Buzzy at Qunity, Race for Life & Boomination!!!

The weeks are going so fast lately, has anyone else noticed it?
 
This week was a cut the red ribbon week, a momentous occasion to behold. Not only do we have the amazingly fabulous and jaw droppingly excellent BOOM! to listen to now we have http://boomination.com/ to read, how cool is that. Now if only Chuckles will mention my Twitter name on the show it will be better than perfect.
 
Oh and what have I been doing this week you shout?
 
Last Wednesday I went to Quinty (now there’s a surprise venue I don’t often go to!) with Buzzy. She had kindly done some research on a project for me so we had meant to go and go through that, and we did go through it but we kept digressing, okay I admit it she kept digressing. We did have rather a good timer though, drank a little wine, she drank like a fish the alcoholic woman, well she is Scottish and there were no buckets of whiskey on hand. I was disgusted at one point as she sat there and passed wind, fortunately it passed quite quickly but I didn’t dare light a match for  a while. She clearly need a very hard and long shag. That or a peanut flavour fish cake to clear her system out.
 
Saturday I was at the salon, which I have to say has to be one of the best jobs I have ever had, its a pleasure to go there, Errol is great, the Salon Manager Tracy is equally great and I love the work there as well. Errol cut my hair and I usually have real problems as my styling skills are next to rubbish, in that they are worse than rubbish, but this latest cut is his best yet, he has excelled even his usual standards, am loving it. The day passed pretty quickly there but was good.
 
P was out when I got home so I did something that I really miss and don’t get to do as often as would like, I took Milo and just chilled in the Park. Well when I say chilled I mean as much as I can between watching where he is sticking his nose, playing ball with him as if I don’t he stands right next to me and whines (subtle he isn’t).
 
Sunday was the Hyde Park race for Life. P had been saying he was going to go to one with me for ages, so I never actually believed he would ever come. The main reason for this is because we have to get up at 05:30 in order to be there for 06:30, early mornings are not his best time! We cycled there and I was amazed that we were only 15 minutes late. There were over 12,000 woman on the run for this one so it was massive. I had never seen p work so hard, he really did make me proud as was working and not once complained, even though it was hot and he was having to move heavy crates etc around. We were then asked to be court marshals which he did, though whenever a cyclist needed to be asked to dismount he would get me to do it!!!! There is another one later in the year so lets see if he goes to that one as well. We finished in the early afternoon so were pretty exhausted by then as it really is hard work, but its hard work that is worth it as you feel like you are doing some good.
 
Yesterday it was our best friends 40th birthday, oh how old he is getting, though he is so moody and grumpy at times that you would think it was his 80th. He decided he wanted to go to Jamie Oliver’s Italian restaurant in canary Wharf, at 19:00. So I had to rush to get there from work, which isn’t easy on the bloody underground, oh how I hate the Tube, it is crowded, stuffy and too hot, you get off and its like you have been in a sauna, not at all comfortable. So anyway I did get there and it was a jolly nice evening, the food there is quite good and of course the company was excellent, as was the wine :-) It was so coincidental as we were sitting there and this blonde girl was seated at the next table, it was a girl from work, how freaky is that!
 
So in the words at the end of the great BOOM! that’s all folks, same time and place next week? Okay then its a date.

    OMG! You actually made me laugh out loud at my desk! The wine was obviously strong as my recollection of the windy pop incident was that it was YOU who passed the wind …. and more than once….! :) Loving the blog and catching up with what you 3 have been up to
