MR and his friend are currently tiling the kitchen floor with cermaic tiles. This is to stop the doggies from digging up lino! So whilst they’re doing that I’m sat in the front room watching (yes you’ve guessed it!) the Grand Prix qualifying. I’m determined to watch every single minute of the Grand Prix this year because it’s so good! LA=ast week was riddled with controversy after Massa let Alonso pass after a team order. Team orders are banned so Ferrari were fined. Anyway I won’t go on, I know how I bore you.
Well doggies had operations yesterday. Gemma had her back claws taken off because they were floppy. Megs has now been spayed so she has stitching along her belly. She looked so vulnerable last night. She didn’t like me at all. She was blaming me because I left her at the vets who then hurt her. It was so upsetting as she was running away from me. 
She is much better today and is friends with me again. We’re not quite the same but she’s still poorly. They’ve both been banned from walkies for 10 days but due to Megs’ surgery, she’s also been banned from jumping, running, playing, going up/downstairs. Poor thing! In order to try and keep her from doing this we’ve had to keep them in their crates a lot and have to stop them from playing with each other. For the next 10 days they’re going to have a bit of a boring life bless them. But as long as they get better then they’re just going to have to live with it! It makes me feel so cruel though!
Today I went into town to get a spirit level for the boys. I also went to Pets at Home to buy Megs a new duckie. The duckie is her favourite cuddly toy and she’s just destroyed her third one! So I bought 3 today! One to give to her now and 2 spares! I went to TK Maxx to look for some new shoes for work as my current ones now have a hole in them! So I came out with 3 new pairs! 1 black pair with a heel, 1 pair of Rocketdog black flats and 1 pair of flat purple sandals which can be for work or casual. I’ll be putting them to the test on monday!
Brr I’ve just got really cold so I’m going to head off and snuggle up to watch the Hungarian quali!

I went shopping with my friend today. I needed new shoes for work since there is now a hole in my normal ones! Do you reckon I got new work shoes?! Nooooo!! BUT! I did buy some new Croc like shoes, some pillows, a new cardigan and a new bra!
We then went to meet my fiance and his friend and went to Pizza Hut for food. Then we went to the cinema to see Toy Story 3. MR wanted to see it in 3D and as he’d gone to see SATC 2 with me, the deal was that I had to go see Toy Story in 3D with him! Anyway it was awful! My eyes cannot cope with 3D at all. I had a headache before the film even started! So I didn’t get to see Toy Story in the end because I left very early on. I was so disappointed because I really wanted to see it!!!
Well today it was MR’s grandmother’s birthday and her chapel/church was celebrating 150 years. So I had to go to the service. Now I have no problem with religion nor people believing in whatever they want. I don’t believe in a one god but I do believe that a lot of Christian values are good values to be living to. Anyway, I hated the fact that I had to go to church because to me, it doesn’t celebrate faith. To me, it’s not fun at all. Someone preaching at you is not fun. The preacher they had today really got on my nerves. He was preaching at us that all we do is complain. Yeah I had something to complain about… this condensending prat talking down to everyone! The whole better than thou attitude really bugged me! He did nothing to persuade me to go to church more often. In fact he did the exact opposite.
See when I was a child I used to go to the Band of Hope meetings where the preacher would tell us stories from the Bible and would combine it with group activites and colouring and stuff. Now that was fun! I really did enjoy that. It was a great night with friends. But now it seems that the whole attitude has changed. Once you start going to adult services, it seems that all they want to do is nag at you that you don’t do enough blah blah blah. I felt like that man today killed any joy that was to be had in believing in God. Had not been stuck sat between MR and his mum I probably would have walked out because that man annoyed me so much!!
[end of rant]
Anyhow! Grand Prix time now! I am very very tempted to go get an Indian takeaway as well. I would really enjoy it! 
Hmmmm temptation!

I went to my (other) taid’s birthday party this evening. He was 90 yesterday!! I don’t see him mich these days because I don’t really get on with my nain – she is quite a handful! She is so mean to my mum it’s unbelievable. It’s only after you really find out. The less said the better really.
Anyway, most of the family was there but the main person I had wanted to see was my eldest cousin. I haven’t seen him in 12 years!! He’s in the army and has been away so it was so good to see him – safe. We had a chat and some hugs and it was just so lovely! I was quite emotional on the way home as it may be another 12 years before I see him again!! I don’t know why I was so emotional. According to my mum, I was close to him when I was a kiddie. I don’t really remember that much because I was so young. I have photos of us together somewhere but I can’t find them. Like I said, it was lovely to see him and his boys.
Also one my friends has split up with her fiance. Well I tell a lie, he split up with her. It was so shocking! I still can’t believe it. It also makes you appreciate what you have and makes you think to enjoy it whilst you have it. I don’t even want to consider what I’d do if it happened to me. I hope it never does. I’ve offered to go see my friend but she’s sorting stuff out so I’m hoping I’ll see her next week.
My Dad and his new family unit turned up yesterday. I was sleeping on the sofa when they turned up so it was quite an experience to tidy up in the space of a few seconds!! Nice to see them.
So all in all, emotional weekend. Now given what I said about making the most of what I have, I’m going to snuggle up on the sofa with my fiance.
P.S. Look…. no mention of Formula 1 for a change!!!!

I’ve just deleted like half of my friend list on Facebook. I decided that I don’t want to know what half these people got up to at the weekend and quite frankly, if the last time we spoke to each other was at school then why bother. I had thought about deleting my Facebook completely but there are some people on it that I genuinely want to keep in touch with.
I’ve been reading my latest blog posts…. they’re all F1 related!!! So apologies for the F1 babble! I don’t think anyone reads my blog so I guess I have no-one to apologise to! And in which case, my F1 babble is likely to continue!!
Anyhow I best be off… need to go find something nice for tea this evening. Something which doesn’t entail to much cooking as I am the one who will be cooking!!

Wow Formula 1 is getting interesting!! Quite some controversy in the Red Bull team! During qualifying on saturday (or maybe during practice on friday) Vettel’s new front wing broke. So the team removed Mark Webber’s new wing to put it on Vettel’s car…and so Webber ended up with the old version of the wing. So Mark Webber was annoyed (to say the least) on saturday.
So in the race on sunday, Vettel was in P1 and Webber in P2. Webber made a better start and was heading towards the first corner when Vettel tried to push him to the wall. Webber didn’t take any of it (and as Coulthard pointed out, Webber had the racing line) and Vettel ended up going off track. Plus Lewis Hamilton and Vettel touched which meant Vettel had a puncture!!
Anyway, long story short, Webber went on to win the race (yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!) and as he passed the chequered flag he said on his team radio “Yay not bad for a number 2 driver!”……. whoa snide remark but I don’t blame him! I felt so bad for him when I heard about them taking his wing off him but I was so glad and happy that he won… because a) I’m a fan and b) one up on Vettel and the team!! Hehehe!
Urgh feeling rather ill now because I’ve eaten 3/4 of a packet of popcorn!

Today we had new lino fitted in the kitchen and hallway. We used to have carpets but our two little puppies managed to pee all over it and dug it up. So we now have lovely wooden floor type lino. Looking good and it will be so much easier to clean. In fact, Megs has already made me proove this by peeing on it twice already!!!
Whilst I was waiting for the carpet-fitter, the doggies were out in the garden. They’ve been busy chewing at tree cuttings and running around like crazed idiots. I managed to get an oh so cute photo of them sunbathing!
Short post but I have to go!! Chinese takeaway beckons!

Well I went to Chester yesterday on a shopping spree!! I wanted to buy new clothes for work as it’s getting to be hot and I haven’t really got breezy clothes for work. Anyway, as it turnes out, I only spent £9! With that £9 (and some vouchers) I managed to buy two tops, some earrings, Star Trek (movie) on DVD, Glee on DVD and Dr Parnassus on Blue Ray. We had lunch at Pizza Hut and it was a lovely day.
We got home by about 3.30pm so we took the doggies to Llanberis for a walk. It was wonderful. So lovely!! I took some photos which I’ll upload eventually. We were walking back to the car when we saw another Beagle (a male) and it’s owner. So we got talking and we mentioned how we’re thinking of breeding Gemma and this man said he wanted to stud his dog out. Anyway, Gemma and the male Beagle were having a good time and were very friendly!! So we’re going to contact the man again if we decide to proceed with breeding. It was such a chance meeting!! Amazing!
So today was Father’s Day. Emyr went to see his parents whilst I went back to my hometown to see my Dad. When I got there Dad wasn’t in!! 
I saw my Taid and my Mam and my little baby brother. Then I went to do my weekly shop at Tescos and spent £118!! That was all on food. All in all it was a good day!
I’m currently watching Titanic. It’s such a good film. I always find the story of the sinking to be so sad. It’s just sad to think that something which looked so majestic has been lost. :’( There was a Titanic exhibition in London a while ago. It showed all the recovered artefacts from the Titanic. I wish I had gone down to see it as I’m sure it would have been marvellous.
Speaking of London, I saw my friend from London today. He’s up for the weekend. I haven’t seen him in ages! I’m hoping to go to stay with him during the summer. We’re planning on going to see the Priscilla musical as we both loved the film. He’s seen it once already but he’ll go again as it was so good!
Right I best be off to see what mischief my fiance and the dogs are up to!

So firstly I’ll explain the title. It’s a line from a Lily Allen song – “Him”. It’s all about questions about, if God exists, what’s he like. And one of the lines in the song is the one above. I like just because I’m an accountant who works in tax!! Ahh anyway, a bit random but I’m listening to her album in the car at the moment.
My friend and I went to a Body Shop party last night. I’d been invited over to my neighbour’s house where she was having the party. Now just some background info, the Body Shop sell makeup, body lotions and that sort of stuff. I’m not a makeup-y type of girl. It was fun! I spent £31 on some shower gels, a foot scrub and a pillow mister thingy. The pillow mister thing is from the Deep Sleep range. From what I understood you spray this mister on your pillow and the smells is supposed to make you sleep better. I thought I’d try it as I feel like I don’t sleep very well.
Well my fiance and I went into town today so I could start spending my vouchers! I haven’t spent them all but so far I’ve bought a book about bitches (as in dogs), a pair of scissors and fathers day cards for our dads. Then we had a look around HMV but we didn’t buy anything. We then went to Carpet Right and ordered new lino for our kitchen floor. The doggies have managed to chew up a corner of the carpet and so we’ve decided to replace it with lino as it’ll be easier to clean.
We bought the new game Blur from Tescos. It’s so cool! I loved playing driving games when I was growing up (that and Sonic games!). My favourite driving game is and probably always will be Need for Speed Most Wanted. That was excellent! My fiance is playing it now and I think he might be addicted as well!!
I’ve just realised that it’s 11.38pm! I should probably get to bed. Nos da pobol!

Oh boy this updating is hard work! I’m trying to get all my TCG pages back up via WordPress but editing it is taking time! It’s taken all of last night and tonight to get one page back up! So for all the TCG owners, I’ll be active again ASAP!
Well I’m watching Lost. I think I may have mentioned in the previous post that I’ve been watching Sex And The City serieses and now that we’re done with them, my other half has decided that I have to watch Lost. So we’re currently on episode number 8 of the first series. It’s pretty good but I’m just waiting for it all to turn weird on me! I’ve seen most of the last series but it didn’t make much sense.
Haven’t been feeling very well today. Been so tired. I decided not to go see my Taid tonight but I’m going tomorrow instead. I used to live with him and since I moved out in February I’ve tried to go see him every week. It gets difficult sometimes as I have to travel 30mins to see him and then 50mins to get back home after. I know I should stay there but I just want to go home to my own bed. Very odd as it was my home for 26 years but now it doesn’t feel like home. I feel like such a traitor saying that but it’s true.
Anyway, I’m off to bed now because I’m still tired. Ta-ta
