Pumpkin Picking 2017

This post is expected every year as one of my favorite things you get to do in autumn is go Pumpkin picking so this year like last year and the year before I went to Beluncle farm in Hoo, Rochester. I went with a massive group of family friends this year and had such a lovely time and enjoyed a lovely pub lunch and drink afterwards. Can we also appreciate the mickey mouse back pack....thank you xx

Pumpkin picking from a field is so much better than rummaging through in Asda or another supermarket and you are supporting your local farmers. I feel like these Pumpkins are priced better as well as you get to the pay stand and there are just people pricing up your wheel barrows and they often will say oh just £1.00 for a large pumpkin which you often pay £3.00-£4.00 for in a regular supermarket. And on top of that its just a lovely day out, so I would defiantly suggest having a day out in October pumpkin picking and you can make a real day of it going out for dinner after like we did or going somewhere local for drinks.

This is Dominican Republic 2017

This year I went to Dominican republic for a family holiday, I stayed at Now Larimar in Punta Cana. I have stayed in Punta Cana before so I knew where I was going however it isn't the sort of place where you go walking around as we were informed it wasn't safe unless you were in specific places with your holiday rep. The hotel itself was lovely and doing the upgrade to use all the preferred facilities is defiantly worth it as it gives you access to more pools, different bar and the lounges which offer more food and drink. Best of all it gives you access to the restaurant called cast a way which serves a buffet breakfast and lunch which was lovely.

I had such a lovely two weeks in paradise and got to have some lovely family time and we were able to join in with all the activities they offered like canoeing and beach parties and dace lessons just to name a few. I included some pictures of the trip so you could see my amazing trip.

 

Liverpool Legends Charity Match

This weekend I went to Liverpool (believe me, that is a trip in itself without even walking the streets of Liverpool) and I went there to see the Liverpool legends football charity match. All proceeds go to the Liverpool foundations who help children with any sort of trouble in their life all over the UK and internationally with football and sport. They help children with disability play sport and allow them to feel like every other child in the world. The charity also teamed up with Kit Aid which takes people football kits which are in a good condition but no longer want and they are distributed out to children in countries where they aren't as privileged so they have nice clothes to wear and play sports in. 

I had much interest in the charity game not only because of the good cause but as well because my favourite player of all time was playing, Steven Gerrard. It was a lovely day and Liverpool legends ended up winning 4-3 with Robbie Fowler scoring a penalty and Steven Gerrard, John Aldridge and Micheal Owen all scoring for Liverpool. You could see which players had more recently retired form the game with players such as Daniel Agger and Jamie Carragher being much more fluent and on form however even players such as Steve Mcmanaman put in an effort and had a really good run out, Ian Rush still showing qualities in the game he had in his prime. Overall it was a game of friendly competition and enjoyed by all that attended.

This is an event I will be looking out for in the future if it was ever to happen again then I will defiantly be attending.
