On My To Do List Today

I had all sorts of plans for this weekend, mainly getting this and that done because I wanted to be all organised for my trip on the caravan on Monday morning.  However, I spent Friday teatime and all day Saturday in bed with the lurgy. Luckily today I am feeling much better but now I have lots of do!

• 5 loads of washing
• A large pile of ironing
• place a couple of on-line orders I've been meaning to sort
• buy tickets for 80's concert at Open Air Theatre in Scarborough
• Supermarket
• get petrol
• check tyres/oil/water
• hoover
• post car insurance documents
• straighten hair
• pack
• read magazine (see below)

I'm really glad I logged on this morning and saw this post before I started on my list. I managed to get my hands on a copy on Easy Living Magazine at the supermarket. I was sure it would've sold out.  So I have my FREE Cath Kidston tote bag, the latest CK catalogue and 15% off  CK order.....I'm tempted by so many things in the catalogue but unfortunately funds are now low after on-line purchases and acquiring tickets (see above) But I can plan, and ouuu and ahhhh over all the CK loveliness.  I am especially loving the red polka beach towel and the melamine dishes and beakers. Oh and the luggage!

I still have the ironing mountain to tackle and it is already 6 pm...eek! And I need to pack but that will only take my 20 minutes or so.  Looks like the magazine reading will have to wait until we get to the coast, good job I have my lovely new CK tote to take them in :) 

 

The Sun is out this morning.  I was up at 6am to take MrFuzz to work so I decided to take advantage and visit the car boot sale.  I picked up some curtains and bedding for my little niece as well as some bits and bobs I intend to sell on ebay.  I've eaten breakfast, washed the car and it's still only 9:30am!

I think I will do a bit of weeding and sweeping in the back garden and get some washing out. Then I am going to paint the bathroom window. I liked it better when Sundays were a day of rest :)  Still, it's the price I have to pay for working full time and then spending 2 weekends a month (at least!) at the caravan.

Speaking of the caravan, i spotted these lovely storage jars which would be perfect for the caravan kitchen

and this fab poster and tea towel....

 

 they are available here
along with lots of other very tempting goodies!

Days By The Sea - April #2

I'm having a bit of a quiet bank holiday weekend catching up with housework, laundry, and a bit of DIY.  So I thought instead of boring you all with pictures of laundry piles, paint pots etc, I will share some pictures from our last few trips to the caravan.

 

New shops in Beverley were visited, (is it just me or does anyone else feel like a right numpty standing in a busy street taking pictures of shops etc?)

Afternoon Tea was eaten .....(we shared that cake - honest!)

 
Mr Fuzz walked along the Victorian Bridge in Scarborough on the day it was re-opened after its make over. It is now painted the most beautiful shade of blue.

 
I enjoyed the view from the bridge. 

 
The weather was lovely so we went for a walk and had a picnic lunch.

 
 
 on the way back we called at a garden centre and bought some pick 'n' mix frozen fruits - gooseberries yum yum, my favourites. My mum makes the most delicious gooseberry pie...I should have bought her some!
