An early night..

... for an early start tomorrow. First aid cover with St. John Ambulance in Hartlepool for the European Tall Ships race... *phew*.

In fact I'll take a picture tomorrow so you all can see how flaming ridiculous I look in the worst-fitting uniform I've ever worn. Ah well.

A demain!

The dreaded first post.

Hello dears! I'm not quite sure who I'm attempting to write to... Oh, that's right, my zero followers! Nevertheless, a lengthy intro ought to do the trick :-)

Right, let's get started. I'm Anna, a 17 year old living in a dull-as-ditchwater town with my slightly bizarre cat and my lovely Mother dearest.

One of my absolute favourite things is just to sit and watch the clouds go by whilst drinking a perhaps (but probably not) well earned cup of tea. So, there may be a few of my sky photos dotted around! But only if you're lucky.

An ambition of mine is to escape this country to live in (wait for it....) either France, Finland or New York City. Great combination, no need to thank me. Actually no. Just this second, France seems less appealing. Ignore that one. Finland or NYC all the way!
If you're wondering why I've chosen those, there'll be a brief résumé some point in the future :D

So... what happened today?
I had an English muffin for the first time ever. *triumph*
I'm afraid it suffers from what my Mum would call "Wagonwheel Syndrome" though. In other words, you hear people talk endlessly about them and have always wondered what's so fantastic. Then, when the fateful day comes, you eat one... and it takes you to new depths of mediocrity. That, my friends, is "Wagonwheel Syndrome".
That didn't stop me eating two, one with paté and one with blackcurrant jam! Nom.
