Pixie Health Warning

Something to share for those of us who when walking through Fenwicks as is my want, come across the Clarins counter - hey Pixie come here and see what we have for you, now all you have to do is purchase two items, one of which has to be skin care and you get all these lovely gifts free...not only that but if you buy a third item you get to pick from out lucky dip ....well needless to say on the Metro going home I had to take a double seat with all the "freebies" the kind lady gave me.

Unfortunately what she did not say was that when you delve into the "is your body thirsty and needs a drink" part of the "exceptional" gift - and if you think your little Pixie bottom is a tad dry (especially when Mr P is on his way home from foreign climes) - DO NOT and I stress DO NOT after administering said cream to ones bum ......do not go for a wee because like me you will slide off the seat fall to your knees, trip on your 'G' and bang your head on the wash-hand basin (mine being particularly nice as its Victoria)...but it hurt x

Nice smooth bum though xxx

Some Pixies Get Flowers

As you know Mr P sails the high seas and a good job it is sometimes I have to say - absence etc etc but just to enlighten the masses I am Mrs P the 3rd. The other wives in his heyday got to sail with him to America, New Zealand and Canada - where have I been .....Hartlepool ... so with this back drop in mind would you not think that Mr P has a lot of ground to make up?

Bearing that in mind and the fact that his trip has extended now to over 8 weeks you can imagine my delight when a delivery van drew up looking for Mrs P - my enthusiasm knew no bounds ....what did I get...the biggest and best bunch of flowers - no..... underwear in a box covered in tissue ....no - 5 packs of ******* floor tiles for his sodding boat !

And and and I have to carry them home pack by pack - on the Metro - and considering today is Tuesday I have 3 more packs to go after today - marvelous!!!!!!!!!

What can I say xxx

Ridiculous Even for me!

I am trying to be good, I really am - the credit crunch supposedly has hit the Pixie household but this little baby hasn't quite got the hang of it. As we speak I have a 1950's converted theatre light on an antique tripod stuffed into a Waitrose bag (the light not the tripod) - the bag is in front of me as I type and the light is nestled between a pack of stuffed peppers and a box of Kellogs Crunchy Nut.

The story is once I get something I have to either wear it like now, spray it right now or in this particular case plug it in right now.

Now for those of you who are unfamiliar to the Newcastle Metro System I have to get on at St James (home of the "Toon") and at best there are some dodgy characters at worst we are playing Tottenham - I digress - anyway getting this light home is going to be no easy task.

The ridiculous thing is it cost £450, came in a huge box and was swaddled with oodles of bubble wrap - and what do I go and do!

Hey man Pixie has lost the plot xx

Hey Man

What with Kevin Keegan leaving and the Paps being outside my office along with disgruntled fans, too many weddings to shake a stick at ~ a wayward son coming back from Oz - not to mention wild child of Pixie who has created havoc in the Pixie Household this summer I really just have not had time to Blog.

Not an excuse I know.

Well it is the turn of the year and I still haven't had a holiday. Mr P is sunning himself in the Gulf of Wherever - actually he has been dodging Gustav and Ike but is due home soon.

I have a new (well new to me) black beetle which I am debating having a Pixie painted on the side - such a girlie thing but its fab so that is taking up mt attention - also still debating whether to give up the day job mmmmmmmm - we shall see.

Well you probably have all deserted me, and it serves me right.

Oh and I am still keeping Fenwicks French afloat although I have now discovered Primark xxxxxxxxx

Tardy Pixie

I know Ihave been tardy of late with blogs but you know when things are just not going right - in fact one thing after another so it goes on.

The Gallery has long sinced closed (I received the Rates bill which was £12,000 for 7 weeks and one day) - and if I had a rent bill that would have been £36,000 - making £48,000 for 7 weeks in prime Eldon Square - luckily I do not have to pay it but the monies are being lodged in my account so that I can - credit rating!!!! that was the first thing that came into mind along with the most beautiful dress in Fenwicks French (D & G - tartan, to die for).

So my life so far, very busy with weddings and photo shoots, sorting out prints for people who seem to quite like my style. Having major difficulties with child no. 2 which has coloured the whole of the summer. Mr P has written off our car - he thankfully was not hurt but was border line over the limit from the night before so looks as though I am going to be the main driver for awhile (now thats scary).

On a brighter note I have invested in the latest Max Mara winter coat (people are wanting to kill me for my desire for the darker nights to set in) - I did ditch the green nail varnish (well eventually) and I have lost over a stone now so thats cool.

Hope everyone is well x

And the vote for ............

Green nail varnish is??? Mmmmm I have just purchased some green nail varnish (for toes - not that it actually says that on the bottle) from Nails Inc and its called grass something or other. Have to say I am getting a bit obsessive about the colour green but its that certain green that one is being obsessive about more a green with a bit of lime in it - not the colour of astro turf - but hey ho when I girl is obsessed there is not a lot one can do about it is there? Especially me.

Am bored, hot and bored again. Not that it is photography weather either - far too contrasty.

Have a wedding on Saturday and fingers crossed we have some cloud or this little Pixie (I have lost a stone) will be running around looking for all manner of shade. Thinking about Saturday - what do I have to wear? Bi product of doing loads of weddings is the fact that one must have a decent frock now.

Why I am writing posh I have no idea - I have been watching too much of Lucinda off The Apprentice - now I liked her x

A Juggler I am not!!!!

The past 3 months have been hectic. The Gallery was a huge success but a steep learning curve. Firstly the general public are barking mad - from the little man who ran around the seats shaking his fist and spitting to Harry Potters Father look alike - dressed head to toe in purple velvet - in a swish he was there and in a bigger swish he was gone, along with his portfolio of semi nudes dressed as fairies with a bit of bondage going on.

Life certainly has been a rollercoaster for me - during that time Mr P's Dad became critically ill and subsequently died - daughter of Pixie found herself in a relationship with a Fruit Loop of mega dimensions who we have had to get an injunction out on - "proper" work suddenly became busy - oh and I had two weddings and three photo shoots to fit in - so quite quiet really.

Of course I have managed to feed my habit and there are a couple more gorgeous frocks in the wardrobe.

Baby Pix is well and has started a new school - she now wants goal posts in the backyard but I have asked "what is wrong with jumpers" - the concept of which she fails to understand!

Anyway I hope everyone is well and if you haven't visted my website have a look - www.pixiechics.co.uk

Pixie is back x
