Animated gifs

I have become really addicted to making animated gifs recently. It started when I joined tumblr ans now I can't stop it. They are mostly from Gossip Girl or starring Penn Badgley but I have also made some Community and suits ones. I am going to share them all here :D

Lovely Mother's Day

Its been a fab Mother's day today.

I didn't get Breakfast in bed but I did get Breakfast made for me. Then it was off out to Mackworth College to watch my niece Abbie play football for the Mackworth St Francis U7s.

It was a great game. Unfortunately they didn't win but they played exceptionally well and scored 4 great goals. Who would know that a bunch of 7 year olds could play such a game full of tension and excitement? I love it!!

I received a Dolce & Gabbana purse to go with my D&G Handbag and 2 more boxes of chocs to go with the 2 I already got for my birthday.

I spent the afternoon lounging on the sofa watching movies. I watched 2 movies that started with the same 3 words. The Haunting of Molly Hartley and The Haunting of Sorority row.

Bret was Chef for the evening. He made his special Homemade Burgers and Chips. It was delicious! and very filling.

Time for Dancing on Ice and then my 3rd movie for the day - Which was supposed to be The Green Lantern but I couldn't get it to work so we watched The Roommate instead.

Fringe - This episode looks amazing!

I don't know whether to go ahead and watch now or just wait for it to air here. If I download it now I will have to wait 4 weeks for the next epsiode but If I just carry on watching on Sky's schedule then I won't have the wait like the states will and we will probably catch them up!

Wednesday Observations

I have been out this morning to Tesco in town and I realised that if I keep my wits about me there is lots going on to write about.

First of all as I waited to cross over Mercian way, A car stopped and the driver berated me because I was stood waiting and wasn't crossing over. I wasn't crossing because the lights weren't on Red and the Green man wasn't showing.

Further on my travels I saw 1 taxi driver smoking a cigarette in his taxi - with all the windows wound up! I wouldn't want to be his next passenger...That should be illegal!!

I saw my next Taxi driver driving whilst on his mobile phone. Now I KNOW that's illegal! He was setting off from parked! Couldn't he just wait a few minutes more until he finished his conversation before he set off?

In town as usual, there were Charity collectors all the way down St Peter's street. You could see people trying to avoid them. If you spot them early enough you can formulate a plan so you can avoid them altogether or have something ready to say or you could just ignore them. Why should we have to though? Why do we allow these people to encroach on our lives??

My main visit to town was for Tesco. I picked up everything I needed except for Catfood. Now what kind of Supermarket doesn't sell single tins of Catfood?? It meant I would have to make a further stop on my way home to pick up a couple of tins from Spar or Londis.

I got to the checkout and was disgusted at the level of Customer service - ZERO! No smile, no greeting just a miserable young girl who was very rude and couldn't get me out quick enough, She tutted when I said I had a load of coupons.

I won't be recommended her for any awards any time soon!

It doesn't end there, I got home and settled down to a cuppa and a good Christmas movie and the phone rang. I went to answer it and it was an automated voice telling me I have a message for some company or other. I hung up and the phone has rang non-stop since. In fact I had to unplug the phone as I just had enough! What did I say about these companies encroaching on our lives?!!!

So Happy Humpday to me!

Liverpool Lambananas

As part of Liverpool's Capital of Culture celebrations, 125 two metre high replicas of Superlambanana were commissioned and located throughout Liverpool and the surrounding areas. The mini Superlambananas were developed in partnership between the Liverpool Culture Company and Wild in Art, with each one being sponsored by a local institution or business and designed by local community members. The miniature Superlambananas were on display for ten weeks, from the June to August 2008.^[17] The Liverpool Echo partnered with the event, releasing a location map and guide of every mini Superlambanana to encourage locals to get involved.^[18] All but two of them were located within the Merseyside area. Lovemedoodle was located at Euston railway station in London for a short while until it was moved back to Liverpool Lime Street station^[19], whilst The Highest SuperLambBanana was located on top of Moel Famau in North Wales and was sponsored by Denbighshire County Council.^[20]

Eye in the Sky

I am writing a full blog post about our trip to Merseyside. I know though that there will be too many photos so I am breaking them up into categories to make smaller posts.

Here are all my photos from our trip to the Liverpool Eye which is alongside the Echo arena at Kings Dock.
