"If you don't have anything nice to say......"

"Then don't say anything at all."

That was a saying my granny used to say to me and one I try to stick to where possible.

Hence the blog silence.

Whilst it has been manic with work, it has also been frustrating and annoying.

So rather than moan, silence it has been.

But I have had some fun times to, honest.

Such as a French connection VIP day:

A trip to the NEC grand designs:

And the NEC wedding fair:

Plus I still have lots of holiday photos to share and a surprise or two.

Forget the negatives, lets focus on the positives.

Another Christmas Conference....

Would you believe its Christmas conference time again already?!

Where does the time go?

Four solid days of the same session, I am sure to crazy by the weekend.

(Or should that be a little crazier?!)

Any hoo heres what I wore for the first day of madness:

A simple colourful outfit to kick off proceedings.

But never fear the sparkles are sure to be out by the end of the week.

Back In The Land Of The Working.....

Back to reality and after two days at work our holiday already seems a million years ago.

(Ok maybe not quite that long but you know what I mean)

So I shall of course now bore you to death with a trillion (Again I exaggerate a wee bit) photos of our time in Dartmouth.

So here are the first few days in photo form:

Whilst Saturday was a chill day after our journey, Sunday we visited Coleton Fishacre.

A beautiful National Trust property.

Monday we went on a Round Robin Trip, using the bus (Can't believe I got Andy on his second ever bus trip!) steam train and boat.

The weather was stunning and i was as excited as a small child.

Can you believe I have never been on a steam train before?!

And Relax.....

Saturday morning we loaded the car, collected the caravan and drove to a caravan site in Dartmouth.

And we don't return until next Sunday.
Heaven or what?

The weather has been kind today and we have been site seeing at Coleton Fishacre.

It was beautiful with stunning views of the sea.

(photos to follow soon)

Good old national trust, we have definitely had our money back as its proved fabulous value for money.

What a great day it's been with dry weather, great company and even a home cooked roast.

As for tonight a walk, a little telly and a glass or two of wine.

Hope you have all had a good weekend.

Loving The Memories....

In preparation for next week I have been checking the memory cards for the camera.

A simple job that should not take long, but for me it takes forever.

I love looking at all the picture we have taken.

And here are a few from our weekend at Chatsworth.

A beautiful place that we shall be sure to go back to.

 And having a key to get into the grounds from the caravan site made it extra special.

And of course an ice cream is a must when your on holiday!

 Having music played whilst you enjoyed your picnic was amazing.

And we really enjoyed walking in the grounds.

 

Every night we saw deer, it was amazing.

As for next weeks adventure?

Well, we are off to Dartmouth for the week and as its a place I have never been so I am very much looking forward to it.

Ashleigh and her boyfriend will have the house to themselves so they are quite happy too.

Busy, Busy, Busy.....

No rest this week, cause we have soooo much to do before we go off on our jollies.
(Yes we are off on our holidays again, what a lucky girl I am right?!)

Yesterday was back to work to a day full of back to back meetings, plus a meeting yesterday evening too.
So I finally sat down with a coffee (and a cake, naughty I know.) around 9 o'clock.

As for today, well more work but at least local this time and with a few meetings thrown into the mix.
However I had a few hours at home this morning so this was the lounging attire.

Shirt - Thirfted
Jeans - Asda
Sandals - BHS

Excuse the lack of make up please.
Comfy and content.

Would you believe tonight I am out again?
When I will get my holiday prep done I really don't know.
