Maggie Madness


Last night, was an absolutely incredible night.
I cried, laughed, sighed, waltzed & smiled uncontrollably as I watched Ballerina's dance, Ice skating Debutants, a cinderella style carriage with 6 white horses & a 200 piece bagpipe band perform in front of me in a 6 story castle with 2 beautiful water fountains on either side.
Yeah you should be jealous!
It was spectacular to see & not only was it entertaining but it was extremely relaxing and pure.
Tess & I were definately in the top 50 youngest attendants. Amongst Grandad's Army, we watched in awe listening to some of the best classical music I have ever heard.
I wasn't sure how it would be, as I am not usually a classical music lover, however I am so glad I went with an open mind because it was amazing. The ride home was just as joyous, feeling like a true Armstrong, we sung our hearts out in a classical fashion (not), and feared for our lives as two young lads smoking a bong whilst driving a van blew us kisses.

To top off a fantastic evening last night, today I received flowers & thank you presents at work from my adorable friends Jarrason & Ashleigh. OH HAPPY DAYS!

I am so optimistic right now, you might actually find it to be a little nauseating if you were to be round me. I'm in the mood to dash out the flattery and feel good vibes. Nothing wrong with that, I say bring on the joy & happiness. Its the weekend & my going away party. 17days beautiful people, 17 days. My faith has been restored in humanity, thanks to a fair few people.

As our lovely receptionist said "its not something that you need to be worrying about" EXACTLY Catherine, thank you!

i'm so glad you came with an open mind too! i don't like to force classical music onto people, however it is the most historical and most pure beautiful music that you can get, which fills you with ideals and joy and excitement about romantic prospects and being swept off your feet. which my fair lady, is exactly what we need. :)
