Clacton on Sea

Hey everyone,

How your summer been so far? The Olympics are well underway now, which is really cool because its bringing everyone together. For example the other day just to get a glimpse on the Men’s 100m (Mr. Bolt, under 10 seconds!) my cousin and I had to run into some random barbers. Which was only open at that time of night for everyone to watch their television lol. (Totally missed the 200m last night though *sigh*)

But that’s not what this post about. Due to the Olympics its quite difficult to take holiday, which is a bummer because its summer and I want to have fun! Anyways I thought it would to nice to visit the coast with the family, the lucky location was Clacton-on-Sea. I haven’t been there since I was a kid and nothing, nothing has changed, exactly the same as I remembered it. We caught it on a good day it wasn’t really busy so we had plenty on space top make as much noise as we wanted.

As always we totally over packed on food which meant we had to lug some food back. The sun was shining and the light sea breeze was blowing, all was good. Stresses and foolishness washed away in one brown wave, just being in a different setting makes everything feel better. Catching jokes with friends and family and just letting go. We messed around going on the most ‘uncomfortable rides ever’ and getting body art tattoos.



Me making the most of it in fat-ass sunnies haha



Seriously why is the water so brown, complete opposite to water in Dorset (check out my previous post for a look). Didn’t stop me from getting involved though, you know had to dip a toe lol.

Overall it was good finished off amazing fish’n’chips, don’t know why but they always taste better at the seaside *hmmmm*.But yeah this place has nothing on Durdle Door. The town part of it was a bit too sleepy and quiet for my liking – but maybe that’s the Londoner in me freaking out lol

Hey everyone,

Hope your all well.

The other day I thought today is the day I’m going to clear out my wardrobe, as annoying as it is we all got to do it so why not now right? So in I go, digging and pulling out clothes that to be honest haven’t seen the light of day in ages. And before I know it my room is a mess I can’t see my floor or bed just these colourful mountains of clothes and I’m less then half way in the wardrobe.

…Hmm I’m bored now and hungry... and look the girls  have invited me to dinner I can’t let them down right? …yeah these excuses went on for days and I still haven’t finished, some things are hiding in suitcases *shh…* lol :D

But its got to done, I have learned one good tip though BE HARSH, ask yourself when am I going to wear this? And when was the last time I worn it?

So I eventually got things in a decent order and its already getting messy again! Sigh…What was the point?

Look how happy I am with Panda Paul

I found these cute panda mittens though I wore them straight away

Oh well in a way I guess it makes them even more cute :)

Do you guys have any tips any cleaning the wardrobe? And how do you stay focused?

Durdle Door

Hi everyone,

After Grandma’s party everyone was really tired and feeling a bit low, so to make the most of the ‘summer’ weather myself and a few family members decided to go to the beach. But not the usual Brighton, South End etc. Because we all seen it before and to be fair most of my memories the water was brown, there were hard pebbles and it was freaking cold. Although I’m sure they’ve probably given it a nice clean by now but still…so we went to Durdle Door.

Isn't it great, I like this picture because its looks fake :) - its not!

Believe it or not this is the UK O_O

It’s not like a resort or anything so it was quiet and peaceful, there wasn’t shops and attractions it’s just a stunning piece of coast to mediate and relax. The water was beautiful and it was surprisingly warm the younger children puddle and myself and a few of the elder lot decided to tackle the cliff. Once we got up to the top…wow! I know this sounds cheesy but you just feel at peace with the world and really appreciate your life.

I would definitely go back, its took us a while to get there but it is SO worth it. As summer is nearly over I’ll try to find a beach closer to London that is a bit closer so more people can come.

Any recommendations?

Hey everyone,

Sorry this is a blog about nothing really, I’m just in high spirits. Not that anything out of the ordinary has been going on, I just feel really appreciative and lucky for what I have. Which reminded me of a post one of my friends put on Facebook.

‘The happiest people don’t have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have.'

I think this is a  good phase to live by. It all hit me when I was on my way home from work and I come across this flowering tree. I think everyone knows this deep down but to refresh your vision and spirits.
