Sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare - only time will tell :-)

Evening world:wave:

Had a lovely lovely Buttercup family day at Whitby today and totally enjoyed it:D. Great to spend time with each other away from the home environment. We reminisced just where the time had gone with the little Buttercups , or not so little Buttercups these days:)

Weather was a tad chilly to say the least but the fresh air seemed to perk up our spirits. Mr B purchased the little angels an ice cream each and I duely handed over a fiver and waited outside for the change.......to be told I owed him another 2 quid.....such a soft touch;)

Had a walk up the 199 steps to the abbey and waited in the YHA cafe with a cup of tea whilst the others made use of the English Heritage pass. I was dying to buy a £2.50 slice of coffee cake to go with the tea but I reminded myself of the ice cream stinging and was lead away from temptation:A

Then onto the chippy to purchase a fish and chip dinner - total of £17. Took it back to the car where I had stashed plates,cutlery, salt, vinegar,sauce and a bottle of pop and drove onto a little seaside resort called Sandsend where we parked up and had a semi picnic :T

Happy memories.....the cost....priceless

Enough sentiment from moi

Ooh that sounds great DB - I can smell the chips now, Whitby has the best fish n chips in the world!

I love Whitby and have spent many happy days there.

Ooooh it was a lovely day all round:D. Fish and chips were indeed purchased at the shop by the harbour and were lush:T. Have often walked by the Magpie Cafe (the posh one on the front) but the ques and the price always puts me off....hey maybe when I'm mortgage free I may indulge:rotfl: Going back to basics was really great, the raw approach....walking, brisk wind and fish n chips....by heck it's grim up North:D

Right,back to life and back to reality after a lovely weekend:D

Starts with Mr Buttercup embarking on a diet/fitness regime....he is still gorgeous but admits the man bo*bies are getting beyond a joke;)
I don't mind because diet means less money spent on food, of course I am not joining in with such antics:)...I'm a perfect 10 but I wear a twelve:rotfl:

Looking towards a £300 op Thursday after Mr B gets paid which includes council tax freebie month so that will be rather nice:D. Still flying solo with my MFW challenge so inward excitement feels naughty but nice;)

May I leave you with a lyric....."carried away by a moonlight shadow"...a song from my youff which I heard on the radio today and reminded me of happy times with my family and not a care in the world:T

Sweet dreams

And continuing the first song quote....
"If he's extra large well I'm in charge
I can work this thing on top" :rotfl:.

And if he's XXL then what the hell, every penny don't fit the slot


Not entirely sure if they are all right, but you get the message

Hey gallygirl and elantan:wave:

Thank you for sharing the humour:T. Very much appreciated:D

Today I was reminded of the p word.....prom dress :eek: I cannot hide no longer and I must face up to my responsibilities of being a modern day yummy mummy:rotfl: (said in jest obviously);)? I have got to knuckle down and begin a serious search for the perfect meringue...and by gum do I loathe the entire shopping experience:mad: But I have got to be adult about it and get on with the task in hand......bork!!! So our mission will begin on Saturday and I've just got to be brave:A

May I leave you with the lyric of the day:D. "I saw the crescent....you saw the whole of the moon" ..... Genius:T

Love that too (I already have my evil twin Natty, maybe you're our little sister ). I'll match you and raise you with:

" I'll be on my holidays
They'll be doing their rounds
They'll ask me how I got her I'll say
I saved my money
They'll say isn't she pretty
That ship called Dignity" - sorry, bit long but reminds me of all the folk on here beavering away with our goals :T.
