Well I thought I would a little post as it was been a wonderful week or so.

Most of you know that a week last Sunday Tom and I got engaged :) So I was floating around!

Then on Thursday I got my results and I passed them both WOOHOO! ( exams down and only one left to go. It’s an absolute fucker so I really need to get my head down and crack on.

My ring arrived on Friday so I have spent the week grinning and looking at it sparkle!

Work is absolutely manic at the moment which is great but I feel like I am running around like a loon!

Well I did say it would be little as I am tired and can’t think what else to write hehe :)

I have not updated in a long time.

Life has been pretty manic with something in every weekend for the past two months I need time to just stop!!

I went to the races for the first time in July with the girls form work. It was fun and Lynne and I decided not to bet like the other girls were, we got a hot tip so we decided to place a bet and we won woo hoo.

It has also been the summer of marriage! Tom's cousin got married in Florida so we went to the reception a couple of weeks ago. It was nice and Sarah’s dress was simple and gorgeous.

We also went to Beth and Dave’s wedding last weekend. Beth’s dress was fabulous! It was a great day and it was really nice seeing Luke, Ellie and the girls. We really will have to go up to Durham and see him.

Yesterday was Nich and Joe’s day. Despite the chaos of trying to find somewhere to stay it was brill. I had booked a B&B that Ria was going to stay in. I explained we were going to a wedding at 1.30 so would like to come early throw our stuff in and get ready. When we get there the weird man I had called crazy george after talking to him on the phone told us that we couldn’t come in and he still had to do the rooms and told us to come back in the afternoon. Um bit late! We went and found ourselves a travel inn hehe.

The ceremony was lovely and the reception was brilliant! Each table was sweet themed with different sweets for everyone. We were on the haribo starmix table (I love you Nich haha). We almost had a fire on our table as well with the little boy and or his Dad (he claimed it was James) putting the napkin on one of the tea lights hehe.

Sam, Joe’s brother, managed to get me involved in the best man’s speech which was nice to be asked but oh my god I am a shy person and I nearly died having to stand up in front of a room of people I didn’t know hehe. I was had to read the lyrics to you’ll never walk alone.

Near the end of the reception the DJ played some nice rocky and metaly type songs. It cleared the floor of the mum’s and aunts and the younger ones head a bit of a head bang.

One wedding reception to go next weekend, hmm I have no idea what I am going to buy Gaynor and John! Then the wedding marathon is over!

Work has been veeeeeeeeery busy. I now work for a new person who is very demanding which although means I barely have time to think it will do me good and get my training right up to speed.

They are also sending me out to our woolton office as well to help build up the family department there. I love going there it’s a nice peaceful village office and it’s just up the road!

I get my results this week. I was confident when I finished my exams. I am still confident about family law but I am managing to panic myself about family practice. The long wait is horrendous and I just can’t wait for that A4 envelope to pop through the door either Wednesday or Thursday.

I have to start reading land again for my re sit in October and then if I work hard enough I will be finished HOORAH! Oh god I reeeeeeeeally hope I pass it in October!

Well that will do for now as I am thirsty and I want to go and get a drink.

Next update in November hehe
