Ca'n Picafort 2019

Can Picafort 2019 I’m currently laying on my sofa feeling sorry for myself because my amazing holiday is over. :( I’m home after an amazing 10 days.  I hope you’re all ready to hear about it ahah. Our flight was at 6am from Stansted. Having breakfast at 4am in Wetherspoons did feel a little weird. I don’t mind planes, I just don’t like when they land as it makes me feel sick so I had to put my head on James’s shoulder to stop feeling dizzy. I don’t do travel very well and that was a very long day of it. I was running on about 3 hours sleep.  We arrived in Mallorca on 19th May and stayed in the Hotel Haiti in Ca’n Picafort. On arrival we went to bed for about 6 hours. The hotel was lovely. Well, the pool was absolutely freezing but apart from that it was awesome. As we were all inclusive we had all our meals and drinks for free, in a way! I kid you not, I ate a shit load of brown rolls. I'm not too sure what they were but they were sooooo good! The food ...

Come shopping with me

Welcome to my first post! Yay!

One thing I love to do is go shopping (who doesn't?)

It was my weekend off work so my sister Abby, my mum and I went down to Longwater Retail Park to do some Christmas shopping.

We started at The Range. There were Christmas things everywhere, it was bloody fantastic! I love everything about Christmas and seeing all the decorations made me super excited! I love The Range as you can get super affordable everyday items there - they literally sell everything you will ever need. For example this unicorn mug. I mean, how cute is this? 

It would make an amazing stocking filler for Christmas.





                     

It was then onto Next for some lunch.The Norwich branch has a Costa Coffee. They had their Christmas drinks available so I had a caramelised orange and cream latte which was delicious and a cheese and ham toastie, my favourite. My nan makes really good ones but then again your nan's food is always the best. While in Next, we looked around all the clothes and nightwear! I live in dressing gowns and pyjamas when I'm just lounging around the house on my days off, or a nice thick jumper to keep me warm on the colder days when I do decide to venture outside. Next is by far one of my favourite shops. Theyhad loads of cute Christmas decorations and gifts too. If you have a Next near you, you should totally check it out!













Now who loves a good garden centre?






 The last place went to on our shopping trip was Notcutts in Norwich. I have been there at least 3 times this month - normally I go about 3 times a year. Every year, my family and I would go here to each buy a new Christmas decoration for the tree. When once of us moves out we can take all the decorations we have collected over the years to our new house which I think is a really cute idea. In Notcutts, my sister came across these glasses that make the Christmas lights change into different things like reindeer and presents. I tried them with my friend Katie a couple of weeks ago and it was highly entertaining, even for a 21-year-old. It was like walking into Santa's Grotto as soon as you walked in, it was very magical. One of my favourite things to do in Notcutts is to sniff all the candles - one in particular smelled amazing. It was sea salt and thyme and it was one of the nicest 
smelling candles I've ever smelled. It's definitely going on my Christmas list.




















I don't get to spend much time with family as we all have quite busy schedules, so it was nice to spend some time together.
