Spanish Seizures....

I'm back :D I've been on my holidays - we went to Spain and to France to the Sister in Laws :D

We drove down to Spain on the Wednesday night - getting v lost and ending up in the middle of Barcelona!! (OOPS) Finally arriving at our destination at around 12.30am ... The first day was spent looking around the town of Sitges It was an absolutely beautiful day and we walked around the town, spent time on the beach and had a great goats cheese salad on the seafront.

That night we got changed and wandered around the town to find a restaurant - finally stopping at a place where I had a massive paella (yum) and some gorgeous wine.

What I wore in the day:

Smock: Cherokee @ Tesco.

Jeans: New York Laundry.
Shoes: Marks and Spencer's.

What I wore in the evening:
Dress: Primark.
Leggings: Tesco.
Boots: Barrett's.Necklace: Asda.

The next day I woke up early, but didn't feel to well - felt really achy and tired so went back to bed for a while ... then we got ready and walked to the train station to go to Barcelona!!


When we arrived in Barca we walked around to find a restaurant and settled on a Tapas restaurant - sat there for quite some time enjoying our food and the sunshine .. then on we walked a little further but my leg was really starting to ache, so rested on a bench - it was when i stood up again I realised all was not OK, I started to feel faint and lost my vision .... that's all I remember until I woke up in a Spanish ambulance!

I had had a seizure of some kind and they were taking me to Barcelona hospital!
I had an ECG and lots of other tests - was feeling quite dizzy and was very sick .. but the doctor although English being his second language was fantastic and put me and my hubby at ease (Hubby then proceeded to pass out due to stress - the copycat!!!)

Was released as all my tests came back clear and they couldn't pinpoint what had happened so I was allowed to go back - didn't have the greatest train journey back to Sitges - and didn't get to see any of Barcelona!

Looking at these pics from before we went - I don't look well at all :'(

What I wore:

Dress: Evie @ Peacocks.

Leggings: Tesco.
Boots: Barrett's.
Necklace: Asda.

I went straight to bed when we got back to the hotel and didn't get up till the next morning - still felt dizzy but loads better than I had done the previous night. Apart from all the bruises and grazes from where I had been lying on the floor .. I also had mud in my hair - a good look!!

Packed up our suitcases as we were heading back to France - had a few minutes to relax in the Spanish sunshine before leaving though.

Don't rain on my parade!!!

Yesterday should of been our Easter Bonnet Parade at work. Except the boiler broke in the school building and so the children were told not to come in - I was actually really looking forward to seeing them all in there bonnets - the children that did turn up and bring there hats looked fantastic!!

Not sure but it shows off my dress so I left it :D

Easter Bonnet Parades originally stemmed from the Palm Sunday walk as Jesus walked to Jerusalem - and in years to come Easter Parades took place before the Easter Sunday service at church!

I used to have a great time making my Easter Bonnets for the parade when I was younger - I won twice!! (See below) and won an Easter egg and a basket of fruit for my troubles ;P

I used to love the whole tradition of the march, with the band. carrying the flags and the people waving as we walked - it's not something you get to see as often now - well here in the UK anyway.

Wow I would still wear that checked skirt and those blue tights if I could, maybe not my brownie uniform - haha

Oh and once a poser always a poser!!;P

What I wore:

Dress: Florence and Fred @ Tesco.

Necklace and Earrings: Gifted - Avon Boutique.

Tights: Primark.

Shoes: Gifted.

Mushroom cakes and shiny trifle balls

It would of been my Nanna's 93rd birthday on Friday .. she died 3 years ago just a couple of weeks before the big 9-0!

When she was alive we used to have a b'day party for her every year - and she still used to do all the baking - she would make mushroom cakes and lemon curd tarts .. and always a trifle with shiny edible silver balls on top - so this post is dedicated to her!!

I wore this outfit to go run some errands, and go shopping may of picked up some bargains ;)

I went to the churchyard after that to visit my Nanna's plaque and take a pot of Gerberas!
