JULAAYY: timberland

Today I finally went to see the Poppies Weeping Window at St George's Hall with Holly. It's been there since the 7th November & goes in 2 weeks time on the 17th January. I've been wanting to go for ages even though I've been to town loads within that time I've just not been down there. I wanted to get photos of it in the daylight but also in the dark when it's lit up.

Some of the photos were taken on my Nikon 1 J2 camera while others were taken from my Samsung Galaxy S5 phone. Selfies were taken on Holly's iPhone 6.

Holly was underwhelmed by them as the photos other people have posted does make them look bigger than what they are but they still look so good. There's not as many as when they were at the Tower of London but then there's no way they could move all them around on tour in different cities.

Before they came to Liverpool they were at Woodhorn Museum Northumberland (12th September - 1st November). At the moment they're also at Yorkshire Sculpture Park (5th September - 10th January). Which I didn't know until I wrote this post I thought we were special & was the only place! They seem to be at other places for a lot longer than we've had them. But the face they've come to Liverpool I'm happy. I really appreciate & love stuff like this that happen in my home city. I really am like a proper tourist. I can't help it!

Tallest Christmas tree in the UK at Liverpool One. 30 metres tall, 280 heart lights. Doesn't really look like a tree...

Had a nice day being a tourist with Holly. We got into town at 2ish then wandered around till it was dark at like 4:30pm so we could take photos of the poppies in day light & when it was dark. The lighting wasn't grey cos it's was horrible day today. Luckily it didn't rain while we were out (umbrellas were a pain to carry around especially for photos!) but it was pouring down in the morning with Storm Frank!

Wing Christmas Dinner

Annual Wing cousin's photo. Replaced Laura (she went to Ste's) with Kirsty & bump!

We all woke up at different times, mum went to work as she's a care assistant in the morning & took a good hour+ to curl my hair & sort myself out before I managed to get downstairs. Gavin opened his on his own then I opened mine on my own. I just got random usual stuff you get off the auntie & uncle's unwanted stuff. Didn't get anything off my mum & dad wasn't expecting anything so no disappointment there.

I finally wore my Timberland boots for the first time after having them for like 2 months now, just not had a chance to wear them being in work constantly! Also love the colour of my fur jacket but not sure whether I actually like it as it doesn't have a collar I have a thing against jackets being collarless. But I can't find a nice fur green/teal fur jacket anywhere!

We waited for mum to get back then went to nanny Wing's for the usual Christmas lunch. Nothing exciting or different really. We then came home, didn't go to Sindy's this year as I was in work for 9 this morning & mum had work as well. We just had dinner at home watched Eastenders & took too many family photos by the tree.

Boxing Day

I was in work 9-3 killer 6hr shift with no break surely that's illegal right? Don't even think shops should be open on boxing day should be at home with your family & chilling watching. If you want to bag a bargain do it online! After the rubbish shift I came straight home & it started to snow! Didn't think it was going to stick as it'd been raining but oh my god it's still snowing now I actually think we're going to be snowed in & I'm in work tomorrow! A belated white Christmas for Liverpool!
