We're heading off to a groupon deal to the Lake District tomorrow. An overnight stay at a hotel, plus a cruise around lake Windermere. I'm looking forward to it a lot, the lakes in autumn are going to be gorgeous.

I've joined mini nano, but picked a very low target of 100 words daily. Not that I know what I'm going to write. I'm tempted by bandom holidays and there's Sperrywink's Billy/Goodnight exchange, too. Guess I just need to get my nerve up about joining an exchange again.

I've just ordered two new dresses from Simply Be. I told myself not to do so as I've got plenty of clothes, but they tempted me with 25% off and free delivery. Plus, one of the dresses has a Christmas reindeer print. I'm not made of stone, people! I did order both a size down so they should last over the holiday season at least.

And talking of. I may have been watching Christmas movies on the Christmas movie channel. I know, I know, it's far too early, but I love the stupid cheesy things. Also, I've found this years sparkle deer!

And linking to that photo reminded me we went to Tynemouth aquarium last week. It's only a small one but we enjoyed the seal show and saw the otters which always make me think of Turlough.

I don't think anyone else watched but I finally watched the end episodes of Hart of Dixie. I really enjoyed that show and think it ended up perfectly. That song and dance routine was so Bluebell, and it was just nice to watch something that was really happy.

have fun on your Lake District trip! be sure to wrap up if you're on deck during the cruise - I bet it could be chilly.

I love the sparkle deer this year.

I hope you'd a lovely trip! The Lake District looks to be such a lovely area.

You should totally join bandom holidays :-) In any case I'm sure you'll manage to come up with something fun to write!

A Christmas reindeer print dress sounds fabulous. You must post pics when you get it!

Now that's what I call SPARKLY! (And I love your satisfied smirk in that photo :-)

Otters!!! I will never stop envying you living close to place where you can see otters.
