They had several different trails, ranging from 5 miles, to 32 miles I think - we've done the woodland trail (8.5 miles) and also the deer sanctuary ride, which apparently is 12 - 18 miles (I guess it's 12 miles if you don't do the extra distance to visit the local pubs :P - we stuck to the shortest route on that!) which is a lot further than I'd ever ridden before, but was relatively flat so it didn't seem too terrible :D They've got some photos of the route on their website (link) I think we'd need at least a year of vacation to be able to visit ever place we want to see! ;)

puts Jhun safely back into my wardrobe You're welcome! (and thanks for the vesnali coins too :D :D) Those two are the and - they don't have hats, just a tea bag dangling from their tails o.O :P ROFLMAO hopefully they'll let you put that costume on them! I don't think any of the pets I've had would let me dress them up :P ;) Whoa, that background looks awesome layered like that!! :D :D How's your week been?

Oh my goodness... adorable cat overload. :wishlists tea bags:

The link doesnt seem to work for me.. all I get is a blank page. o_O

Of course plenty of free time and a big budget to do whaever we would like and shop. :D Not too much to ask, eh? :)

:pats: I know. I did give the pattern a go last night.. but I didnt get the even edges I wanted- so I am trying again tonight. xD

whoops - there was a hashtag in their link, which seemed to mess it up - try this one link and click on the deer sanctuary link to the right ;)

laughs and suitable weather as well! ;)

That looks stunning! :O I can see why you loved it. ^_^ I havent even owned a bike, since forever, but concidering an el one if I can afford one. xD

we hired the full suspension ones - that was definitely worth doing, as the trails are quite rough in places, and the rear suspension saves your backside from getting too sore! ;) Certainly having an electric one around here would be a good idea though, as there's way too many hills around.... if we go by bike, there's either a long hill to start with, or one to end, depending on which way we go

I have done quite a bit of spinning at the gym, it can be downright painful. :P Even with padded bikershorts. lol

Same here.. its nowhere near flat. Plus, I dont have a drivers license either. So I figured it would be a good investment. :)

The roads round here are worse than those trails though - especially if you catch a pothole! I tend to stand up rather than sit on the saddle when I cycle on the roads - you can kind of brace for the pits with your knees, so you don't get such a jolt when you catch one ;)

nods that would definitely be a good investment! And it's be a load cheaper than getting a divers license, then getting and insuring a car! ;) :D

Oh I adore the ginger cat! lol -totally doesn't wishlist it- Least I could do as a thanks for the lend :) It was the best cat for the job! ^.^ I love your outfit today, great use of creams and the hat. just dont let doggy get any bones lol. Why thank you, though I feel this ha is extremely lacking lol. (keep reading)

good luck!

So I went to Petsmart and walmart yesterday. Walmart was better not being on a Saturday but it was very taxing on me--they are renovating the store so you basically have to go through the entire store to find whatever it is you need. Even with a motorized trolley its a lot. I got most of the grocery shop done though and picked up the odds and ends... like a new bedding set. Sheets, duvet, shams and a widdle pillow with it here's the store's picture but I was totally fried, zonked to the max after putting all the food away and making dinner for mum and I.

I think your HA's outfit looks stunning - the layering is a load more creative than I've been doing! ;) hehe the dog brought his own bones.... which might confuse the archaeologists :P

That stinks when everything in the store has moved round so you can't find anything :K I bet even the staff didn't have a clue where stuff was? That duvet cover set looks awesome though - nice and colourful, without being so vibrant it keeps you awake :D :D

lol well at least he's not gonna make any Aztec god curse him :P -pets doggy-

The staff was more helpful than normal but no, everything kept getting moved so not even the staff really knew where things where. And I was in so much pain last night--but I'm in a lot today as well, can barely move without crying out.

lol my room is bright yellow. mine's end one lol so there's not much that can compete with brightness :P

:squishes: I hope the pains calms down some for you.. Loving the bed set tho! So pretty. ^_^ Its lovely going to bed in fresh and clean linnens. The best! Its not the smallest of stores either.. so I imagine that took quite some time finding everything and getting out of there.

That is certainly not helpful. o-o I think I would walk or drive then. :P even tho the walk back home must be quite a workout. xD

I did try to get a license when I was 18... but because of my eyesight probems, I had a hard time driving. Having a buspass is def. more cheaper anyways than keeping a car. no way I could afford that anyways.

yeah its a huge store. A grocery store and large department store together. it was reasonably priced too. For a queen size bed it was $45 :) -nods- shopping there takes about 2 hours or so.

squishes gently hopefully today there's no chores or anything that you need to do, so you can let your back ease up a little (assuming it cooperates)? Wowzers, that's vibrant!! A nice warm shade though nods :D

nods walking to town is ok, but walking back is all uphill, so that definitely is a workout! And that's true - I'm not sure what our bus pass costs now, but it'd be a load cheaper than the petrol, insurance, road tax, and MOT for the car.... not even counting the cost of the car itself! As long as the bus goes where you're wanting to head to, you're ok - our buses are a bit haphazard for the route they cover, so to get to the hospital for instance is a bus to the bus station, then another to the hospital.... and the same on the way back - assuming they aren't running late and you miss one of course!

alas I need to go to the store to pick up veggies and things walmart didnt have but it'll be a shorter shop for sure. I've already had to lay down because of pain but it doesnt hurt as muchso here's hoping. lol mum doesnt really care for the bold intensity of my colour choice lol, but I LOVE it.

it's a nice bright colour - that should definitely help wake you up of a morning! ;)

:K at having to go to the store again, but at least it's not a long shop this time squishes

actually the colour really doesnt make me wake up or stop me from sleeping. I'm probly the exception rather than the rule though

yeah I'm eating lunch right now, then I'll shower and change and get it overwith lmao

When I had pale blue on my walls, everyone said it'd make the room feel cold, as it was such a cold colour.... but I felt it did the exact opposite, as it was kind of pale sky blue ;)

What's for lunch today? :)

sky blue shouldn't make it colder. I mean tons of people paint it that colour. I've had it for my room at one point in one of the houses we live in

beef nachos. :)

did you see the new baby? they had the new princess on the telly with Prince William and Kate.

apparently blue is a cold colour, whereas red and yellow are warm colours :P But my room gets hot anyway, so the silver & purple colours I have at the moment work really well too ;)

That sounds yummy :D

nods well, I saw the tiny pic on the bbc facebook ;)

true, but that shade is light enough where it should'nt've made much of a difference. now a deep blue i think would've impacted the coldness I'd think. ooh purple and silver is a classic combo :D It was ^.^ aww, babies are great, especially giving them back to their parents ;)
