Friday Finds

In the course of my day to day life I am often assailed by some tantalizing pieces of information, humorous videos or other miscellany and have decided to remove them from my own head by making them come out and tickle your heads instead in a new weekly post I’m calling *Friday finds* (in lieu of a better name). Hopefully reader some of this pointless trivia will interest/amuse/ delete as applicable and to paraphrase if my post can make you smile I’m happy.

Today's find:
There's a Norwegian furniture company called Fjord Fiesta

Things I Love Thursday

From the first strike of midnight, today has been a no-good, very bad day for me. It would be easy, so, so, easy to sit and mope and whinge. However that never solved anything so instead it’s time to focus on the happy things I love this week:

This week I love catching up with friends. Last Saturday I met up with two of my oldest and dearest friends for pub lunch followed by a tour of my friend S’s brand new house. It is a gorgeous 2-bed semi detached and I’m sure she and her fiancé will be very happy there.

I am also loving that a couple of my darling youth group have taken to sending me amusing/silly/cheesy (delete as applicable) messages after we threatened them last week that due to the Thursday group being oversubscribed non-attendance without prior explanation could lead to them losing their place. One of my favourite so far reads:
“Hi, not sure I’ll make it tonight. I have to go throw grenades at Bruno Mars girlfriend to see if he is all talk ;) j/k see you later gb x”

Also:

- Midsomer Murders- Goodbye Barnaby, it’s the end of an era

-The new advert for totaljobs.com reminds me of that facebook group ‘THINGS THAT LOOK LIKE FACES’

-'Oh, you've only got a little dad, have you?'

The Beatles, Morecambe and Wise, what’s not to love!

And so concludes my list of this week’s pleasures. What are the brightest and shiniest snippets of your week?

Things I Love Thursday

Well, first of all, I love the fact that I actually found time to post this today. I’ve been away for a week without any real internet access, which has proved both liberating and frustrating at times.

Gorgeous girl, my niece. Yes I’ve mentioned her and my super-cute nephew little man in numerous tilt’s but I’m singling her out this week because Tuesday was her birthday (one year old already, where did the last year go reader?) and last Saturday was her party. Also so glad that her baby cousin, who was eight weeks prem is doing well in hospital despite being rushed back into SCBU on Tuesday night.

West Country accents – it’s such a warm and welcoming accent. It always brings a smile to my face and I’ve loved being surrounded by them for a week.

Waking up to this magnificent view each morning:

The excitement on a child face when they show you something new.

Veggie Perrins- an old university days haunt which reassuringly hadn’t changed much.

Catching up with family and friends I haven’t seen in a while.

The ‘Great Girly Meet-up ’ this weekend (Yen, I love that name)

What’s filling you with love and joy reader?
