I will be away...exciting times....!!

Celebration

 

Hello everyone,

 

I hope you are having a fantastic start to your week. 

 

I just wanted to let you know that I will be away from tomorrow (Oct 11th) until Wednesday Oct 25th. As I speak to so many of you every day, I wanted to let you know it is an exciting time for me, as I will be getting married! 🙂

 

I will be leaving you in good hands as @Quincy will be here and if you are lucky you might also spot our old friend @Kirstie who now manages the French speaking Community Center, @Dimitri0 from the German speaking CC who I believe many of your may have seen around before and also @Gaby from the Portuguese speaking CC (what a dream team). 

 

Also, just to mention in my absence, I will be leaving the odd interesting post which will be shared with you whilst I am away, so do keep your eyes posted for that. I really look forward to hearing your thoughts when I get back.

 

I wish you all an amazing couple of weeks, don't have too much fun without me! 🙂

 

Thanks so much,

 

Lizzie

Wow @Branka-and-Silvia0@Ria16@Lisa658, @Bruce43@Βασίλης-and-Ann0@Momi0@Lee162@Jennifer--And-My-Brother0@Clara116@Jessica-and-Henry0! This very moving, thank you all for such lovely comments, it is really kind of you and I absolutely love reading them all. 🙂

 

I will be sure to share some photos with you when I return, I would send you all some cake, but I just don't think it would last that long! hehe

 

In reference to your comment Momi, tips are always welcome! If anyone has any more tip for the "First Dance" dance moves I am all ears, because to be honest with you I could do with all the help I can get! 🙂 

 

Have a wonderful few weeks and thanks again.

 

Lizzie

Aww thanks so much @Andrea9 and @Steve143. It is lovely to hear from you both. 

 

Alas, no momi's mango margharitas for me I am afraid, I am taking a short break and staying in a couple of Airbnbs here in the UK, by the coast which I am very much looking forward to (I don't even mind it is rains a little - famous last words), but I hope to venture a little further next year, so you never know! 🙂

 

Speak to you both soon. 

 

Lizzie

@Lizzie  I want to join with the large chorus of well-wishers in sending my hope for your wonderful wedding and marriage.  While we all look forward to your return to the CC, I hope you don't spend a second on thinking about us...:D

@Lizzie congrats!!  Might have posted sooner but yesterday was my wedding anniversary lol

 

Have a great time.  Don't worry about the first dance, it's not a "performance" it's a celebration - just be yourself & enjoy!!

How are you all? I am now back from my holidays and I can confirm everything went well and I am now married! 🙂

 

It was a lovely day and the weather was amazing for October–a sunny 20 degrees (68f). I haven't many wedding photos at the moment, but will share some soon with you. I even managed to survive the first dance, which actually went ok, there was a brief moment of impromtu panic dancing, but I think I got away with it! hehe

 

Then off we went to stay in beautiful Cornwall in the South West corner of England, where we stayed in three different Airbnbs. All were very cozy and welcoming, one host even made us some scones (but do you put the jam or the clotted cream first?!?)

 

We had a mix of calm weather and dramatic windy days, which for me is perfect. I do like to look at a dramatic seascape and see the waves. I even managed to try a spot of surfing for the first time...I think I can almost claim that I manage to stand, but it is very tricky. My only problem now is that I think I am hooked, but there aren't many waves in London though! To add, I can also say I ate a lot of fish...my favourite is always a good crab sandwich. 🙂

 

Here are a few photos:

How has you week been?

 

Thanks again for the lovely messages. 🙂
