Sorry my post was late, I have had the worst day, we had freakish floods AGAIN!! Do u remember the pics I put on my blog a few weeks ago?? Yes well after having everything professionally cleaned and looking lovely again we got flooded eeek and all while my hubby is away :( But then tonight my night was cheered up Kell rang to say will i be up at 10.30pm as she needs to talk and i was like ok sure, and guess who knocked on my door at 10.30!!!!??? Yep Kellie hehehhehe with a box of chocolates too isnt she the best!!!!!!!!! {dont forget she lives 2 hrs away} And this weekend is extra special guess you could call it mine and Kells anniversary hehhe we met one year ago today and have become the best of friends.


CHAPTER 3: Painting the Roses Red
"Would you tell me please," said Alice a little timidly, "Why are you painting those roses?"
Five and Seven said nothing, but looked at Two. Two began in a low voice, "Why the fact is, you see, Miss, this here ought to have been a Red rose tree, and we put a white one in by mistake"...
