Not letting people walk all over you! Oh Maplins!

So the other day my hubby bought our son a remote control UFO for christmas but when I opened it when he got home I seen it didn't come with the spare rotary blade it specified on the box, the only one was the one already attached to the UFO. So this morning I went in without the product just the reciept, and Harry Potter (the shop assistant looked just like him minus the lightning scar) got another off the shelf and said it doesn't come with one nor does it say on the box, so me being nice I said my mistake and left, on arriving home I double checked the box and I was right. So I went straight back and spoke to the man at the front. 'I came in here before about a spare roter blade for the UFO I bought (I showed him the empty box) and Harry Potter at the back said it doesn't mention a spare blade. Now if you look at number 6 on the specification it clearly states their is. Why do you employ people who can't do their job properly and can't read the box specifications. I expect my box to have everything in it and people not too make me a fool.'
'I'll check with the manager but sometimes a box can be misprinted.' He said walking off quickly. Ok how can 100's of boxes be misprinted, still I'm owed a spare blade. He arrives back ten minutes later, with another one of the products. 'The spare blade is in with the USB cable.'
'We never got a spare blade if we did I wouldn't be here.'
'Take it.'
'Do you want to see my reciept first.'
No, no, no just take take the blade,take it.' I took it and he sped off. Woops I think I scared him, anyone would think I was holding him at gun point, oh well his colleague shouldn't be such an idiot. No wonder it doesn't have it's spare parts if the employee's are taking the spare parts for the one's missing and putting the new ones back. So the point of this, is no matter if you are the employee or a customer if you're right stand up for yourself, you get what you want. My dad laughed when I told him and joked that next time he buys a new car he'd take me to help him get some stuff for it, lol.

Perfume Fragrances and Heaven Scent by Sasha Wagstaff.

Ok so I absolutely love perfume so that's probably the main reason why I enjoyed Heaven Scent by Sasha Wagstaff, that and the fact it has romance and drama in it. I reccomend that book 100% to see my full view check out http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/5621625-princesscj1989

So I'm on the look out for a new perfume, I love oriental floral perfumes like LuLu by Cacharel Lola by Marc Jacobs. So on my seach I tried Katy Perrys Purr, well I loved the bottle but the perfume was a bit sickly for my taste, it's a fruity floral. On my search I had to explain to the perfume lady what a light fruity floral was and an orinetal floral and you know what she said I'm a diffucult customer because I know what notes I like and what I don't. I'd have thought that would have made me an easier customer, so after this fail I went spraying on my own and came across a perfume I think I'll really like. 'Paco RabannE - Lady Million'

Dodgy light fitting's and parents who don't care.

So yesterday a kid in my sons class threw his book bag at the light and the light fitting fell down and hit my son in the head. Now these lights are long and heavy, luckily he wasn't badly injured. I have the same light fittings in my kitchen so I've been chucking things at it and surpirse it didn't fall. After speaking to the school they've checked some of the fittings thankfully.
Now onto the child that threw it, this kid constantly picks on my son, pushing him and hitting him. So I decided that this morning I would speak to his mum calmly, I'll give you some convo let's call her nasty and her friend, nasty friend lol.
Me: Can I have a word? (blank face from his mum) Have you spoke to your son about yesterday?
Nasty: None of your business.
Me: Look he constantly picks on my son.
Nasty Friend: Speak to the school not us.
Me: I'm talking to your daughter not you. (Apparently they're not related, they look like it lol) The schools spoke to you but it keeps happening, it's been going on for a year.
Nasty: You don't know who you are messing with
(Both give me evils and leave)

Weird, I know but I don't want my son to be picked on or light fittings fall on his head. My son may sometimes not do as he's told but he would never hurt another child, he's a sweet kid who cares for others.

Having more kids. :-)

So everytime I see any of my friends & some family members they ask me about having more kids. I think it's because I have a 5 year old they assume I want another right now and honestly sometimes I do but being logical, right now is not a good time. I have my whole life ahead of me and I'm only 22 as the title of my blog says. It's not because I want to go out and get drunk, I don't see the point in that, no offence on anyone who likes to. I want to dedicate my spare time to writing my novels (when I'm not having writers block lol) and taking my son out. About a year ago I was really wanting another child but then I realised I wasn't ready and neither is my house hahaha it needs a lot of work.
I know this is a weird blog but it's just a question I get asked at least once a month 'Are you planning on more kids SOON?' My answer is 'No.' Ask me the same question in about 3 years and my answer will probably be yes. :-) That's if my hubby wants to. Take care x

Rant about a childish 32 year old

So the other day my husbands ex training partners girlfriend asks me about our other halfs traning together again and I tell her that my hubby has already spoke to him about it (andy is very commited to bodybuilding and he has never missed training) I told her, her boyfriend already spoke to Andy. All of a sudden her tune changes. Well Neil has a new training partner, and he can't be dealing with people messing him about. He said next time he sees Ash (my hubbys training partner) he's going to bang him (another word was used but lets not say that).
So I go to the gym before town and tell my husband and Ash is there, it doesn't go down well. Later in the day picking my son up from school my husband and her speak, and I get called over. She denies everything and then tells me 'I don't know who I'm messing with' then she turns to my hubby and says 'do you even know you wife?' (Mu hubby sticks up for me :-) ) So I'm fuming and tell her something from 2 years previous 'Do you even know your boyfriend, asking for my friends numbers saying he wants out of his relationship' She's not happy about this and gets in my face. On leaving school grounds I retaliate 'Hey Nicola you best watch yourself.' Later that night after phone calls (her boyfriend denies it, but they don't have a healthy relationship with black eyes to each other and mental abuse) we get texts saying they want to leave it. So we agree.
She is still lost in school times literally she has told everyone of the schools parents her version (it's a small school) and I get numerous dirty looks now this would bother me if I cared, half of the parents are sheep. All in all she should grow up she has 3 kids and is 32. I'm 22 and I know better.
I think this started through anger of her boyfriend giving up the gym and my hubby not wanting to train with him after him being let down for 2 years. Get over it, be supportive to what your boyfriend wants, I'm supportive of my husbands and his goals and on a side note, I'm very proud of my hubby as he's worked hard to get where he is and become a sponsered athlete.

Hot weather in October and Halloween Movies.

I can't believe it's the first of October already, and more than that, I can't believe its roasting hot. If I was a potato I would be crispy. I know at this time of year other places are always hot but not the UK especially the North West. With weather like this it's unbelievable how close Christmas is, this is July weather not October, I mean Halloween is at the end of the month. And one thing I don't look forward to is Halloween and all the creepy movies and by creepy movies I don't mean Insidious or Mirrors. I mean Hocus Pocus and Casper and I'm not joking. Can someone tell me what is right with the creepy witches sucking the life out of kids? It terrfies me really bad and don't get me started on Casper. It's not the concept of the movie, it's Casper the way he's all friendly and says hello, his uncles are less creepy. For halloween this year I think I'll stick with Practical Magic, it's usually on at halloween time as the ending is in Halloween. :-)
I will be updating my blog weekly now and back with youtube videos soon. Take care.

Welcome

This is going to be my official blog for my writings. I have wanted to write for aslong as I can remember, the problem I have is acutally finishing the novel, I get halfway through, take a week break and my drive has gone, but I am determined to finish one. My aim is to be a published author by 2012 whether it be the end of 2012 or before.

I'll post some get to know me questions soon.
