Favourite Friday Things...

I feel this might become a feature (*looks proud*)

So here it goes my favorite things this Friday...

Wimbledon -  What has been happening at Wimbledon? I have been tweeting about this earlier in the week and very proud of my hash tag #federerfail. (Good eh!?) This is one of my favorite times of the year with Mum and I booking off next weekend to watch the women and men's final!

Bikinis- I have just purchased two bikinis from H&M for my holiday in August. With one of them being in the Sale! Good times! Hopefully they fit!

Pay Day - Yes it is that wonderful day again!

Mother India - If you are in Glasgow anytime soon you should head here! I had the Lamb Rogan Josh which was amazing.

Glastonbury- I will be spending this weekend and the next week scrolling through photos of celebrities getting ideas for T in the Park. 

Hope you have an amazing weekend!

Weekend Antics

Hello lovely readers!

I hope you had a lovely weekend!

I certainly did as I was whisked off to Glasgow by the BF. We had such a fab weekend relaxing, shopping and visiting various Irish bars.

A couple more things....

Howdy everyone,

Hope you are gearing up for a great weekend. I certainly am! I'm off to Glasgow this weekend with the BF and will be spending some of my hard earned cash on clothes and make-up! Post to follow!

So I won't be blogging over the weekend but will be back to full blogging capacity by next week. A couple of things I thought you readers might be interested in are these cool links....

Fun in the Bone Household!

Ahhhh my wee family unit! We do have some really good times in the Bone household. So good in fact that everyone always enjoys my stories about what we have been getting up to and the dramas that have unfolded. I hope you do too...

Top 5 places in Fife

I love love love Fife. It is one of the most diverse counties (I'm slightly bias)! Fife tends to get quite a bad reputation. I'm not denying that there is some deprevation here and there but I want to share my top 5 places with you....

Brownie Camp

This weekend I filled my time by going to Brownie Camp with 24 Brownies.

It was great fun but very very hard work. The girls had loads of activities to keep them entertained whilst I completed marathon runs of Chinese Whispers and Heads Down Thumbs Up.

On the Friday night I didn't get much sleep, as the girls were up until about 2am and then woke at 6/7am. Pffffft!

I was knackered. However, it was one of the best weekends I've had in a while. I also picked up some useful tips for TITP.


Let me know in the comments what your tips are for camping/festivals.

Halfway through the year

So here we are in the middle of June.

How the hell did that happen? I'm pretty sure I was still wearing my penguin Christmas jumper 2 weeks ago. :P ;)

At the beginning of January I set myself the challenge of creating New Years Resolutions. To be fair I try to choose 1 every year but it never seems to work out. So this post is an "update" shall we say on my resolutions for 2013.

Keep Calm and Walk on!

If you missed my first blog about the Moonwalk 2013 you can read it here..

The big day had arrived. It was Saturday 8th June and I was going to be walking 26.2 miles starting at midnight. WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!!!!!!!!!

But it was all for charity and that was the main thing.

I have to admit I was very nervous on Saturday. I managed to try and get as much rest during the day as possible. I spent most of the day in the garden on a sun lounger eating bananas and drinking LOADS of water.

Trying not to laugh as Mum takes a photo of me "relaxed"

I arrived at Leith Links at about 8:30 and seen the large pink tent where we were to gather before we set off on our walk. It was really frustrating to sit about when all you wanted to do was to get walking. However the entertainment was great and my favourite was the warm up section.

So here it is my mile for mile commentary of the night (sort of).

Moonwalk 2013

Some of you may or may not know that I took part in the Edinburgh Moonwalk 2013 last Saturday (8th June). So this post is dedicated to my training efforts over the last 14 weeks.

What is the Moonwalk?
For about 3 weeks I managed to convince my Dad that I was Michael Jackson "Moonwalking" for 26.2 miles. - ha!
However, the Moonwalk is a powerwalking challenge that takes place overnight. Walkers begin between 11.30pm and midnight and walk the different distances on offer.
New Moon - 6.55 miles- This is really for those who are not ready for the half or full moon but also for those under 16. We had a few 10 year olds taking part which was lovely!
Half Moon -13.1 miles- This is still a major challenge but good for those who want to build up before the main event.
Full Moon - 26. 2 miles - A full marathon. The goal is to complete 14 minute miles and the challenge in 6 hours. However, it isn't a race so you can finish at any time.
Over the Moon - 52.4 - Sheer Madness I tell you. This is two marathons back to back on the same day. You must complete this challenge in 14 hours.

We also had three land challengers who had completed the London Moonwalk 4 weeks ago, then the Edinburgh and finally they were jetting off to Iceland Moonwalk the following Saturday.

Hats off to all of them....

Pin It Forward UK

Hi everyone!

As ever I am sometimes slightly late to the bandwagon and stumbled across this little campaign. To help launch Pinterest in the UK this handy wee hashtag has been created.

Already I have found loads of new blogs and pinterest accounts!

So, I've been using Pinterest for about 6 months now and as an avid crafter I use it for inspiration for new projects and gifts I can make!

Busy Busy!

The last couple of weeks have been super busy!

As some of you might know I have been training for the Moonwalk 2013 in Edinburgh.
The Moonwalk is a great event which helps to raise money for research into Breast Cancer. Women and Men can both enter however you MUST wear a bra for the event. You can compete in the Half Moon 13 miles or Full Moon 26.2 miles....OUCH! For more info check out here

I am taking part in the Full Moon
