Full of Hot Air - Virgin Experience Days

Last year for my birthday I was treated to a hot air balloon voucher with Virgin, I know, lucky right!

Bath Weekend

Towards the end of June, Glastonbury weekend to be exact, Andy and I took a trip down to Bath for the weekend. The plan was to do a hot air balloon ride on the Friday morning, taking off from Victoria Park, as flying from Bath means your in with a pretty good chance of seeing Stonehenge, Salisbury Plain and, of course, Glastonbury festival all from above. I have to say though, the Glastonbury bit was actually completely by accident but would have been a massive bonus to have seen/heard the festival from a hot air balloon!

Anyway we booked up Bath for a night so we could see a city we haven't been to on top of the balloon flight but it turns out balloon flights are really hit and miss and it was cancelled a few hours beforehand. We went to Bath regardless and did a bit of sight seeing as well as stopping off at some top tourists spots on the way home.

I've vowed to see as many cities in Europe as I possibly can in a short a space of time as possible and for someone who never holidayed outside of the UK up until a couple of years ago, I've managed to make a pretty good start on the list. Two more trips coming up for Summer and I reckon I'll be justified in buying one of those giant cork board maps to document all the places I've been to so far. Next trip is in 21 days and I can't wait to take looooads of polaroids to add to my collection.

#ootd poppy season

I really do love living in the countryside when it gets to this time of year.

Hey, is this thing on?

After finishing a few weeks ago and finding that I now have lots of time on my hands that I don't know what to do with (despite my constant moaning while I was studying that I had no free time!) I decided to jiggle my blog around a bit. Change the layout a bit here, mess around with the fonts a bit there, you know how it gets when you've had the same template for a while and want a refresh. Like a kind of spring clean for your corner of the internet.

Whilst playing around, I decided to go all out and change the name and address of the page too.
I've had this blog for ages and have kept the same name mostly out of sentimentality - because the friend who chose the blog title unfortunately died in a car accident a few months after I started the blog - and I couldn't really bring myself to change the name, soppy huh!
But, it's been two years now, and it really just needed a refresh so I changed it all and off I went thinking I'd got it all sorted. Turns out it wasn't sorted at all so it couldn't go live when I planned it to, oopsie!

But I got there in the end and here we are. New blog name, new fonts and a new start for my tired little blog. I'd love your feedback on it all so let me know what you think in the comments. I hope you all enjoy :)

The Venice Post

I finally made the trip to Venice the weekend before last and OMG it was amazing! We had three full days and two nights in the city and I genuinely didn't want to come home.
