Sorry I've been rubbish with posting! I have had a busy start to the year, I'm in my last year at university so obviously i had lots of exams to stress and worry about, then the new semester started and such so.
But I thought I would type a quick blog
whilst I have some spare time tonight, and whilst I have actually done something with my
day!
Today I had such a lovely day.
First of all, my boyfriend and I made blueberry
pancakes this morning, which were gorgeous and just so nice to have for a
change. I know its pancake day soon but it was nice to have them anyways. I saw
something online about them when I woke up and that made me really crave them.
My boyfriend and I planned on going on the
Tolkien Trail with my cocker spaniel in Preston, so we drove all the way to
near Clitheroe from my house taking about 40 minutes and then parked up in a
small little village. However we
could not find any of the paths or any signs or ways the go when we got there, so instead we
just ended up driving to the Sandyhurst college and then wandered round their
grounds and fields.
The buildings of Sandyhurst College were
amazing; they were just big old-fashioned grand buildings. There was also an
antique fair on so we thought we would have a quick nosey in, but it was £5 in
so of course we didn’t pay that! Haha. So we walked round all the woods, nearly
falling over several times in the fallen trees, and we all got stuck in lots of
bogs and mud baths. Pennie also almost gave a pheasant a heart attack as she
charged through the bushes and trees. Don’t think many people walked through
the woods as there were no paths or walk-throughs so definitely don’t think
that pheasant was expecting us! But it was actually really nice to just see
Pennie really enjoying herself, she much prefers chasing after rabbits and
rummaging through the bushes instead of being surrounded by other dogs and
people on busy fields or parks. Don’t think I would drive all that way out
again but it was a lovely day and so great to just spend time with my boyfriend
and dog.
We nipped into a place where our friend
works on our way back home, which was lovely just to go say a quick hello to
her and to see where she works. And of course we bought some cheeses from their
food hall ha. When we got home we had to bath pennie before doing anything else
as she was covered in mud and twigs as per usual.
Tonight has been nice and relaxed, we
watched Before Sunset which is a cute romantic indie film about a couple of people, and we ate
lots of homemade curry and sat cuddled up with my cocker spaniel, we definitely
succeeded in tiring out the dog!
