Well our day trip to Broughty Ferry went as well as could be
expected and of course it rained. So on with the waterproof jackets and wellies
it was and we set off to find somewhere to have lunch. We decided on Italian
and went to a small restaurant for some pizza, I have to say it was one of the
best pizzas I have ever had and they had an amazing selection of ice cream too
from Dragon Fruit and Maracuja to Irn Bru.
After our amazing lunch we went for a stroll around the
shops hoping to work off our pizzas so we could go back for some ice cream. The
shops in Broughty Ferry are really nice with lots of different things to choose
from, we even managed to buy a birthday present for one of our friends a whole
week in advance, usually we leave it to the last minute so I was pretty
impressed with myself for being so organised! Unfortunately we were still full
from lunch so we didn’t manage to go back for ice cream but I’m sure we will go
back another day to make up for it!
I hope you are all looking forward to the Paralympics, I’ve
been watching the opening ceremony while I have been writing this post. Some of
the stories behind the athletes are incredible; they vary from soldiers injured
in battle to survivors of the London 7/7 bombings and more. Seeing how they
have managed to overcome their disabilities and become world class athletes is truly
inspiring, I don’t know about you guys but I don’t know how they do it, they
really are ‘super humans’.

Another thing I’m looking forward to is the new series of Doctor
Who which starts on Saturday! I have to admit I am a huge fan and I get far too
involved in it, when Rose was left behind on the parallel world I cried for
days, I still haven’t managed to watch that episode again, it has to be one of
the most emotional scenes ever broadcast on television! I wonder if this year I’ll
finally be able to watch Doctor Who without hiding behind a pillow, however I know
if the Weeping Angels are in this season again I’ll still be switching the
lights on and off before I go to bed and blinking numerous times to make sure
there aren’t any of them hiding in my closet…

Well that’s all for now, I’m off to start looking things out
for moving back to Edinburgh which I really can’t be bothered doing as I despise
packing!
Until next time TTFN x
