Enchanted Forest

I trudged up to the woods with Jazz this morning, grimacing at the cold and mizzle only to be met by this enchanting scene. 
 Mother Nature - Boom!

Love Spring

The swallows arrived today, the cuckoo is calling and the blossom is on the bough. 


Now that's what I call...

JAZZ!

Swearing never to adopt another dog again and subject myself to the heartbreak that Elf caused, the most recent addition to our household came as somewhat of a surprise to both the family and myself. Still not sure how Jazz happened but she did and as it's been over 2 months now so I guess introductions are in order.
Rescued from a pound in Wales she is a 6 year old (approx) lurcher and a complete and utter Daddy's Girl!


Jazz's first day


Adopting a dog during the wettest month on record was not one of our best ideas!


Eying up the sheep


Making herself at home


Clambering onto Daddy's knee


Tip toe through the bluebells!

HP Highlight

BONE-FIDE RESULTS EVERY TIME

My favourite prop from the entire Harry Potter series has to be from The Chamber of Secrets. 
I stated that this was the one thing I really wanted to see on the tour (a girl of modest tastes me) so my Little Sis was a bit nervous incase it wasnt there. Luckily for her it was otherwise the entire day would have been RUINED (just kidding... kind of) 
Anyway, step forward Skele-Gro. Such a handsome chap that I've given him a page all to himself !

WB Studio Tour Part 2

LETS GO OUTSIDE! 

It was c-c-cold that day so we didn't hang around outside for too long but my top tip for this area is to avoid the Butter Beer, which is basically brown Cream Soda with whipped cream on top, grossly overpriced and well, gross!! 


The Knight Bus


The Bridge at Hogwarts




The Potters Cottage
Hang on in there, last instalment coming up...

Warner Bros Studio Tour Part 1

SPOILER ALERT!!
My little sis took me to the Harry Potter, Warner Bros Studio Tour and it was ah-mazing.
I won't write too much here as if you haven't been it will spoil the experience (in fact if that's the case I suggest you look away now) and if you have been this is old news. Which begs the question "Why bother to blog this at all?!" - to relive the magic, that's why!
