Take Heed

I have just had the most embarrasing experience with a Dalek.

Warning - if you are in Marks and Spencers do not buy their Dalek Easter Egg especially if you plan to continue shopping and travel home on the Metro. Everytime the carrier bag touched my leg EXTERMINATE EXTERMINATE reverberated the length of Northumberland Street - girls sniggered, children ran to their mothers. On the upside though I did get a seat to myself on the way home.

Hiding the offending egg in the cupboard in the kitchen I thought that was that until Baby Pixie came around on Easter Sunday - oh no. 2.00 a.m. this morning the Daleks invaded again - so now I have two very confused and frightened Jack Russells - resulting in wee all over the kitchen - nice.

So thats my tale for today. I also bought a Simnel Cake - now Mr Fox you must be able to explain the meaning behind this delight - or do I have to Google it? Also can you tell me if Lent ends at midnight on the Saturday please - I have the Kitkat at the ready and the Green and Blacks cherry Easter Egg - oh yes x

I have just realised

Its Good Friday a week today. I have also been given the reason why Easter is early this year and apparently its all to do with the Moon, a Jewish festival and somebody wanting break Jesus' legs to make him die quicker but when they got there he was already dead, and the other interesting bit was that Easter will not be this early for another 120 years and after that it will be another 340. Will someone wake me up please!!!

And the clocks are not going forward until the 30th March - it doesn't seem right does it.

Still not had any chocolate but Granma Pixie has bought me a huge Green and Blacks egg but now is the question - can you have your Easter Eggs on Good Friday or does it have to be Easter Sunday - this is a very important question so think carefully before answering - x

Lead me not into temptation

Its the serial Adulterer's birthday today and I am normally the only one who marks his birthday with a card and a present (a wee minding - as they say in Scotland) ...what has my other boss gone and done - only bought him the most deliciously huge chocolate cake!!!!

They brought my "piece" down with great aplomb and said "now Pixie you can break the rule just this once" - smiling I agreed.

When they were gone I stuck my fork in with gusto moved it around the plate a bit, had a bit of a sniff and chuffed it in an envelope and its now in my bag as we speak.

Hale Pixie - I just could not do it.

I have amazed myself x

Or could it be the fact that if I do get on Look North (regional TV programme) promoting the Exhibition then telly puts 10 lbs on you - so not such a righteous Pixie but a vane one!

As requested...but


Following in the famous footsteps of Elise - the master of cliffhangers I thought I would put my own spin on it!

So devious Pixie has a very poorly ankle today - an injury brought on by the high winds. I wish I could say I was blown sideways as I weigh less than a twig, I wish I could say I was so sleight of frame that the winds got the better of me ....no no......

The big backyard doors ate my ankle in fact gouged a piece out of it actually when I was in the back lane getting the bins in ....how exotic.

Confessions to the Internet

Not only did I not go to the gym at lunchtime I went straight up to Fenwicks French - looked for the MaxMara delight - so that I could touch it again - some bitch had bought it - so what does this Pixie do - went straight to the "key" pieces where this Japanese bloke displays (cannot spell the make) but there it was - the perfect dress for my opening - quirky, off the wall and expensive - just like me.

Thank you God for the Four Part Payment System - Hallelujah x

A Good Rant

Does you good - I was furious last night completely full of hell - Pixie lost her sense of humour big style and not only was the dummy spat out but the pram was demolished too. Hadn't finished this morning still had to have my say and slam a phone down and now I feel much much better for it all oh and I have just noticed that bitch from hell has just parked in our car park.

Now bitch from hell is married to a guy here who has had numerous affairs (I wonder why?) and she has decided its all my fault - eh hello, hence she never speaks, never calls, never sends a Christmas card - you get the picture? Anyway she is shopping in town today and has left her car right outside my window - today might just be the day folks!!!!!!

Don't mess with the Pix - not today anyway!

Its snowballing out of control

Perplexed Pixie to say the least and I know you have to speculate to accumulate but I keep thinking of that MaxMara frock in Fenwicks! £300 to the Lab for printing, £400 for frames, £300 for business cards and £300 for a website. I hope it will all be worth it.

On the upside my Kitkat craving has subsided and I have lost half a stone but I feel like a pile of shite but apparently thats normal at this stage in the diet so we shall persevere with it.

Oh and I won the Photographic Clubs colour competition overall - its a points thing (bit like a Leek Club probably! ) so thats good.

Mr P is now in the States - it cannot be six weeks since I blogged that I was missing him? I now of course have the pleasurable feeling of being able to watch what I want, a tidy house etc etc - but that only lasts about 3 weeks.

Hey its all go is it not! Am off to Fenwicks now just to "touch" that Maxmara dress.
