November......what a month

I've been so busy this month I seem to have missed updating my blog. But I'm back now (hopefully).

2nd November - James Bond 007 - Skyfall
A bunch of us went and saw the much talked about movie. I really liked it and thought Daniel Craig looked amazing as usual. Two thumbs up

3rd November - Thorpe Park
Louisa, Danielle, Richard, Steve & I went to one of the theme parks in the UK. It was wicked, had a brilliant day. Reminded me of when mum & dad used to take us to Australia's Wonderland. The rides were super fast and scary and we managed to get around to all the ones we wanted. Although stupidly we went on a water ride and we got soaked (whoops). We got there about 11amish and didn't leave until 10pmish it was a massive day. Also got a ride home in Steve's new car, fancy.

6th November - Dad's birthday

10th November - Softball

16th November - Dancing at Roadhouse
Natasha, Natalie & I met up and had a few too many during happy hour but had a bit of a giggle. Didn't stay long but it was fun anyway.

15th November - Mum's birthday

17th November - Australia vs England - Rugby at Twickenham Stadium
Helen & I got tickets to watch the game, it was AMAZING! And of course Australia won! Whoo hoo








19th November - Jen's birthday
So noticed in my diary that someone had written their birthday! I made chocolate cupcakes, put some sprinkles on it and took it downstairs to her desk only to find out she had the week off! Can you believe it!!! Jen's team was excited though as they got to eat the cupcakes! Oh well better luck next year.

21st November - Bingo
Angela, Sophie & I decided to hit the bingo hall in Stratford. It was hilarious. The food was cheap and cheerful, lots of people there taking it very seriously. We each bought a dabber (mine is red) and went dabtastic. So much fun we registered as members and are going back in January for another session. Angela even won £6 which has now been put into our kitty winnings.



24th November - Softball

26th November - Twilight
Possibly one of the worst movies we have seen this year. All 10 of us met up to see the last installment. Oh well they gave it a shot.

28th November - Team dinner - Burger & Lobster
My team and I headed to the local restaurant for dinner and the choices were Burger...... or Lobster...... It was really nice. I went for the lobster and it was fun to have to crack the shells to get our dinner. They did supply us all with bibs to ensure we stayed clean. The waitress even told me that there were 1300 lobsters delivered each week and they were kept in a tank underneath the restaurant.

29th November - Movember bake sale
The boys in the office have been busy growing facial hair this month so a bunch of us at work got together and baked up a storm. There were brownies, sticky toffee cake, apple flan, muffins, cupcakes, banana choc chip cake and more. We set it out all at midday and by 1pm it was gone!!! We managed to raise £253............ what a fantastic result.

30th November - Wildlife Photographer of the Year / Mum & Dad met in 1968
The girls and I headed to the exhibition at the Natural History Museum. Each year it seems to get better and the photos submitted are stunning. It was inspiring to walk around and read about each photo, where it was taken, who took it. I wouldn't mind the skills or the camera to be able to do that too.
