Ivy

My parents came through to visit today and we went on a plant shopping spree in B&Q. While there, I asked one of the staff where I could find blackboard paint to be told they don't stock it anymore because "the name wasn't PC".

Our balcony is looking very pretty now.

The ivy has already started to twist and curl it's way around the railings.

My Dad has a bet on the Grand National so we went to the pub to watch it. I'd never seen it before but it really upset me with all the horses falling down.

We then went for dinner and margaritas at Illegal Jack's.

I had veggie haggis tacos but Tom shared them and his nachos with me. The margaritas were really good - like the ones from Omaha but triple the price.

Afterwards we went for a drink at Bennet's bar.

It was a really cool pub with giant mirrors and maps in the tables.
