Although we were from the same town, he had moved away years ago. I had seen him about Banbury town though so although we hadn’t officially met when we were talking online, we weren’t complete strangers.

It took a little while, but we eventually got chatting every day and then texting and decided to finally meet in Banbury.  He met me at the train station and I was so nervous I had already pretty much downed half a bottle of vodka! See me and Vanien are quite simple folk we don’t need fancy restaurants etc. we love our music and it was a beautiful day so we thought for our first date we would go and sit in a field listening to punk music drinking cider… We were also wearing Christmas hats in the middle of summer, it was love!

This year, I’ve hardly taken any holidays. Just a few days here and there for a break, but we’ve not actually been away. To say I was in desperate need of one was an understatement! As mentioned in a previous post, Rob & I took a short break up to Northumberland for a bit of coasteering. Now, I love a good adventure weekend, but at the same time, I wanted something cosy and cute to come back to after throwing ourselves off cliffs.

For those who don’t know what coasteering is, it’s basically a few hours in a wetsuit climbing, swimming, jumping off and scrambling across a dramatic coastline (with professionals) and is so much fun if you’re adventurous or just silly adrenaline junkies like us!

I highly recommend Adventure Northumberland who we went coasterring with. Zoe, our expert for the day, took plenty of pictures of our fun afternoon.

On Sunday, we went to see the hilarious Daniel Sloss and Kai Humphries at The Lowry. We’ve seen them before and bought the tickets last minute. They’re definitely worth going seeing if you like to laugh. A LOT.
