So, it's back to the more recent events again, we now have a chance to really see what is made of me and also see new faces and help out friends that have helped me through. But with a wet February, earthquakes the day before (that even sitting on a chair in a marquee when they happened, no one felt it, not even me). But with plans for the next few days set, my YouTuber partnership went by Tuesday, it's been fun all RIP. Actually no, that is not happening this time but it might give me a clean slate in one way.
But we have a day out to go with. Enjoy the vlog below.
The Morning.
Well, waking up at 7:45 with a newly reset alarm, things looked good, chatting to someone local for plans next week and then having that mini cough and throat that signs me up for the flu coming. But everybody has had different strains of it so meh. I got up by 8:20 and after changing and a quick half shave, I was running by 8:42. Which today would mark 600 miles I've exercised using mi Fit. Jesus.
I ran down and via the fog and damp paths and roads, got to Lidl by 8:53, sure nothing to look at but it was still a Sunday morning.

Now things took an odd turn when a bug after resetting the phone left me with unable to record the way I usually do. One thing I can't stand is a simple bug, so technically no HDR mode for this vlog. Grrr. I got on the bus and paid the £5.50 return fee to get on it, I sat opposite a customer of mine off to his work, we caught up and chatted before he had to make his leave before Plymouth was approaching.
The journey to the show
I eventual got off the bus at 9:53 and then made my way to the pavilions for this. I saw rain, fog, no one I knew and then I got backstage and it was good timing. Saw my friend and got reintroduced to some of his models etc. Then we got ready for the show. It was 5 minutes away and then it got into play.

Reaching the pavilions
The first show.
It was a nice one but a chaotic mess due to an emergency just before I got there. But I got somewhat organised for it. I managed to get things going and the show went really well.
By about 10:40, it was finished and it was an hour to kill.
The time passed
I walked around and many venues were there from hotels, drone operators trailer bars and even Nuffield, which goodies were handed out like a day gym pass, pop world goody bags, hi Sophie. business cards and more. I also tried to show off a nice few bites along the way. Passing by a teen model that won miss teen great Britain or something like they were interesting too.

The 2nd show.
Now things were emotional, there were 2 new models, one looked sensational but she was helping and featured in one of the most emotional short films that I actually never saw but was played on the stage, but both looked beautiful and very strong after what she had been through, but one was really well 😍😍😍😍. I had to help her roll her dress up at the end as well. Then it was 12:45 and we had a long lunch break.
The grand lunch break.
So I ran to maccies, yes I did. The bottom one I missed and went to the top one, passing and wondering into Poundland and game too. I asked about the prif kit which was not in stock, I told them they were not out in may, sounded like a cocky little shit but well life.
Then I ran up to maccies, I tried the screen but no special order for no cheese grand big mac so I had to order it at the counter, it felt like Argos but £5.69 and it was pretty quick and then eating time
The Grand Mac Meal for £5.69
Then we deal with eating it, it tasted nice, more filling than a normal big mac, less sauce but much more lettuce as well. I would give it an 8/10. But eating that and typing this up before making my way back to the 2 pm deadline it waxes time for, passing CEX. There were some ok bits in there but even the CPU I have now is about £70. Then i made my way back to the pavilions.

The 3rd show.
Well, i got back by 1:55, chatted to a few people then i was hanging out by the changing door, like i kid you not, 2 large pizzas and extras from dominoes,🤗. But we were all chilling, chatting, one of the male models was pretty good on bikes, well he had some pro shots of him which looked swish.

Eventually, it was nearing 2:20 and we or most of us got up backstage to get them. Making sure all was ready and people got changed, one of the kids was on sarahah and then there was changing looks. But then the show started, not many hitches but i slipped up with handing out the roses quick but it went off smoothly. By 3:10 it was the end and things went really well, everyone had smiles on their faces, i was offered a lift From one of the models who lived near Tavi, but I declined since I had some shopping to do afterwards.
One last browse
The first shopping I had to do was actually an early mothers day presents, which was from the place I downed a shot of hot lime and ginger cordial, two bottles the apple and elder flower cordial for £7.50 each. Luckily they had a card so I paid it on that. Then it was a stall that did some soy wax burners which could make some nice scents by placing it on a oils burner. That was £3.00 for the pack. Then I left and on my way to town.
The £18.00 of stuff. 2 bottles of Cordial for £15.00 and £3.00 for soywax melts
The shop in town
Then it was making my way to Poundland and then to Primark, which Poundland had some deals that suppliers could not match, I kid you not, sunset overdrive for £5.00. But I went for some bits and pieces and a bag which helped place the other stuff inside.
Then I left and explored Brand Max which had some decent deals and some lee cooper jeans for a whopping £9.99 and then a £0.05 bag charge like normal. Since that was fine, I paid for that and it was making my way to Maplin which had some deals but not many.
The jeans for £9.99 and the £0.05 carrier bag
then on it was a run back home for the bus, which I left from the uni and pushed myself to the bus stop that I had rushed to back from a king my way back from the fireworks last year. It took me about 21 minutes to run from Town to that stop. Nipples were starting to sore

The Selfie of swet and waiting
I got on the bus and then relaxed while my soaked and nipple sore self-was recovering, I saw my customer from this morning and we had a good chat until I got off at Lidl and then ended the vlog before running home. Things are looking on the up and exciting time ahead, Sure its RIP partnership but things will be nice to build back up. But for now lets be...
