Back from Hols!

Back from my Holiday in Somerset and I have managed to tick off 3 of my tasks:

93. Eat chips from the wrapper at the beach

94. Eat an ice cream at the seaside

62. Go to a zoo with my family

93 and 94 were very enjoyable and both occured on Weston Super Mare esplanade. Unfortunately the chips came in polysterene tubs rather than papers but tasted nice all the same.

The Zoo we visited was called Noahs Ark and was just outside of Bristol. It had lots of lovely animals and we all enjoyed it. Many of the smaller animals could be fed and we all had fun feeding them with grass pellets available onsite. The creatures thatamused me most though were the chickens, they were very friendly and let you pick them up. I also laughed a lot at the way they ran all over the place when they saw people with feed for them!


I didnt visit Bath, alhough this would have been a perfect time to tick that one off too, as there was limited access for prams so will have to postpone that one for a while. May go back next year and also possibly uncross Wookey hole visit too although my son would still be very small.

Ooooooooooops its been a while

Well I am back after being told off by Danny!!

I have been poorly and then our boiler broke and needed replacing and I got a bit demotivated with everything and I have also returned to work. These are all excuses I know and i am not the first person in this situation so Thankyou Danny for nagging me!!

I have just looked over my list again and I have managed to complete 1 since I was last here.

86 - Feed the ducks at least 3 times - I have enjoyed doing this so i will still continue to feed the duckies but I have now done it 3 times so I can cross it off.

There are a couple to cross off by default:

42 Sell My Flat - Flat was on the market for 4 months and hasnt sold. I would need to lower the price lower than I could afford to so I have taken it off of the market and friends will be renting it from me.

81 Visit Wookey Hole - We are visiting the area next week for a holiday and I had lanned to do this then. However after researching on their website I have discovered that this is not going to be possible within the 1001 days due to little Pip. You are unable to take prams into the caves and we would be unable to carry him round as A) he is too heavy and B) you have to duck to just over 1meter in places so not possible with a 9 month old in your arms. So I will cross it off for the moment but will probably add it to my next 101 list!

74 and 75 also need to be crossed off without actually being achieved.
Organise and attend a school reunion.
I began to look into arranging a reunion and sent tentative enquiries to as many ex school friends as I could get hold of. Many of them no longer live within the viscinity of the town, many had just had or are expecting babies, some just plain didnt want to see anyone from their past!! Add into the mix that it was going to be expensive to hire a hall (an expense I could not carry) or that friends could not afford meals or drinks I decided to just scrap the idea.
Giving in, yes I suppose thats true but not much point spending alot of time organising something that very few would attend.

90) Return to work part time and remain so due to effective budgetting is under way and going ok so far.

With my reading and musicals list I had hoped to reread/rewatch all the ones I had aleady read/see. I realise now that this is just not practical so I have marked the ones I have already viewed.

Well thats me caught up again. On holiday next week so i hope to complete a couple of the seaside related tasks.

See you all again soon x x
