Swapping Swimming for Hog Roast

So this weekend was supposed to be my Pier to Pier swim down in Bournemouth, but it was postponed due to severe weather predicted for the weekend, including 2 metre high waves 😦

When I got up this morning the waves were definitely higher than I would have wanted.

So what is a girl to do instead of swim? Go to a local hog roast of course 🙂

 So even though I couldn’t swim in the race this weekend, it will be rearranged and we got to have hog roast so it was a good weekend overall 🙂

Harry Potter Farewell

Last night was amazing!

My friend Ingrid and I got together in Bristol to watch the last Harry Potter movie. We decided to go the the double showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 and Part 2 at 9pm (then 12:01am) 🙂

We first went out to dinner at Giraffe and had a good catch  up over some amazing food. I had the vegetable burrito:

 

And Ingrid had the Chicken enchilada and we shared some skin on fries. SO GOOD!

We the got in the line foe the movie.

No one was dressed up but the line was fun to stand and talk to other excited people 🙂

Ingrid made Harry Potter cookies and I put together some sweet bags for our adventure, including sherbet lemons 🙂

It was AMAZING and so much fun! The movie was great but we were a bit sad that it was the last one 😦

I will now re-read all the books over the summer 🙂
