Spray tans, sticky carpets and dirty minds!

As you know I've been a bit fed up recently , probably all this rainy weather , and I needed a much needed boost. This is where the lovely Katie Jones comes in, not only is she a right good laugh she's also one of the few people I would trust to see me naked at the moment. And that's exactly what she did. What a laugh - a spray tan! Always wanted to give it a go but didn't want to end up looking like a valleys chav. There's a bit of a stigma about spray tans around here , they don't look good, they are for cougars (bit more on that later) or big chested, lardy arsed valley slappers. When Katie suggest I give it a try it took me months to finally pluck up the courage. My decision was made by my lovely team, well not actually made by them but I thought they would be brutally honest with me if it all went tits up. Katie turned up with her pop up tent, I grabbed me an old pair of pants and then the deed was done. Amongst much laughter and gossip I stood they whilst she spray painted me, I went into the tent looking like a mini with a broken headlight and came out feeling like a Ferrari! Confidence is a funny old thing and there are tricks we can play to coax it out from behind the sofa and I had just found a new one! Result ...this will be happening again. Oh , and the verdict from the team was that I looked great! Talking of the team , 10 smashing guys and 2 lovely girls that are spread over the 4 corners of the country. They work hard and don't see each other that often but when they do it's a blast. I've only been with them for a few months but they've given me a new lease of life and make me laugh like a drain. I'm the oldest person in the team , but I'm deffo not their Mother or babysitter......in fact I'm obviously gonna have an affair ! David wishes he's had a £ for every time this one has come up over the years. Its sad that people don't understand friendships between men and woman, I've got great male friends and we don't have to sleep together , except for Dav Stanley of course, but that was just a conference thing......and I ended up with a contagious disease ....the flu! Being such a cougar I surprised myself by going home early after taking the team out on Thursday , totally nothing to do with my age but deffo to do with the fact I've never liked clubs with sticky floors or where you couldn't get a decent glass of fizz. Team enjoyed it though , some maybe a little to much. Next time I think we'll do something a little low key :) My PT will be turning up this morning and he'll be amazed when I show him my latest purchase ........I am now the proud owner of a cross trainer. Some people hide them away in their bedroom , not me - it's pride of place in the dining room next to the booze cabinet, how apt!!!!! Oh, must remind David to take a full length photo for me to send off for my Woman's magazine thing.....yep MacMillian Cancer have put me forward for another article, they need a 50 year old cancer survivor for a piece so that'll be me then!!! Let's hope they don't want a novelty shot! Hahahahaha!
