Alllll the foxes!

 Greetings!  I hope your day has been bright, sunny and contented.  As you all seemed to like Mr Foxton on Friday, I thought I'd share the full outfit that he was part of.

 As it happens, I am not particularly happy with my resident foxes as I left my bikini bag (for keeping a wet costume in) out hanging in the garden and it had fallen down and overnight, the foxes had played with it, removed the drawstring and bit three holes in it. So that one is resigned to the bin!

 You might remember these gorgeous fox-flat shoes from Love Hetty and Dave that I featured in a Wishlist a while back, bemoaning the fact that CBC refused to buy them for me when I offered it as something I'd quite like when he asked about Christmas and birthday presents.  As you can see, he relented and bought them for me!  Yay!

The weekend has been nice albeit fairly meandering. We took our friend (the one who introduced us!) out for dinner to our favourite Thai restaurant on Friday which was great fun. To my surprise and slight chagrin, I awoke super early on Saturday morning so to make the best of a bad situation, I got u and jogged to the local swimming pool where I arrived at 7.30am for a 30 minute dip! 

It meant I was able to pick up a parcel from the delivery office, head to the library to pick up a reserved book and to buy some 17 bargain books for 10p a piece from there for the school library!  Had a bit of luck in the charity shops too when I found a Screen Accurate blouse worn by Clara in Doctor Who as well as two other pretty blouses! All the collars.

Back home, I did some tidying and washing until we headed to another town for CBC's optician's appointment where I purchased a further 14 books from the charity shop for the library (Not a bad weekend's haul, 30 immaculate books for £9!).  We then headed to a taster day for learning musical instruments for a local authority music hub, where CBC led Cello taster lessons and I walked to town and pootled.  I think I must have walked 5 miles along high streets that day!) 

In the evening, after a bit more sorting, we headed over to our friend's to watch Eurovision.  I didn't find it as fun without our usual party! I missed the hilarious manic laughter from our usual host!

Today, waking late, I have spent most of the day tidying, hanging washing or reading.  CBC went on an interminable, epic cycle with his brother.  Oh... and I made Chocolate cornflake cakes- mmm!!

If you fancy wearing an entirely foxy outfit, the dress is by Run&Fly- they don't have their own website but you can get them from Thunderegg Manchester or on Ebay (where I got mine) or other independent boutiques. The shoes are from Love Hetty and Dave, brooch from Hello Crumpet on Etsy and the necklace was from Punkypins though they don't make them now!

I hope your weekend was foxilicious!
