Somewhere Over The Rainbow

Now I know that there aren't any cows in the Wizard of Oz but I can't help but love that film.  Little Dorothy clicking her red shoes (I need to get me some of those beauties!) and setting off down the yellow brick road... ahhh, it takes me back to my childhood.  
Hmmm, I wonder if they make them in cow sizes...
Which brings me back to the point of my moosings for today- the Rainbow Nursery in Stansted.  Now I've been taking Silly Calf to Spangles for some classes and she simply adores it, but I'm feeling the pressure of the celebrity lifestyle so I've been looking for some daycare options.  Rainbow seemed like the perfect option-just up the road from Lower Street, so very convenient.  And what's more, they'be asked me to appear at their family fun day on the 27th of May, which means I'll be able to meet mother yummy mummies too! Best get some bigger sunglasses for the school run though, it's never good to be papped before you've put your face on!


Anyway, if you spot me at the Rainbow Nursery Fun Day then come over for a chat and spare a few coins for my bucket!!

Better safe than sorry!!

Well I was moooost relieved to hear that the Air Ambulance helicopters have been cleared to fly again from 7am this morning.  With half of the UK’s fleet of 32 helicopters down yesterday, things weren’t looking good.  The Eurocopter EC 135 helicopters, used by the Air Ambulance in Scotland, Wales, North-West England and the Midlands, were temporarily withdrawn from service over concerns about possible cracks in the rotor hub, which were discovered during maintenance work.  Definitely a case of better safe than sorry I’d say- we wouldn’t want to put the fabulous Air Ambulance teams in danger.  I should have tried to sprout some wings and chipped in with the mountain rescues.  Well maybe not...my first aid skills aren’t really up to scratch.  Possibly in need of a refresher course...or two....or three.

Shopping ban...oops.

Matthew's taken possesion of my credit card- he said that Selfridges isn't any place for a Silly Cow like myself.  Granted I did knock over some perfume bottles, make a bit of a mess in the food hall and rip some skinny jeans whilst trying them on.  So, because I got chucked out before I had the chance to buy some new waders, Matty fashioned me this waterproof dress.  From bin bags.  Well recycled fashion is all the rage now don't you know!

Chatted up by a bird-it's not how it sounds!

Do you believe in love at first sight ... or should I fly past you again?
What's a cow like you doing in a place like this?
Did you get a parking ticket? Because you got fine written all over you

Now I know that fame comes with a price, but really?  Chatted up by a bird?! An actual bird, by the way, not a lady.  Peter the pigeon actually had the cheek to land on me and cheep these ridiculous chat up lines.  What happened to romance and chivalry, I ask you!
