Laughter

-
Because a family that laughs together has more fun.
In front of Victory at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard
 Because sometimes the simplest things give most pleasure.
Crazy Golf in Bournemouth
Because sometimes you find a place that has the same sense of humour as you do
The Birds' Party in the Summerhouse at The Vyne

Because waiting for things can be nerve-wracking, and laughter is an inevitable release.
Go Karts at Beaulieu

Because Grandparents can be so lovely when they stay on holiday just to share your birthday and then give you a present like this!!! So you, boy!
The camouflage piggy bank off Ma and Da

Because your favourite programmes make you laugh. And sometimes you know you shouldn't.
Top Gear's Police cars; the green one has 'It's the Filth' backwards on the bonnet

Because the best laid plans aft go astray, and it can be so funny when they do.
The Indestructible Toyota Hilux; destroyed

Because sometimes words aren't necessary. Bubblegum ice cream, anyone?
The Princess and her blue tongue.

    It looks like you had a lot of fun and made some really magical memories! What else is life for, if not for laughter and memories? :)

    Best wishes,

      Too true! I laugh a lot myself; it really is the best medicine!

      I was really aware as I loaded the posts this year that they are actually my main form of display; I don't do lots of photos in the house that I update often, nor do I do a lot on Facebook (too fiddley) but I do load up my blog with pictures, so every post might as well capture my life as it is!So I hope there are lots of happy family shots.

How did you start writing your blog?

And when you got your first comment how did you feel? I found a new blog friend this week and commented on her post, then another and then another. I like reading back posts when I find a new person. It makes them more of a full personality to me. But it got me thinking; how did I start writing my blog? And when did I get my first comment (and who off?) My first post was called Angel Jem; From Mess to Less.  Ho hum, that aim has never quite happened, has it? And my first commenter was the lovely Cherry Menlove. I'd been a blog-hopper for ages, had been leaving comments on others blogs and then decided I should probably dip my toe in and go for it. Cherry Menlove was one of my favourite reads, and I was delighted that she stopped by and commented! Back then (2007) there didn't seem to be that many blogs out there. Everybody knew Posy and Yarncraft and Cherry Menlove and Dottie Angel , and people popped up for a few years and then disappeared. Some blogged to promote...

My Latest Trick...

I really need to introduce you to my latest hooky love, before it gets finished and I end up not telling you the back story. Let me show you what I'm on about first; World, meet Autumn Ripple Blanket (Autumn for short). You see, I have a granny square with flowers and a black background blanket that I'm desperate to finish for my bedroom, and a list of decorative items I'd like to do for Autumn and Christmas, so I sat down last week to make an Autumn Inspirations board on Pinterest (like you do) and made this; https://www.pinterest.com/angeljem5/autumn-and-fall/ and I loved the colours and the feelings it aroused in me. Colour-wise I am a warm autumn, but very often misbehave and don't wear them (long reason; won't say now) but I do love them, and the whole Season of Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness bit, so the board keeps filling up with pure autumnal inspiration. Until this one hits my eye. From The Glamorous Housewife's site . And the colours are be...

Wednesday Wind Up: How a little of what you fancy goes a long, long way.

Whatever else you do today (hello! I'm writing this a day late on Thursday: better late than never) go and vote. I don't care who you vote for, just vote. And if there's nobody you want to vote for, go and spoil your ballot. Spoilt ballots get counted as well, and can be a form of protest. On to Wednesday Wind Up. I've had a bit of a slow wake up this week, I think I either have a water infection or a cold, I find it so hard to get out of bed and into work. Or perhaps the sunny mornings just make me wish occasionally I was still a SAHM. Oh, the things I could do with a few days at home now! Never mind, that's not my season. I work 9 to 4 most days, so that's what I do. What am I reading this week? I finished reading Gone Viking by Helen Russell. It was funny, and touching, and all the things I wanted it to be. A good happy read, so that was fun. I also finished Happy by Fearne Cotton. It was interesting: while I was reading it, I could hear Fearne...
