Advent Calender Time. His and Hers
It's that time of the year when you allowed to indulge throughout the month, not feel guilty about it, mind you I am in not that bracket of oh no too much calories type of girl, as I say everything in moderation, minus this month it's the time to be jolly. We decided on cheap cheerful advent calenders from Poundland, as sadly left it too late on Lego one we really wanted, sold out everywhere, sad face, lets not talk about it, I'm not bitter..
Of course Hello Kitty advent calender for me, it's me after all, and for him Star Wars as his huge fan of it. Funny enough my chocolate tastes better than his, perhaps needs sweetness for the kids, Star Wars more catered for adults, therefore more stale taste to it, I do find it funny identical doors and shapes of chocolate yet different tastes between the two of the advent calenders.
I must say beauty advent calenders seen on blogs, sadly not in my price range but I enjoy it from afar live through the bloggers as do like seeing what's behind each door, have you done advent calender post, send me links in the comment section, love to see yours.

Camden Coffee House
![]() |
Jacket potato with coronation chicken, cheese, butter with side dish of salad. |
Give me a comfy chair, tea, food and my sketchbook I'm a happy girl. Coffee camden house has nice relax chilled environment about it, passed the test of seating, as for me I always need comfy chair and enough leg room, very important for me otherwise I cannot be comfortable (it's not me trying to be snobby or anything it's just with my chronic pains makes it difficult to sit for prolonged times without the adequate support). I enjoyed my meal, just the right amount of food, sipped on my peppermint tea and then done quick sketch, so excuse if the drawing is a bit crappy. Before leaving I did have cheeky mocha to give me extra boost for my journey home, which I won't lie got my mocha approval. Overall thumbs up from me.

Hello Folkstone
The beauties of the coast, and all it's full glory. Had little break away at the end of September, thankfully the weather was still summery. Sand beach, pebble beach and harbour. Enjoying the surroundings, having the inner child come out of me playing in the sand, using my crutch to draw out things in the sand, yep I am big kid. Folkstone has art scene which there is whole road full of galleries. I know you waiting for it, what did I think of the galleries, well as I only walked passed them I can't give my opinion but what I saw from windows display, defiantly talented artists. Sadly don't have pictures otherwise would of been part of my picture diary of Folkstone. Downside about the area is that it's not disabled friendly, a lot of steep hills, which made it difficult for me, so wasn't able to fully explore the area in it's entirety. The harbour made me want to take up fishing granted all of 1 minute though as can't imagine waking up crack of dawn to fish, the smell, the mess, yeah I am not fisherman but the idea was there.
Now winter is upon us, are you someone who still visits the coast during the colder months?

Outfit Of The Day/Night Going To Comedy Gig
Jacket: Diesel (very old), jumper: Primark, trousers: TK Maxx, shoes: Primark, heart bag: Christmas gift from my mum last year. On my nails: Rimmel, salon pro Kate range in shade hip hop.
It's been busy week with hospital appointments, so I'm glad to be posting this now. As you know by now I have to give a little back story to my post, the jumper I am wearing is new purchase as can you believe it I don't own jumpers, perhaps one or two but not one like this as the weather is changing thought it was time to buy something weather appropriate, not that I go around wearing little to nothing clothing just I more of case layer things. One it's long in length which I love, little lace adds more style to it. Then there's the next new purchase back to future shoes as my partner refers to it as, has large obsession with that movie(s), he spotted the shoes on sale, once I clocked on to it too, and it was in my size, yes, glory, had to be mine. Such comfortable simple stylish outfit, can still look good even when you feel like poo. Hopefully I be doing Halloween outfit, as I be actually dressing up, granted must remember to take pictures. So we shall see.
What do you think to my outfit? have you done outfit post recently if so send me a link in the comments section.

Omid Djalili Stand Up Comedy At Fairfield Halls
![]() |
One of his jokes was him doing this, won't give the joke away, spoil it for others who be attending the show. |
So glad to be finally blogging about this event, as my health is bit crazy at the moment, what's new, I know.. Despite being extra poorly, worried wouldn't be able to go, literally was in bed all day until needed to get ready, slapped on some make up so I looked presentable, nice outfit well I thought it was, which will be in separate post outfit of the day. Bought the tickets months ago to Omid Djalili stand up gig as one day I was surfing the net as you do, in particular fairfield halls website looking at what's coming up, there I saw it beaming in front of my very own eyes my favourite comedian is doing a stand up, couldn't believe it, bought the tickets without no hesitation even if meant living on beans on toast for a month, ok being dramatic but you get the gist I was going end of. As so many times acts are at places that I can't get too, but I won't go on about that, let's get back to this blog post, what it's about, me going to Omid Djalili stand up show.
The warm up act was hilarious, note to people who are late to shows you going to get shamed out by the comedians, be prepared to be the butt of the joke, it's all light hearted fun. No lie I laughed from start to end, being in the front row I got to experience eye to eye contact, Omid himself saw me laughing which won't lie made me smile. However it gets better, after the show, got to meet Omid Djalili himself, as he was doing a signing of his book also signing tickets, taking pictures. When getting autograph Omid said to me I remember you from the audience, saw me laughing a lot and then we had quick chat as we took a picture together. I've grown up watching him whether it be on films, TV shows, stand up, here he was in the flesh, I hugged him. Without shadow of doubt one of the highlights of the year for me. Glad I was able to drag my butt as it was great evening. Can't wait to read his autobiography, as not started it yet. So can't review that. Even now when looking at the pictures I smile.

Coming Or Going
My presence online hasn't been much as normal, can't say my life has been crazy hectic that's why, however just been ill a lot recently with other things, nothing life threatening don't worry, no "don't cry for me Argentina" moments. And if I'm honest my mood is like don't know if I am coming or going. My confidence as whole, self doubting myself hugely, but at the same time still determined, strange, right. I started this blog as wanted outlet for myself, somewhere I could escape, distraction and to put forward portfolio of me. I've been hesitate to blog because feel myself prejudging so much, instead of just letting it be. As they say we are our biggest critic. I needed to do this blog post as it's cathartic, yes my confidence is low, but it's working progress, however still don't take for granted the support I have, as too many times we see the perfect imagery of people's lives, with me I want to be open, whether it's me in my hospital gown, having a moan, or celebrating the good times, for me I want to be diverse.
The picture above taken when I was in Folkstone, just how my mood is the tide coming in and out, symbolises the mood, also the beauty of the sea, seeing beauty within yourself, wow, deep, not taken my antibiotics yet so I'm not trippy, haha.
Hows your mood?
