Had a blast at the SO Festival on Saturday night, SO Festival 2010 was much better than SO Festival 2009, in the evening me and my son went to the Embassy Theatre to do some free Ceilidh dancing (basically barn dancing) we where on the dance floor straight away and had a great time dancing with lots of nice people, we had a good laugh!. We got almost all the steps wrong, but that just made it more fun.

We both had a good work out, we where sweating a river by the end of the show, but we kept getting up for more, where a sucker for punishment when it comes to fun .

Had one of the best nights of our lives tonight during the SO Festival 2010.

We started off the SO Festival at the Embassy theatre to participate in the BBC Introducing broadcast live from the Embassy theatre in Skegness on Lincs FM

BBC Introducing is an oppertunaty where the BBC gives unsigned new talented bands, musicians and singer the oppertunaty to be heard by the masses on the radio, live on stage in the hope a music company will sign them up to be the next big thing in the music world, giving them a perfect oppertunaty to be heard.

Went to Tower Gardens our local park in Skegness and spotted a Male Mallard with a feather stuck up it’s nose hole and it made me smile

I love Photography I’ll take pictures of anything particularly if it’s unusual or funny and Ducks make a good Photography subject since they are so comical.

Just click on the Duck pictures to see a larger image of my photos.

Tower Gardens doesn’t have many ducks on the pond, but I have taken hundreds of pictures of Mallards over the 4 years we have lived in Skegness in Lincolnshire.

There are Duck all over Skegness on the park, waterway, boating lake and beach.

33 year old Andrew Grady hitch hiked for 55 days from London to South Africa to see England play against Slovenia.

Andrew started his Bizarre journey on April 25 and reached south Africa on June 17th the night before the England match against slovenia was to take place.

After a disappointing beginning with England struggling to score in their other two world cup games against the USA and Algeria Andrew brought England some good luck He saw his first live World Cup match on Wednesday night, watching England beat Slovenia 1-0 in Port Elizabeth.

Mr Grady had been Hitch hiking the traditional way of holding your thumb out in the air to catch a lift, but he later found out that in Africa holding your thumb out is the equivalent of giving some one the middle finger here in the UK.

Loving this new TV commercial promoting responsible drinking habits from Budweiser.

The Budweiser TV Ad features the actor/comedian Cedric the Entertainer (Cedric Antonio Kyles) in a bar as the designated driver.

Budweiser ad (designated driver)

Very funny TV ad.

I spotted a fantastic tree at Gibraltar Point Nature Reserve that had been sculpted by nature into a fantastic humanoid shape and it inspired me to transform it into an Enchanted Tree Beast.

Click on the image to see the tree picture Transform before your very eyes into what I saw .

After writing about the end of Supernatural Season 5, I stumble across my favourite Supernatural Gag Reel.

Jenson Ackles’s (who plays dean) rendition of Eye of the Tiger.

“Yellow Fever” is one of the funnest episode of Supernatural, with Jensen Ackles performing a hilarious role.
Both me and my hubby had tears in our eyes from laughing and the gag reel of Jenson mouth syncing to Eye of the Tiger was just Icing on the cake.

We really enjoyed watching this particular episode in Supernatural Season 4 it was really funny, loved it when the super cool Dean becomes a real scaredy cat, Jenson Ackles in that episode of Supernatural screamed better than I can, it was really girly, Classic!

Season 5 of Supernatural has come to an end in England always upsets me when my Favourite TV programs finish, but not for to long there is a Supernatural Season 6 to look forward to

We’ve been a fan of Supernatural since it hit the screen in England, We love Supernatural it has every thing we love about fantasy TV
stories great, it’s funny and there’s lots of monsters what else can you ask for and to top it off a great sound track of kick ass music from classics like ACDC, Kansas and Black Sabbath.

Our youngest son from watching Supernatural has become a huge fan of 70’s Rock Music which means my music list is more uptodate than his since ACDC and the whole 70’s rock era was a little before my time.

My son took me Grass hopper chasing today and I caught my first ever Cricket.

I don’t really like insect and tend to admire them from afar, I have great respect for them, I never deliberately kill insect or arachnids, I’ve taught all my children to be respectful to insect and treat them with care because there so important to life on this planet, but handling them NO WAY!

It was a lovely hot summers day (yes we do get them in England it’s not all rain ) and my son gathered together his jam jar and asked me if I wanted to go with him

Went with my son today for a walk in Tower Gardens in Skegness and sat on the grass and had Swallows flying passed us caching insects.

It was amazing the swallows would fly so close that you could hear the sound of the wind though their wings as they whizzed passed.

My son was mesmerized by the swallows acrobatics. We watch the swallows every year as they dart around feeding, but today it was such a calm day it felt wonderful magical almost, we will be moving away from Skegness soon, so it was nice to spend a lovely sunny morning in the park that we love so much.
