Forbidden Corner

I always thought everyone had been here but after telling so many people I was going they were confused and I've had to explain this place!

Someone made it as a private piece of land with all the interesting things, but public demand made him open it to the public (and damn right!)

Mike trying to find the sensors

I went when I was 9 with a kids club, and can remember little bits of it, such as where I fell over or a few things which sprayed water at us! I was a bit unsure about taking a group of adults (Me being the second youngest...by 1 month!!) but everyone loved it!! =)

We got lost so many times and were very lucky with the weather as it didn't rain till we were driving home! Lots of walking around and little hidden things...such as rats (fake) above your head.

There was also a group of Rainbows and Browines around...that was embarrassing as they kept trying to get the girls together and using shouts I'm used to...so I joined in and I had to keep being reminded I'm not with them!

The boys got slush puppies and had great fun with them...(can never take the child anywhere!). All sort of areas including an "Underworld area" where you have to find your way out and it was very dark!

 And I had no idea Mike was pulling that face when I took the picture...It was very dark! and 10 mins before that we got soaked with water. There was just so much going on but it was so much fun!

Then we chilled out and went to see some ducks...which Adam tried to feed Lemon drops...

Overall a brilliant day which anyone should go..Kids if they can walk and you dont need a buggy and adults!! =D

Challenge #10

**I did it!*

I beat the boys at a computer game! Even better....I'd never played it before and beat Mike!

Definatley a win day for me!

Challenges

I want to try and think of 22 things to do this year before I turn 23 (next June). This year just gone, my challenge was to learn to drive and see more people and I did! I passed my text in March and then drove to Manchester and Preston, which I'd never done, and I'd never been there either! Doing that's made me realise I want to live in that area!

So now my plan is...well y'kno I haven't got one!

Defiantly got a few I want to try and I suppose I will keep updating as I think of more!

1. Take Part COMPLETE NaNoWriMo November 2011
2. Go to Amsterdam
3. See more of the people who really mean things to me!
4. Read 100 books
5. Review at least 50 of those books!

Few more given by Mike in the car (19/6/11):

6. Keep 5 plants alive for a year...(I have a habit of killing them!)
7. Buy a new Corset
8. Go to a Strip Club
9. Find a hat that suits me
10. Beat the boys at a computer game
11. Successfully dye my hair blonde, and keep it for at least a week
12. Eat an animal I have never eaten before

 More! Now from Noeleen! (20/06/11)

13. Visit a museum or all the museums in the North East
14. Teach the cats a new trick and put it on YouTube.
15. Bake something really complicated and take a photo and put it on facebook to be judged in an online baking competition. 
16. Submit one of the book reviews or NaNoWriMo to a publisher 
17. Build a bee house for the garden (save the bees). 
18. Take up a new hobby like photography or write a short story and submit to local press to see if you could get published. 
19, Go and do something outdoors you haven't done before like tree climbing (Go Ape), paint balling, go-karting, mountain biking, orienteering, camping

Any more ideas I am very open to suggestions...well as long as it doesn't involve endangering my life! COME ON!! 4 more to go!! =)

My Birthday Baking fun!

Vicky cracking the eggs 

Yesterday (13th) was my birthday so me and one of my bestest friends, Vicky, decided to drink wine and bake Marble cupcakes...baring in mind Vicky had never properly baked before!Looking back on last night...(with a slightly fuzzy head..) we should've baked first...then drank while waiting for them to finish!!

I apologise for the pics...my camera was a bit crap due to the battery dying!Also the reason theres quite a few steps missing...Such as when Lesley came over and banged on the door...Vicky flew across the kitchen panicing...

Cupcakes ready to go in the oven!

Soon they were ready to go in the oven and looked all tasty! 

30 mins later...yumm!!


Defiantly a fun way to spend my Birthday!! =)
