Heyy Bloggers, well as you know i didnt manage to blog about yesterday's adventures as i was too tired and it was quite late when i thought about it so sorry bloggers about that.
So lets start with yesterday....We in the morning after breakfast went down to the local shops and and searched for some potential souvenirs to take back to england with us. and yesterday two of my friends found a chinese market crammed with every kind of souvenir you could think so we all went in there and they were right. There were clothes, magnets shoes, glasswear,bags, purses and everything else that you could think of. Luckily we planned to go again during the end of the week because there is a lot of things that i could buy that we didnt have time for on our short visit and then for the rest of the daytime we just stayed around the hotel. After tea we watched the entertainment and it was a reptile show which wasnt any good and lasted only about 10 minutes and then later on we watched some circus performers and in my opinion was the worst circus i have ever seen and even the kids weren't that impressed.
Today all of us got up early and went to a different hotel linked to ours to go to the waterpark in that hotel and it was much more cooler (temperature wise) there which was more pleasurable for me considering my sunburn and the water wasnt that deep so I managed to go for a paddle which was definitely refreshing. The waterpark in it's interity wasn't that big at all but it was nice to relax without the big danger of getting sunburn :) later on the entertainment it is bingo which is a very british thing which i am looking forward to immensely! and then afterwards there is a competition called ideal couple which i think is the hotels version of take me out a tv show that we have in the UK and it looks quite fun and the staff in the hotel said that was going to be fun.
so thats yesterdays and todays adventures in lanzarote!!
come back tomorrow for more adventures

Getting our bearings!!
Hey Bloggers,
I am back as promised to tell you what we did today. so here we go!!
Well today was our first official full day in lanzarote so I woke up and got myself ready and then I went down to the restaurant to meet my friends for breakfast and i have got to admit it was a little bit too early for my liking but never mind. and when we got there i had bacon, sausage and a churro and then i had two pancakes with brown sugar and chocolate syrup on top and it was quite nice. I only say that because most of us didnt really rate the sausages too highly.
after breakfast we decided to go and have a walk around and we found a row of convenience shops where you could buy groceries, souvenirs etc and then we walked back and went into the pool. I only sat on the steps as I am not keen on swimming or water in general (i love drinking water though) but it was nice none the less and before we knew it it was lunchtime so we went and eat again but me and my friend found some braised steak and it was absolutely gorgeous and because it was i got a little carried away and thought my stomach was bigger than my eyes and it turned evidently that it was not.
Then we all decided to go back to our apartment to chill out before we had to come down for tea and then I realised that I had sunburn on my back and shoulders and a little bit on my arms (NO!!) but I had been putting on SPF 30 suncream on all day. that is how hot it has been. after I had had a shower and applied after sun all over my body that i could reach I had a siesta for a couple of hours and then i had tea (we went all inclusive) tonight the entertainment was a duo of spanish singers/muscians and they sounded really quite good and they sang both english and spanish songs unfortunately some of the english songs were quite dated in my opinion but they still played them really well.
And finally I am here....
See you tomorrow for some more lanzarote adventures!!

Flying To lanzarote!!
Hey bloggers,
well today i did a very grown up thing I have just flown out on my first abroad holiday without my parents!! yes it was daunting and it would have been a similar experience for my parents also but I am now in as the title suggests LANZAROTE!! and what i have decided to do on here in a bid to help me start blogging again is that hopefully (no promises) every night i will blog about what we did on that day and today is no exception so here we go!!
Well today I was picked up by my friends at 10 am and then we went to pick up another set of friends and then we were off to Leeds/Bradford airport we arrived a little bit too early but check in was open so we went in anyway and checked in and that and security went all smoothly. and then came the waiting game because we arrived at the airport a little bit too early that meant we had to wait what seemed like an eternity (and to be fair it practically was) for our flight to get called to see what gate we were at and luckily it was not that far away. but unfortunately we had to climb the stairs to board the plane which meant going outside and like typical england it was really belting it down with rain. so that made the steel steps all wet (no I didn't fall) so that was not so great. when i finally took my seat i had a window seat (YES!) because i love looking out of the window on planes it just looks spectacular and i knew i was in there for the long haul so i packed two books in my hand luggage they were
1. Michael Mcintyre´s life and laughing
2. Ant & Dec's Ooh! what a lovely pair
The flight was around 4 and a half hours long and it was a little bit bumpy in places especially on take off but the captain warned us about that pre takeoff because of the bad weather we had back in england.
I completely wore the wrong travelling clothes because i wore a jumper like top and some full length leggings and when we landed it was like a sauna it was 27 degrees at 7:30pm (yeah i know right!) we didnt really have any other issues really just that the cases took longer than planned and the transfer to the hotel took a little longer than planned but apart from that everything is great!
a more informative one for you tomorrow, I am going to my room to continue reading my books :D

Comedy DVD Reviews :D
Heyy Bloggers,. Well today blogger's I am going to be reviewing 2 DVD's from my stand up comedy collection and then rating them out of 5. These reviews are completely my own point of view and I haven't been asked or paid by anybody to review these DVD's I am just doing this because I want to.
The First DVD that I am going to review is Jon Richardson - Funny Magnet
The cover of this DVD looks like this....
The First DVD that I am going to review is Jon Richardson - Funny Magnet
The cover of this DVD looks like this....
I find this DVD quite a change from as the tone of this DVD is quite calming compared to a few other DVD's because Jon Richardson isn't hyperactive or really angry during some of there routines he is just known as being really grumpy and moans about the slightest niggle that plays on his mind and then he manages to overthink them and then take it out into the world and becomes even more irate when he spots it in the outside world. But the best thing about his annoyances they are at things that all of us become annoyed at from time to time i.e washing up many times on television and in this show he definitely states that he likes everything just so and everything has it's place. I find this a calming DVD because it is all done at a nice settled tempo and it is quite nice that he doesn't go and have a angry tantrum about his irritations and I find that to be easy watching. the certificate rating of the DVD is 15 which I do agree with as there is strong language used within this DVD and there is a couple of sexual references also used
The extras on the DVD is a live at the Apollo performance that does feature some of the material that is featured on the DVD
overall I enjoyed the DVD but the extras could use a bit work so I am going to give this DVD
main feature 4/5 Extras 3/5
The other DVD I am going to be reviewing today is going to be Joe Pasquale - The everything I have ever done & the first of many goodbye tours DVD
This DVD is a little bit unconventional because this DVD is a hybrid because it mixes comedy and magic!! of course its Joe Pasquale This DVD like all of Pasquale's work are old school family friendly Entertainment and this DVD I find very joyful to watch and the best bit about this DVD that anybody from the ages of 8-80 will be able to watch this and will be able to laugh at something within the main feature of the DVD The only problem I have with this DVD is that this DVD has a certificate 12 rating and if you have watched this DVD you will realise that there is 1 thing in the whole 90 minutes of the feature that would be acceptable for that rating I would have personally rated this DVD with a PG rating (Parental Guidance)
The extra's of this DVD is a video diary of Joe on tour and what get's up to whilst travelling from venue to venue on the tour and this extra last's approximately 30 minutes which i find is long enough because any longer on that extra it might have became too long. The other Extra on this DVD is the show with an audio commentary from Joe himself don't see the need for audio commentary on DVD's especially if they are talking over there own show all the way through.
I really like the main feature of this DVD a lot and I will give this 5/5 however the extras of this DVD are a tiny bit dissopointing so I am going to give them 4/5
that's all bloggers I hope you enjoyed the reviews

DVD REVIEW!! - Bradley Walsh Live!
Heyy Bloggers
the DVD that I am going to be reviewing for you today is Bradley Walsh live this DVD was released Christmas 2004 and nowadays Bradley Walsh is more known for presenting the primetime quiz show the chase in which I reckon he is also very funny whilst presenting that especially when he has his "mini breakdowns" as I like to call them when he thinks something is really funny during the show and he cant speak due to uncontrollable laughing this usually happens when the answer is either is slightly inappropriate or immature.
In this DVD however if you are used to him on the chase he is slightly more adult in this DVD as the language is quite strong as the DVD is a certificate 15 but he talks about everyday matters that people can relate to from family life to his childhood to holidays and he does it in this slightly sarcastic and moaning and quite matter of fact manner. He is also quite descriptive in his routines and it all relates to the point that he is making which I find quite good instead of going on a tangent most of the time. However one point of the DVD he does go on a tangent is where he is speaking about holidays and instead of saying brochures he says pamphlets and I find that very funny and her manages to inn cooperate this into the routine very seamlessly. The audience due interrupt him a couple of times during his set but he adlibs with the audience and he makes it work really well. the DVD is an 1 hour and 9 minutes long and in summary I thought it was very good and it made my laugh nearly every joke and I was very pleasantly surpriced
that's all bloggers
I would give this DVD a 4/5 and I would definitely recommend it to others

The Eurovision song contest 2014
Heyy Bloggers
well last night was the return of the Eurovision song contest 2014 and as most of Europe may know the winner was conchita wurst from Austria with the song "fly like a phoenix". so well done Austria and well done to everyone for competing in either the semi final and the grand final and it was yet again a fantastic show. My countries representative was Molly Smitten-Downes and she had a song called children of the universe which came in 17th place out of 26 which considering our recent form in the contest is an OK placing. so well done Molly! our commentators for the semi final was bbc radio 1's Scott mills and the I'm a celebrity get me out of here now presenter Laura Whitmore and for the grand final our commentator was Graham Norton in which made a few jokes of the actual Danish hosts of the contest but they managed to get him back at surprise him when they said thank you to all of the commentators and brought the television camera into his booth and sprayed confetti all over his booth and him.
In this years Eurovision this year was pretty much dominated by ballads or slower paced songs which kind of disappointed me as I quite like the faster songs and the novelty acts that to me is only unique to Eurovision and this year in my opinion I found that most of the acts took it too seriously Also this year on the bbc red button service we had the return of the sing along feature which I quite enjoy as when any of the songs come on the lyrics come onto the screen and you can sing along in either the original language the song is in our in English.
unfortunately the country in last place this year was France with a song called "moustache" which gained a grand total of 2 points which I though was quite unfair because to be honest I quite liked the song and I found it quite funny
another one of my favourites was Iceland's entry from Pollaponk unfortunately I cannot remember the name of the song but it was quite a jazzy number and was about stopping prejudice and they were wearing block colours on stage and even off stage in there other clothing i.e onesies and I found that quite refreshing. Another surprise of the contest well to me anyway was that Ireland failed to qualify for the grand final in which they have only failed to qualify for four years since they started entering the contest.
Hosting the actual show from Copenhagen in Denmark was two male presenters and one female presenter now I quite liked the male presenters I thought they bounced well off of each other but however the female presenter was quite wooden but she did do a good job nonetheless.
That's all bloggers and thank you Copenhagen for putting on a marvellous show and see you next year in Austria :)
