Who Doesn’t Love The TESCO Guy?

Post! Hooray!

And guess what?

It’s a two-in-one!!!

Would you like to know the topics of today? Would you? Would you?

Tough.

Hehe

Well today we haaaaave:

1) Rampant Bin Juice

2) TESCOs!

Yay!

What? What? What is the madness?

Well, let’s start with Rampant Bin Juice.

…………………………………….

There is actually no way of describing this.

I’ll just let you watch it ……….

Cuthbert is my cousin.

Yeah ………

There is ……

I think I am slightly lost for words at this point ……….

And what do you do when you’re lost for words? (No, not Google it, the other one)

Change the topic!

So, on to point 2, TESCOS!

The reason for this is that THE TESCOS GUY CAME LAST NIGHT!

You have no idea how unbelievably exciting this is.

For those of you who do not know, TESCOS offer a magical service called ‘home delivery’.

THEY GET YOUR FOOD, AND THEY BRING IT TO YOUR HOUSE! YOUR ACTUAL HOUSE!

This rarely happens at our house, and when it does, we inevitably get incredibly excited and run around screaming because of all the extra yummy stuff we get when we order it online

So this time, we got:

Hovis Biscuits (THEY’RE SO YUMMY! Sort of like Digestives passing themselves off as crackers. I Love Them!)

Deli Llama’s Cheesy Baked Bites (the packet says it all. Above the bar code: baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah code (actually, llamas don’t baaa, they hum. Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm)

Soreen Malt Loaf – I just love this! Yum yum.

And cola and ice lollys and magnums and bagels and deliciousness!

So yes, I love it when the TESCOS man comes.

And it’s the weekend!

And I’ve got some music on, and it’s Spring!

It may not be sunny, and it may not be warm, but the smell of mown grass is in the air and it feels like summer.

So smile everyone!

Have a good weekend, whatever season it is where you are.

DFTBA,

Beth

 

So Sing Your Favourite Cover Song, Especially If The Words Are Wrong

Sorry I didn’t post last night! And that I only have time for a quick post tonight!
But I have discovered …………
THE SPOTIFY PLAY BUTTON!
*gasp*
So I will give you a song from Bastille called Poet:
<iframe src=”https://embed.spotify.com/?uri=spotify:track:4bz7uB4edifWKJXSDxwHcs&#8221; width=”300″ height=”380″ frameborder=”0″ allowtransparency=”true”>
I like the thought of that ……
These words that I’m writing on my computer from my room on a school night in April will be here for ever, one way or another.
In peoples minds.
On the internet.
Hmm …….
On a lighter note, I have discovered the magical box of wonders that is Google Chrome!
(You can play Angry Birds! On a computer! How cool is that!)
And I’m now slightly addicted to this game called Little Alchemy ………
Which reminds me ………
*three hours later*
IT’S SO ADDICTIVE!
Hehe.
I think another song, just because I can:

I spent the whole of my rather boring Maths lesson singing. And dancing.
Just sat at the back of the class, waving my arms around to music inside my head.
Subtle ……
What music is this? I hear you ask.

Well I got through a couple of musicals (you know, Oliver, Mamma Mia, Les Mis, The Jungle Book (does that count as a musical?), Joseph, etc.), Abba and Queen (of course!), The Final Countdown and Eye of The Tiger, Bette Davis Eyes, The Muppet Song, The Horrible Histories Kings and Queens of England Song (yes, I know it off by heart), The Horrible Histories Charles the Second Song, a bit of Rah Rah Rasputin, anything that by the end of the song you end up playing either invisible drums, air guitar, imaginary saxophone or singing along.
I even managed to drag the boy I was sitting next to into it! We did the drum solos
Also a mimed duet with Taby across the classroom …….
At this point, I have no clue what we actually were supposed to be doing in the Maths lesson …….
But my way was much more fun!
Anyway, just reminded of a couple of lines from one of Elly and Taby’s favourite songs …….
So play your favorite cover song/especially if the words are wrong/cause even if your grades are bad/it doesn’t mean you’re failing/
Do your homework with a fork/and eat your Froot Loops in the dark/and bring your flask of jack to work/and play your ukulele/
Happy times!
Well have fun singing your hearts out
DFTBA,
Beth

1 Video, And A Ton Of Prevarication.

I went to Elly‘s house. And we made a video. Finally, you lovely people get to see my face!

Don’t dis the jumper. It was three in the morning.

Also, I sound weird.

And ………..

yeah.

It was originally 15 minutes long.

Elly’s editing skills did the rest.

I should really just let you watch it now shouldn’t I …………?

What can I say? I thought they’d be cooked more.

I really don’t know why I put that in there.

If there is any of this video you don’t get (and believe me, I’m not to sure about some of the details myself) please comment below.

This might help (will donate entire post to this later, so ………)

Men Who Stare At Goats.

I should really shut up and let you watch this ……….

BUT I DON’T WANT TO!

Okay, okay, breathe.

Here it is, the video you’ve all been waiting for: ‘A Really Random Chat With A Squirrel’.

I’m going now …………….

DFTBA,

Beth

We’ve gone all multi-cultural!

Hello all!

Sorry for bailing on you yesterday, I was busy being miserable, slightly ill, feeling sorry for myself and reading a good book. Oops ……

Anyway.

Me and Elly have a thing.

Which, now I come to explain it, I feel slightly guilty for.

Basically, it’s a 

WHO CAN CONQUER THE WORLD FIRST?

competition. The aim is to get views from as many countries as possible to fill in the lovely little map on the stats page WordPress so helpfully provides.

Slight guilt.

Well the point is, up until recently, I could claim that I was winning, because a LONG time ago I got all of TWO VIEW from the Russian Federation (as it is called on the WordPress stats page)! And, as you may or may not know, Russia is a BIG place. So my map kinda looked like this:

 

See! Sort of mainly filled in a bit! But then (shock horror!) ELLY GOT A VIEW FROM RUSSIA!

(dun dun duuuuun!)

So now her map looks like this:

‘Tis a tragedy! I must concoct a cunning plan ……. hmmm …….

Or, I could just go to bed. That sounds better …………

But first, I’m going to say hi to every single person who has every viewed my blog, by country! Are you ready for this? Go!

529 from the Uk! Hi!

165 from the US!

28 from New Zealand!

26 from France!

9 from the Netherlands!

7 from Australia, Philipines, India and Canada!

6 from Germany!

4 each from Ireland and Zimbabwe!

3 from Kuwait, Austria, Oman and Argentina!

2 from Romania, Russia, Poland, Indonesia, Slovenia and South Africa!

And last but not least, 1 from Singapore, Czech Republic, Mexico, Morocco, Hungary, Lithuania, Serbia and Pakistan!

I love you all!!

Please comment and tell me what country you’re from and what you think of it!

Have fun!

(And help me beat Elly!)

DFTBA,

Beth

 

 

Les Miserables Knee

Sorry guys … no Les Mis.

So Beth, what ridiculous excuse are you coming up with this time?

Ummm … I hurt my knee?

Seriously? You have the entire world of pathetic excuses open before you and you go with ‘I hurt my knee’? Not ‘I fell through a time vortex to 1969 where I discovered the portal to Narnia and journey to the ends of the world where I went through a magical door and came out in the third floor bathroom n Hogwarts, just in time to see a troll enter, but luckily the TARDIS appeared and, as always, broke, leaving us stranded in Middle Earth where we meet Gandalf and taught him how to talk to giant eagles, before I was suddenly disapparated to 221b Baker Street where I had a very strange encounter which ended in me having to get the train home, and really you’re lucky you’re getting a post at all tonight. No? WELL WHY NOT?

No no, hear me out!

Would you like to know what I was doing when I hurt my knee? Let me see ….. it involves swivelly chairs, a fairly flat surface and running very very fast.

Yes, me and my sister were having wheely chairs races.

And I decided to put my wheely chair a distance away from me, take a massive run up and (and heres the important word) attempt to glide gracefully across the floor.

Yeah. I did that.

So, I ended up doing a quite impress flip over the wheely chair. You know in films when the hero is chasing the villain and there’s and unexplained chair in the way and the hero just keeps running and uses the chair like a see-saw in an incredibly cool way?

That sort of happened.

Only I couldn’t keep running afterwards as I was flat on my face.

It hurt okay!

So anyway, I’m going to bed, but because I have abandoned you in your hour of Les Miserables need, I shall give you Les Miserables videos instead!

Oh don’t look at me like that, my knee hurts!

If you have seen the film, you will probably cry at this song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwp&v=J5B7W32vkio&NR=1

This one, if you’ve seen the film, you might cry. If not, you probably won’t. It might seem a bit disconnected, but it’s just Gavroche’s parts.

Anyway, I will now bid you adeiu!

Night

DFTBA,

Beth

I can’t type for crying ….

It is 10pm British time, and I just got back from watching Les Miserables for the first time.

I cried. Oh, I cried.

I am going to cry myself to sleep now.

More tomorrow. I think my emotions have just been disconnected through overuse.

Night!

DFTBA,

Beth

Companion Clothes

Reblogged from The Ramblings of Fashionably Awkward Tofu:

Right, listen up if you're a Doctor Who fan! My friend and I came across companionclothes.tumblr.com a few days ago, so I thought I'd share them with you!

It's run by Katie, a 19-year-old student, who has a love for fashion and Doctor Who. She includes photos of cosplayers as well as outfits inspired by all things Doctor Who, such as classic Who; the revival; the various aliens in the episodes; the various companions; men's outfits; prom outfits; and she even has some interpretive ones!

This is VERY awesome. Go look on the tumblr! :D

I spend too much time on the Doctor Who corner of YouTube …….

This is going to be about Doctor Who, because

a) it was on last night, and

b) I’ve been looking through my reader (see rebloggity thing below).

So in my reader I found two things which reminded me of Doctor Who. The post below, and one another.

It showed up in my reader, and it was just a few words, and a video.

And the video was, in fact, a song! (gasps of shock)

It was My Immortal by Evanescence.

Why does this make you think of Doctor Who, you may ask. (Well, maybe you wouldn’t. I don’t know.)

Well, mainly it’s because I watch too many Doctor Who song things off YouTube, which tends to mean that songs which aren’t even particularly sad can have be in floods of tears from the memory of the video.

And it’s a sad song anyway! And there are too many Evanescence songs that can be made into Doctor Who crying fests

So there was lot’s of crying, and then I had to go and find the video again and cry even more.

So here it is:

*sobbing in a corner*

But luckily, there are also funny ones. Lots and lots of them. Probably because everyone needs cheering up after watching all the sad ones. So happy videos! Lots and lots of them.

I spend too much time on YouTube.

And last but not least (I do love this one),

Ah! I feel much better now

Sorry non-Whovians (what have you been doing with your life?), you probably won’t get any of this.

It’s been fun though, hasn’t it?

Anyway, I think we shall end with the trailer for this Saturday’s episode – ooooooh ghost story! I do love a Doctor Who ghost story

Okay, I promise tomorrow won’t be quite so Doctor Who-centric.

Oh, and the Battle of the Bands thing was good

In case anyone cares.

The best person won …….

ANYWAY,

Bye!

DFTBA,

Beth

Letting Go Is More Than SciFi

Reblogged from Philosophy By Christy:

AN: This post is different from the other things I post on this blog, but I felt like sharing it here. Today I was drawn to write what is written below, and the show Doctor Who just helped. If there was anyone in the Doctor Who universe the most like me, it would be Clara Oswald. Some times really good books, shows, and music can bring something to you that would have taken a bit longer for you to realize.

Totally Focused …..

I am focused! I am focused! I am totally focused!

*ooooh butterfly …….*

No! Focus! You need to write this!

*Doctor Who starts in …….. Less than an hour!*

Anyway, post writing!

*I need to straighten my hair ………*

Right! I give up! This will be a …. distracted ….. post.

I’ve been watching the Lizzie Bennet Diaries! Go….. look …… Go! Now!

And the main reason I’m distracted is that at about 7:30 last night me, Taby, Elly and … others …… went to a Battle of the Bands thing at the cricket club!

Which we have literally NEVER done ANYTHING similar to before! EVER!

Taby practically ran away when we got to the door.

But surprisingly, it was a lot of fun

And wasn’t excruciatingly painful.

And there were a couple of really good bands as well!

So tonight we’re going again.

BUT DOCTOR WHO IS ON AT 6:15!

So I have to get utterly ready before Doctor Who and then run from my house into town when it finishes. And I’m not ready. So I have to go!

Trying to straighten my hair in 10 minutes flat.

Bye!

DFTBA,

Beth
