It went really well, thanks - I've been asked to sing at the Battery Xmas dance, so I'm going to do it. Had Xan's 6th birthday party tonight - sea themed party in a lighthouse on an island. They all climbed to the top of the lighthouse then went rockpooling before coming back in for sea-themed party food. They all had a fabulous tie and Xan was so exhausted that he fell asleep within minutes when he went to bed - LOL!

Maybe we could come to some kind of arrangement between us. I'm certain we'd be able to keep Stu happier than Frannie.

You'll have to fight me for him - I've been having a love affair with him for 22 years.

Well done, Anna! Good on you/

Rather enjoyed that episode - best one yet. Thought Xan might get a bit scared, but he enjoyed it and it didn't phaze him at all. Next week looks like Keeley Hawes is in is, so that could be good...

OMGs! I am totally bricking it - I will be performing, live, for the first time in eleven years tomorrow lunchtime. There's a local war re-enactment, and I've agreed to sing a couple of wartime numbers, so I'll be warbling my way through Chattagnooga Choo Choo and We'll Meet Again. However, the nerves are now setting in, and I have that horrid sinking-stomach and restricting throat sensation already. Now, if I can just remember the words when the moment comes, I might be OK. Wish me luck!

And why on earth was this piece of evidence (a blood-soaked shawl, apparently) never seen or heard of before now? I'm not convinced...

I really, really wish we were getting a visual version though!

3/10 - eek!

I definitely thought Robot of Sherwood was in improvement on the first two episodes. It was enough, along with the teaser for next week, which looks like it might be very good, to make me decide to watch next week for sure. This week was to be the final chance for me - a sort of three strikes and you're out kind of deal, but it was entertaining and rather enjoyable, so it hooked it back out of the goodbye territory for me. Xan is really enjoying it, so I'm going to have to go back and get hold of the Eccleston and Tennant eps for him to see as well. I think he'll really enjoy those.

Awww, thank you, Anna! My natural hair colour is a dark blonde - almost onto a mousy brown - but as you can see from the previous pics, I recently had my hair a lighter shade of pink - I bleached my hair before that so the colour would take and be a proper pink shade. I then decided I fancied something brighter and put this one over the top of the other pink. It's only a semi-permanent dye, though, so it'll need refreshing more often!

Re-dyed my hair the other night, so now it's much brighter:

A couple more recent ones of me, now that I have my rose-pink hair (although, as of this evening, it'll be a darker, richer pink than this). The one on the left is the result of The Great Enpinkification Prject, which resulted in my having my rose-pink hair at the end of July. The one on the right is of me kissing a caged dragon at Alnwick Castle, whilst in full medieval maiden costume a couple of weeks ago.

What lovely pictures! Looks like you had a wonderful day. Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness together.

Xan will go back to school on Wednesday - he'll be starting Year 1. It will also be his 6th birthday this month, and then, two days later, it's my birthday. We have a fabulous birthday party planned for Xan this year, as he only had a very small party last year (we had just moved and were living at my Mam's place, so he didn't know many people and there wasn't room for a big party). This year he and all his pals will be going rockpooling (with a guide to tell them what everything is), and then climbing up inside a lighthouse - the party is on a little island you can only reach when the tide is out, as it has a causeway. He is SO excited about it (and so are we!), so are we! Everything will be beach/sea themed, so I'm working on ideas for that at the moment.

It's a long time since I read this book, so I'll not do the questions as I'll not be able to remember all the specifics, but I remember that I loved this book. I loved Claudius and how he just wanted a quiet life. He really does epitomize the phrase, "Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon 'em."
