YES! FEE WON! YEAH....this will be the second prize I send over the pond! Was that darling little puppy NOT tear-inducing? While listening to the music and scrolling down, I made myself cry! teeheee....also that moth....WOW. I DETEST moths but that color aqua got my attention as well as that pink parrot.

Because yesterday I bought Thomas Bon Jovi's Greatest Hits (2.99 in local petrol station, no less,)in a desperate attempt to wean him off those bloody Nursery Rhymes! And he loves it! Now being played full blast in his room upstairs. Sure beats Twinkle, Twinkle any day.<br /><br />And, mmmmmmmm. Kite surfers. They make a trip to the beach so worthwhile.<br /><br />XxAnnaboo's Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114896681029080504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-2899590486372209022012-06-19T06:07:09.664-07:002012-06-19T06:07:09.664-07:00Budding rock star or what, mrs?

Once my two lay underneath a tv cabinet all the way home from Clacton. We bought it on the way there for gawd's sake. (Hate the thing now and will be Annie Sloaning it up as soon as the old man moves the telly onto something different.) I have also had to wait outside Ikea with two sulky teenagers while Mr EF drives home with all the stuff I managed to pick up on the way round and then comes back to collect us. Effing and blinding all the way.<br />Liking that kite surfer action and might get myself down my local beach soon to see if there's any wet suits to ogle. I like the way you casually sit there taking photos of them. Not perving at all, officer, no. <br />Sorry to hear about your friend's dad, what a sad time for her. <br />Anyway I am going to sit and chuckle to myself now for a bit and hold the image of you chatting to Hunky Windsurfer Boy with wet bummed joggers on.<br />Happy day, Mentaller!<br />xxxMissyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00770551694049478266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-23604215687004256272012-06-18T14:09:24.156-07:002012-06-18T14:09:24.156-07:00Always love reading about your less-than-perfect e...Always love reading about your less-than-perfect encounters with the dishy locals!<br /><br />I wonder if the 'bin man' will rethink her trendy outfits in future?<br /><br />Sorry to hear about your friend's loss, I can sympathise unfortunately. xxMichellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14491620286385649324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-44605773012055226982012-06-18T12:44:54.577-07:002012-06-18T12:44:54.577-07:00Gem you all make me LOL,crazy lady!Lush piccie of ...Gem you all make me LOL,crazy lady!Lush piccie of the Prince,awh 'Band name',love him.Glad you had a great weekendxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-62637261056713629012012-06-18T07:08:11.677-07:002012-06-18T07:08:11.677-07:00Your little prince is just brilliant.

Lovin the Prince and his Bon Jovi (not to mention your pic with him) and the Princess is priceless. You have certainly bought a lot of 'Gem' to your new abode, your fellow country men should be forever grateful. Even this 'old' chick can appreciate a good body in a half mast wet suit :) Prince falling asleep like that cracks me up.

I was walking with my youngest the other day and we went past an old dear sitting on her mobility scooter outside a shop. Youngest asks rather loudly if he could have 50p for a ride once the 'old biddy' finishes her go! Oh, the face was red!<br /><br />Love the kite surfing, think I could watch that all day too!<br /><br />Hope you have a lovely week!<br /><br />Vanessa xxxCoco Rose Diarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00708755502453874593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-58042748972506762912012-06-18T01:06:15.708-07:002012-06-18T01:06:15.708-07:00Oh goodness me I LOVE reading your blog!!

That is just hilarious about the car (sorry!, just can sooo relate to it as it's the sort of thing that we do all the time! I have a funny story about when I bought a huge fish tank off ebay and sent husband to go and collect it - would have been fine I'f i'd actually taken measurements of the huge thing beforehand..and if husband didn't have such a tiny sports car! HA..the look on his face when he saw it was priceless!) Anyway my lovely thanks for cheering me up - i'm still chuckling from the Prince and the Bin-man comments! Ha!

I am relaxing tonight, no more ...OMG, dearest Gem.<br /><br />I am relaxing tonight, no more RUSHING about due to school, and I am loving your day. From cramming the Princess into the Ford with her bike, to the FABULOUS SURFERS in their half wet suits to the glorious video of the Prince, I am taken back with your style. I so enjoy entering into your life on an English beach, AND OH DEAR....THE BIN MAN!!!!!!! You have the most HILARIOUS MOMENTS my dear and please tell us you will be making a book of all these adventures....GEMS WASHED ASHORE.....I don't know, you have to share this on a wider scale. I will never forget the time you were ZIPPED UP so nicely in a firefighter's suit by none other than a handsome firefighter, but your ANATOMY made it a little bit of a challenge....teeeeeheeeeeee....what love.<br /><br />Oh dear, you are one of my absolute favorite reads and I now am smiling, but I am also in a prayerful mood and I shall go to say a prayer for your dear friend...what a tragedy to loose one's father near or on this day upon which we celebrate these special men. My daddy is long gone, but near in my heart.<br /><br />Peace my dear, AnitaCastles Crowns and Cottageshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01780241008313365707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2564454623039772845.post-89698075709312848942012-06-17T15:29:20.974-07:002012-06-17T15:29:20.974-07:00Oh I'm laughing out loud about the Bin Man com...Oh I'm laughing out loud about the Bin Man comment!
