Slacker Alert!

Again, apologies for the lack of posts, I'm currently at home with my parents preparing for my grandfathers memorial party. I'm doing alot of the cooking so that then leaves little time to do much else!

I'm back in London on Monday, and no doubt with the current state of things there I will be posting several fairly lengthy posts...anything to avoid the avoidable!!!!

Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine, its making me super happy!

5 Most wanted Lush products update!

In my last blog post I listed the 5 Lush products I most want to try, well already I'm needing to compile a new list!!! I visited a Lush store with my sister on Sunday, and I managed to pick up, either the product itself or a generous sample, as a result the R&B hair moisturiser is the only one i have yet to try!!!

As I have yet to use my Ceridwyn's Cauldron I can't really review that, I am however planning a rose inspired bath cocktail tonight, so i may update on that later tonight!!

The first item I was keen to try was the Grass Shower Gel - well well well, I just got back from my second trip to lush in as many days and I picked up another sample of this beaut! its AMAZING, it lathers great (using my loofah) and its the type of lather that sticks to your skin, it also smells amazing, it doesn't linger on your skin but its very refreshing in the morning. The sample I got I have used twice and I still have enough for one more shower out of it, so a little goes a long way, I have vowed to eventually buy a full size bottle!!!

Another item I was desperate to try was the Crème Anglaise moisturiser, this is Lush's most expensive single product, and as i stated in my previous post, one I'm unlikely to ever own a full sized tub of! The Sample is suiting me just fine though, again a little goes a long way, and it smells fantastic, its also a smell that lingers, so you can guarantee hours later you will still be able to smell it!!

Finally the last product I sampled was the American Cream conditioner, the smell isn't one of my favourite, however its by no means unpleasant, with the sample, it wasn't enough for me to get a real idea as to how this would work, so I may need to buy a small bottle in order to make my mind up on it!

As for my Ceridwyn's Cauldron expect an update very soon!!!!

Friday Night with Jonathan Ross...

I went to the recording of 'Friday Night with Jonathan Ross' last night, and although I'm not a fan of Jonathan Ross, I really enjoyed myself! A friend of mine from back home had a spare ticket, so I went with her and her Mum, I basically went as a good excuse to see them and have a catch up!!!!!!! But nevertheless I enjoyed myself!!!

Filming finished at 9pm, and by the time I got home it was about 10:15, so I chucked some food in the oven and had myself a very late dinner!!!

Today I'm supposed to be going shopping in order to buy a bikini for the spa day on Wednesday, but I can't seem to motivate myself to move and go shopping, something I normally LOVE doing!!

Tomorrow is the dutch party!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!!!! On my way back from the BBC yesterday I kept seeing posters for tomorrows event, and I couldn't stop smiling! I CANNOT WAIT!!!! I have already charged my camera up to take lots of pictures tomorrow, but still have nothing orange to wear, which although not essential, is a big part of the day!!

I will probably make a stupidly long blog tomorrow about it, and, hopefully I will be able to add some decent photos!!!!!!

Ciao!!! XxXxX
