Fawlty Towers Dining experience

Fawlty towers the tv show is brilliant!

And when I saw the Dining Experience advertised I knew we had to go!

I am always a bit skeptical about theatre shows that require audience involvement because, in case you haven't notice I am freaking awkward... So I was terrified and excited at the same time.

The actors really even looked like the real actors :D From the minute the show started, with us being shown to our tables we were in stitches (there was this one lady who really took part in the show so the others thought she was in on it and placed there).

There were 7 of us to a table and three tables. Our table only had spoons... Manuel!

We had a typical 70s three course meal, which wasn't the best but the main focus was on the show anyway and the actors delivered!!!! I think Basils character was my favourite, his RIGHT! was on point! Imagine Basil's rudeness, Manuel's literal translations on every order and Sybil's attempts to give us a nice dining experience (occasionally yelling at her husband).

To be honest Sybil was the only one I didn't like... I think they portrayed her as being too good for this and enjoying humiliating her husband too much.. When the tv show she is more realistic and handles all the crisis calmly and efficiently.

Flat viewing

For some reason I just love looking at flats and houses :D I freaking love going in the houses in Old Town Tallinn. They're just so cool with their hundred (hidden) staircases and rooms and levels. I want to move in...

So when I spotted that there will be an opening day for new the new flats next to the new Tesco building here I couldn't pass the opportunity to be nosy. Although it was a bit awkward as at the time there was no one else there so the agent showed us around... Obviously interested in making a sale, but we just wanted to see.

They were so lovely though. The top floor (second floor) 2 bedroom flats were amazing! And with small balconies... God for a split second I even contemplated buying one... :D but they were all gone. Luckily for Mr. Specials wallet ;) 

All that was left were the ground floor flats but "thanks" to the big windows - awesome on top floor because of the view to the sea and harbour - practically anyone who walked by could get a pretty good glimpse into your flat... especially kitchen-lounge area that had double glass doors basically to the street (there is supposed to be a tiny terrace between)...

Omg I just went to the agents website and found they have a freaking 6 bed semi-detached house for sale for 400 000! What? The nicest top flat cost pretty much the same :D

I can't wait when we can move to new flat/house already!!!! Please let it be a new build tooo!

Staff

I just want to scream from the top of my lungs, then cry, then crawl into a hole and stay there for the rest of my life :D

I just can't anymore, why are people stupid? Why do they want things from me?

A while back one person went to work in another shop for a day, didn't tell anyone and didn't get paid. :D Now she's whining... Ummm.. excuse me?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Why the hell are you only telling me this nearly two months later? I have no idea how long you worked etc. How am I responsible for paying? So I sent an email to the other shop, all her details etc. And they did nothing! :D :D :D :D Like at least answer yes she worked for us or something? Anyone there?!?

Then I have another one who we missed 6 hours off, totally our fault but he can't wait til the next payday and needs to get it NOW!!!!! You do realise it's only like 40quid? And you just got paid. Yesterday... Have you already spent the rest? Or jesus christ are you one of those people who only has 5 pounds for the week for food or something? How can people live like that?

Then I have a girl who basically can't waste her time on work because of her uni studies and isn't willing to help out... Did I mention we have freaking 3 people off sick at the same time...

Why is the wage bill so high I wonder...

Then I have the others who as soon as I'm not there take cigarette breaks or are suddenly "super busy" in the office... And then most of the time complain that they didn't have enough time to do all the tasks that needed doing...

Dog sitting

About a year ago we offered to dog sit for Mr. Specials friend, only for the weekend. It was awful :O The dog was about a year old big energetic labradoodle. Jesus christ. Mr. Special took it for a walk all the way up penglais hill and back, about an hour and a half and the dog came back just as energetic as ever. Are you going to take me for a walk or not? Then at night it kept crying if we left him in the kitchen and barking when we let him be in our bedroom whenever someone would walk in the courtyard...

Did I mention we are not allowed to have pets according to the tenancy agreement?

Mr. Special is still having nightmares about it.

So when I said one of my friends is going away for a week and needs someone to look after her dog, he wasn't too happy about. But this time it was an old dog who barely ever made a sound. A perfect (illegal) dog for us? And he was bless him. But on the second day of us having it Mr. Special took it for a lunch time walk and bumped into one of the letting agents.... F****** perfect... Apparently there is a man living upstairs who has a severe dog allergy and we need to get rid asap!

Mr. Special was shitting himself :D even looking to book into a dog friendly hotel for a couple of nights, before the weekend when we could breathe easy - no office hours ;). But that would have been ridiculous... So we got the friends friend to take the dog for the rest of the time.

And you know what? All the agent (who even rang up that first day to check we would get rid of the dog) did was come to the courtyard and ask Mr. Special "is it done?"!!!!!! WTF?!?! That dog could've perfectly have been sleeping in the other room while that convo took place... FFS!

My little box summer edition

When I saw a review of the May box I knew I wanted this box too. I mean, it has French origins and delivers a variety of beauty products each month. So exciting! So I subscribed instantly and got the June box a couple of days later. Crazy fast.

Just my luck to get the worst one first :D If only I had looked at reviews before subscribing - not good :D

The box is super cute though

In that box were: 

• Kusmi tea Ice tea sachet, haven't tried yet...
• A see-through blue bikini bag that is quite cool. I use it for all the pretty-small bottles and make up stuff I have for travelling :)
• a mini nail polish - the perfect blue-greenish-mint colour but the quality is crap!
• a vest top that is one size and actually fits me :D 
• glitter eye shadow... yeap... not using...
• hair sea salt spray with UV filters - haven't used it yet but am optimistic about it at least :D (read from a review that it's supposed to give volume... Why haven't I used it yet!)
• a little magazine of girly stuff :D

Overall not the greatest start for me :D and was slowly starting to think I wasted my money on it but decided to wait for the next one before cancelling (if).

And omg the next one was the best: COCONUT!

I looooooooooove coconut :)

Like the box alone is sooo cool 

(I might have an obsession with boxes)

Insides were so much better this time too :)

• Magazine again, coconut themed
• Passport cover - all I need now is a passport...
• Small bracelet that just fits around my wrist :) Cute and not too extravagant :) Plus I like that I got the blue version and not the red one :)
• a dotted sash bag
• Yves Rocher noix de coco eau de toilette - smells sooooo nice
• Ojon rare blend oil moisture therapy 
• Hand cleansing gel that actually smells like coconut too
• After sun cream :)

Whats not to love?

How can they possibly follow that?

With the Friends box (sorry the photos are upside down :D I have to restart my comp if I want them rotated apparently :D don't ask)

• Sweet and salty propercorn popcorn that Mr. Special immediately hid away from me
• A clip on fish eye camera lens! OMG so cool 
• A nail care product pouch. Always handy to have with me and looks super cute :) 
• Banana-mango scented face cream... not too sure about the scent :/
• Batiste hair spray
• A sash bag to keep all that in :)
• A magazine again obvs

Can't wait for the next one already! :)

Followed

You know that feeling like someone's following you. All of a sudden they're a couple of steps behind you and seem to be walking in the same pace. So you naturally slow down to just let them pass. Because that's what they normally do. Because they are not following you obvs, they just happened to walk the same way at the same pace. Happens.

Not yesterday though. And when did it get so dark at 9PM?

So I heard footsteps behind me and saw a shadow that told me he was only a couple of steps behind me. So I slowed down a little. So did he. I slowed down even more. So did he. I was practically standing still pretending to look at cars and the scenery etc. and so was he all of a sudden. WTF? I could see it in the corner of my eye who it was. My downstairs neighbour who is not all there in the head. Super creepy. Always lurking behind the corner or in his flat. Harmless, I think.

Proper full stop now to "enjoy" the sea view (in pitch dark). He must walk on, what other choice does he have? Well, he chose to stop too, a couple steps behind me, just so I could see him from the corner of my eye. Whaaaaaaaat? Are you kidding me? Took my phone out and texted Mr. Special that I'm being followed. Waited ages (a couple of minutes) for him to reply. And yes all this time a figure was standing behind me.

Where is Mr. Special when you need him? Not looking at his phone that's where. I felt awkward just standing there so I went to sit down on a freaking wet bench! It had just rained. And had my phone out waiting for a reply. He came with and me stood a couple of steps to my left now. He couldn't stand behind me as he would've been on the road then. WTF do I do. If I move he'll just follow me! 

So I started playing candy crush. If he wants to be awkward and stand there like a weirdo. Go for it! Luckily he now left. Disappeared (quite fast now) into the darkness that surrounds the castle. So I got up and went home as quickly as possible too. Constantly looking over my shoulder now... (and yes with a wet bum... :D )
