June Photo Diary: Sunshine, Weston and the Manics

I didn't get up to much hi-jinx in June because of the expensive trips we took in May to Paris and London. We did however have a heatwave which meant trips to beer gardens and lots of summer dresses

unreal for England 

spinning records on hot afternoons

our fridge broke during the heatwave so we were desperate for cold drinks under the shade of a beer garden

On one of our days off we took a trip to Weston Super Mare which is about an hour from Bristol. It has a pier by the beach, lots of arcades, a Ferris wheel and everything you expect from a seaside town

fish and chips is a requirement

forever too scared to go on these

so pretty in the sun

cutie with a Mr whippy

still as pale as ever despite a month of sunshine

We bought a last minute ticket to the Manic Street Preachers in Bristol Harbour. The harbour was such a nice place for a gig and it was nice seeing the Manics again. It made me feel a little better about not being at Glastonbury, just a little though! :P 

Photo Diary November Spawned A Monster

Sorry I haven't been able to post in ages :( but I'm back with some amazing news ---> I seen Morrissey live!!!
He opened with the Queen Is Dead, followed by Suedehead. I have to admit that I did get a little emotional mid-way through Suedehead hehe The atmosphere was amazing and I loved every moment of it
The setlist mostly consisted of his latest album, World Peace of None of Your Business. I like the title track but I think a lot of the other songs are quite lame (sorry Moz). He finished with Everyday is like Sunday. I couldn't have asked for a better encore <3
Belfast City Hall
I went to Belfast a few weeks ago to see Robert Plant for my Dad's birthday. To be honest, it was a pretty awful gig. Robert Plant has lost all his ability to perform and every song seemed to drag on forever. I would have left early if I wasn't with my family. Despite that, I had a lovely day in Belfast :)
I went to see Chris for his 21st :) He got a new guitar for his birthday (its in the background) I christened it Keef
I bought a build a bear. I named him Mick Jagger because he looks so groovy
I went to the Manic Street Preachers at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin last weekend. They played The Holy Bible in full before playing another setlist. I managed to dance to The Holy Bible which is a victory in my eyes :P James wore a sailor outfit and Niki wore an army jacket/glitter hehe
Im so glad to be home for Christmas, Im going to sit back and be lazy mess for a month :L
