Careful with that fuel Madam!

ok so if you are in the UK then you will know about the whole 'fuel crisis' going on at the moment, and that everyone is hurrying to get as much petrol/diesel on the tanks as possible before it all kicks off :)
so I will admit that I am not entirely sire what is going on but I am sure that I'm not the only one ;)
so what I understand is that the people who deliver the fuel might be going on strike so we won't have any fuel left over...therefore the government sent out a message saying that everyone should fill up their tanks and jerry cans to make sure that they aren't left stranded :P
HOWEVER, before any unions can go on strike, they have to give a weeks notice...but they have already agreed that they aren't going to because it is the Easter holidays and that is when people need fuel :)
one mildly entertaining sorry that has come out of this, is that a woman decided to keep her jerry cans in her kitchen, then proceeded to cook a meal...with FIRE. now if you know anything about petrol, you will know that it is EXTREMELY FLAMMABLE and that having fire around it is very very very very very very dangerous. So as expected, her kitchen caught on fire, and the story went on the news for the nation to see... and we all simultaneously sighed and asked our friends who would be so very stupid..... :D funny stuff
so that is about it really...I am doing quite well on the constant blogging front so I hope to keep that up over the holidays....maybe turning into more of a diary for me with entertaining quotes and stiff like that :D
so see you then....

Patrick wins everything

Just a picture of Patrick Star from SpongBob SquarePants :P

appy times!

hello to you all :)
fun and bloggy times ahead as I have found the Blogger app for my iPod touch and therefore hope to be using it a lot :) the convenience is almost overwhelming and I can type quite a lot fast on a touch screen than actual keys :P
as always I am going to say that I can hopefully be posting more frequently...do it for a few hours...then give up... :S and I am going to promise it again :P
but this time is is likely to be easier as I go on my iPod A LOT more than I go on my computer (i.e. every night!)
so basically whenever I become bored enough I shall be posting :D (and that is a lot XD )
plus, it will be easier to put photos and pictures on like this, because I don't store a lot on my computer, and they are mostly on my iPod.... therefore I will mostly post pictures that may make you smile and potentially laugh....we'll see...
I may also not even mention that I am putting a picture with the post so that should be fun times (not really!)
anyways I shall be off for now :)
ciao for now

Feeling Sporty? :D

So this weekend is Sport Relief weekend and I hope that you are doing something to raise money ;)

I'm running a mile this Wednesday, and although it doesn't seem like much, I have raised over £20 just for that...and with all of the other people doing it as well, that makes a healthy profit!!

And although most people might go on about how it is all for a good cause and stuff like that...although I agree, I am not going to talk about that!!

I am going to tell you about how celebrities are doing their bit for charity this year, mostly John Bishop and David Walliams :)

John Bishop did a week-long journey from Paris to London, and he called it "Bishop's Week of Hell" which, after seeing it, pretty much sums it up! Basically, he cycled from Paris to Calais in 1 day, then rowed across the English Channel with Davina McCall, Denise Lewis, and Freddie Flintoff in 1 day, then spent 3 days running from Dover to London!! This was all non-stop, with only a few hours of sleep between each day! This was really inspiring, because he is only a comedian, and not an athlete at all, so to do something as strenuous as that is really amazing in my eyes.

Also, David Walliams did his bit as well, swimming the Thames (in London) spending over a week swimming every day :O now the Thames is 346 kilometers....which is a

l o n g way! Now you may remember a few years ago when he swam the Channel, which is only 240km across, which is also amazing, but the fact that he has managed to top that is incredible!

So they are both really inspiring people, and they are doing it all for charity which is even better!!

So now you know, and now I shall finish :)

Thanks for reading

It's Mother's Day!

Now I will admit that I don't really know what to say about Mother's Day...

But I do love my Mum with all my heart and I want everyone to know that :)

This year I got her a balloon, truffles, flowers and a card....which is more than I've ever got her before...maybe because I have never been old enough to arrange that sort of thing before!!

I also cooked a meal for her last night as a special Mother's Day treat...because I don't cook meals a lot :P

and I know that it sounds odd how I cooked it last night (Saturday) rather than tonight...but my mum is a midwife, so she has late shifts (2pm-10pm) and night shifts (9pm-7am) and she is on a late shift tonight so she would miss all the time that I would be cooking, and we would be eating...so as she was on an early shift (7am-2pm) yesterday, that seemed to be the best time to cook!

So that is basically all I have to say on the matter...so yeah...

By the way, I have decided to post every weekend now... because as I am in my GCSE year, and they are only in 2 months, I need to focus on my studying during the week and the majority of the weekend so the blog has to be pushed further back in my list of priorities!!

So until next time :D

Disney......... Channel

I LOVE DISNEY.

I am not afraid to admit that to anyone...

Whether it's the original movies or the channel... I like most things about Disney...no matter how cheesy!! However when other people say that they like Disney they are almost always talking about the movies that were shown in the cinema...but when I talk about Disney, I am almost always talking about the New Generation of shows and characters on Disney Channel

You see, there are movies like The Lion King, The Little Mermaid and The Jungle Book...absolute classics, no doubt about that! The movies are the side that most people agree that they like, because they have grown up surrounded by them, therefore they have known the characters, plots and songs for their entire lives!

But there are also newer movies like the High School Musical trilogy and Camp Rock, which many people don't have as much of a fancy to....it's a shame really :/ basically these movies aren't quite the animated classics that we know and love, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't give them a chance! Yes they may be EXTREMELY cheesy but they have great songs, fun plots, and good acting...which many movies don't deliver nowadays.

Finally, I want to talk about Disney Channel itself... now in the last year some of the newer programmes haven't really made me want to watch them...but there are some that are entertaining, and that I would happily sit down and watch... these are programmes like Hannah Montana Forever, Wizards of Waverly Place and Phineas and Ferb. I will now explain why I like them so much... the original series of Hannah Montana was alright, although the acting could have been improved... but then they created the series finale and called it Hannah Montana Forever, so that the people watching new that it was one of the more special episodes. These episodes were more significant and necessary to the story, and they had more of a direction to them, as they were tying up loose ends, and generally bringing everything to a close. Now, I will be the first to admit that I actually cried the first and second times of seeing the final episode...NOT because it was the final episode, but because it was so sad!! But I will leave you to go and watch it and find out why... :P

Wizards of Waverly Place has always been good for me... and is made even better by it's longevity :D it's got comedy, tension, sadness, happiness, everything that you need to keep a show going... and after 5 years they are only just beginning to build up a little bit of tension towards the final episodes... but it's not happening just yet!!

Finally, Phineas and Ferb make my life complete :D it is a cartoon about two stepbrothers who make wacky inventions and have a pet platypus called Perry who is a secret agent... it is difficult to describe exactly how good it is, without you seeing it...because already by my description it sounds boring!! But out of the three that I have listed, I would most strongly recommend this one....because although it is a cartoon, it is still hilariously funny, and witty and just generally AWESOME!!

So that is it, I rest my case.... not that I had a case in the first place...but you get what I mean!!

Alright then... good bye
