads of Beetles, Mini's, a VW campervan and loads of motorbikes. I am trying desperately to finish my car blanket so we can take it to the classic car shows in the summer in the MG with our lovely picnic hamper.

I know it's only an MG not an E-type jag but I always feel a bit decadent and movie star-ish when we go out in it and I think Geordie should be wearing a velvet smoking jacket and smoking a pipe.

Off for another early night now but hopefully I'll be back to my old knitting, crocheting, vintage hunting, craft loving, shopaholic, colourful self soon.

  1. Welcome back to blogland! Sorry to hear you haven't been well. I've never known a season like this one for bugs and viruses. How exciting about Morrissey. I've seen him 3 times now. I was 16 when I first saw him and it took me a few weeks to calm down! I love your "hideous cupboard" discoveries, they are far from hideous x

    1. I know! I can't wait to go and see him now. I think the seasons being so changeable has def contributed to my being run down-fingers crossed I'm over it now. :-)

  5. I'm so jealous of the gorg car. Love your crazy trader comment when getting tickets, I remember doing that a few years (ok, quite a lot) ago for Glasto tickets. I got them, it rocked my world. Rx

    1. Hi Rachael, it's just sooo stressful getting tickets isn't it? I thought I was having a heart attack. I love Glasto too but I like my home comforts a bit too much these days-lol. xx
