I had two lovely days in mid May which aren't really worth posts in themselves so I thought I would combine them. On the 16th of May I met up with my friend Stacey for tea. She was free again as her partner had taken the kids away in the caravan, but she had to work on the Saturday so she couldn't go. We decided to go to La Fortezza at Newmillerdam in Wakefield, which we had talked about going to last time but couldn't get a table. We booked for 6pm so I drove myself, parked, and went in to meet her.
The food was nice and the service was good. I felt like the drinks were a bit over priced, but everything else wasn't. I would recommend the restaurant if you're in the area! I got home about 8pm I think, but I didn't feel very well so I didn't get a picture of my dress. It was a long cream dress with black spots though, and it's lovely in the summer.
I was also wearing some make up. I got some foundation and concealer from Il Makiage recently so wanted to try them out because they will exchange them for you if they're not the right shade. I also got an eyeliner and a foundation brush for free. I don't often wear eyeliner but this one is like a pen so I gave it a go and it turned out quite well! I just put a tiny bit of eyeshadow above, and a pink Clinique lipstick.
I forgot to get a photo of Stacey and I but it was really nice to see her, especially so soon after the last time I saw her!
On the Saturday it was my friend Philippa's birthday party in Ponderosa park. She had invited Lee and I and some other people from 1pm. Lee and I stopped at Sainsbury's on the way and bought goodies to share. We were first there after Philippa so we chatted. Other people turned up - C and one of her kids and her partner and then C and S and C's sister and their two children. C and S are friends of mine too but I haven't seen them in ages so it was nice to see them. I've met C and her children before through Philippa so it was lovely to see them again.
I was quite happy sitting on the floor so C sat in one of our camping chairs which was helpful for her. We shared some food, the kids played, and we all chatted. It was so sunny and absolutely lush! I borrowed some sun cream. Lee doesn't like sitting in the sun for too long so he had a wander in the shade, too.
I didn't take many photos. Philippa did but in the interests of privacy I'm not sharing, but I will share the photo she took of her and me. Isn't it lovely? You can't see it but I again put some eyeliner on and some mascara, I think I will try to do this more often because it looks good!
We all said goodbye about 5pm. Lee and I then stopped in Hillsborough park on the way home to get ice creams. It was still so sunny and nice! He wasn't feeling well though so once we got home he had a nap and I laid down for a bit before relaxing for the rest of the night. I was wearing my Cheers Queers t shirt but didn't get a photo of it. I also had rainbows in my ears and round my neck!
