Rest in Peace my granny....

Yesterday evening, at the age of 91 (she was celebrating it last 16th April), my granny got re-united with her husband, son, daughter and other family.

No more pain, no more sorrow... it's all good now.

Please know that you will be missed.

Love, Angélique

Been on the radio!!!

About 10 minutes ago there was a competition to know the name of a person who was speaking about something on Radio 538.
I call this station a few times with competitions (some great ones!!), but this time, I was in the studio **yahoo**
It was sooooooooooooooo strange to hear yourself coming out of the radio hahaha.
I just woke up, and I always listen to that station and heard the voice and just knew it was Reinout Oerlemans. So I just tried to come through and I did...
So I said that to the host and he was wondering why I thought that and I said "Well, because of his voice" **duhhhhhhh**
He wanted to know why it was that man and I told him and he said that man was directing a famous Dutch book everybody has read overhere. Sorry, but not me..hehe
Wow... pretty cool **LOL**
So now they will send me a goodiebag with at least a tshirt in it.... they said they will send it as soon as possible... not a bad start of my weekend and holidays **yahoo!**

Well... this was my little adventure today so far *LOL*
Have to clean the toilet know (life can be sooooooooo hard)

Sesamstraat

(just for the Dutchies this time...)
Waarschijnlijk kennen jullie allemaal wel Sesamstraat. Je hebt het vroeger gekeken, of je kijkt het nu met je kids of kleinkids.
Vroeger werd er tegen mij gezegd: Na Sesamstraat ga je je bed in (duidelijker kun je niet zijn voor kleuters).
Echter... op dit moment staat Sesamstraat geprogrammeerd om 5 uur!!!
Vaak zijn kinderen dan nog bij de naschoolse opvang, of onderweg naar huis, of ouders zijn dan aan het koken, maar vooral: na Sesamstraat ga je echt je bed niet in, want dat is veel te vroeg.
Vind dus zelf te belachelijk voor woorden.

Daarom deze link...
Zou het fijn vinden als jullie een kijkje zouden nemen en de petitie willen tekenen.
Het is educatief gezien een goed programma, sluit aan bij de kids en is intercultureel.
Zorg dat Sesamstraat weer om half 7 op tv komt!!

Bedankt!

Questions...

I've been asked many questions about my London-trip. So here are your answers...

Yes, I've been there on my own, but have been in London for a lot of times, which included vacations with friends and family, but also all alone.
Just love this city a lot!

If you really wanna go to London on your own... it's no problem at all, even if it's your first time there.
I always take the Underground, or, if the Underground has no service, by bus. The public transport is great and if you just ask, people will help you.
At every Undergroundstation there are signs which way to travel and the map is always there as well. The system is really easy, just follow the colour :)

If you wanna travel to London for one day, please know what you'd like to see. Do you wanna shop or do you wanna see the Big Ben, etc.?
It normally takes me one day (or even over one day!) to shop Oxford and Regent Street. But hee.... I just looooooooooooove to shop **smile**

You can eat really cheap or at a fancy restaurant. I normally went to Debenhams during lunchtime with cold weather (like during Christmastime and like last time) to eat, and with warm weather (so 20+ degrees), I normally buy some sandwiches and drinks at M&S and go to the Park to eat like most people do in Summer. It's great!!

Well, it's just my fave European city, though I've been to a lot more.
And for the crafters among us.... There's a "Hobbycraft" store which you can reach by Underground in about 30 minutes time from the centre... and wow!!!!! Don't have that much scrapbookingstuff (even though the amount of ribbon really amazes me!), but what they have...wowie!!

If you have some questions about London, please ask ;)


I just read an email that I can pick up my photos this Wednesday!!! **yahoo!!**
Really can't wait to scrap them!!

Take care!
