And behind the scenes fun!"},"content":{"rendered":"

Coming up – behind the scenes fun. First… How time flies, right?! One whole year since my granddaughter Phoebe was born in Wales, and now 12 months later, we celebrated with a lovely afternoon tea at a superb bed and breakfast, remember the one with the hot tub?<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Well, Phoebe did not get in the hot tub but she really enjoyed being made a fuss of, and ripping open lots of presents. She is just a fraction away from walking at the moment, she will do four steps then fall laughing into your arms, she\u2019s at that adorable stage. Top pressies included a walk-along toy and a ball shape-sorter maze thing. She is very clever. Kate at Dol Llain Mansion in Llandysul in the south west coast of Wales laid on a lovely afternoon tea for the adults and some nibbles for the baby too.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Then we had time to go back to Lauren\u2019s and take a walk in the rambling Welsh countryside, the weather held off so we were lucky and admired the wonderful views. My sis-in-law Alison, my mum, her partner David, Lauren and Nick (carrying baby Phoebe – she\u2019s out of sight as they don\u2019t want her to be a social media baby, as regulars will know) enjoyed a bracing walk. A good weekend was had by all, I just hope it\u2019s not long before I see her again.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Curlers and cheesy grins<\/strong><\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n

Charlie and I competed with Rachael the lovely make-up lady behind the scenes at QVC to see who could put the biggest smile on. Charlie is always good fun and is such a joker. While I looked like this, doing my best impression of Hilda Ogden, I said to him are you going home now? And he leaned provocatively up against the door frame with his hand above his head, and said “Why? Are you asking\u2026?” He is so funny. It takes me about half an hour to get ready now that we have make-up artists, and it is a really luxurious treat to have someone help you and get everything right. I can do it myself double sharp-ish, but it\u2019s better to have the experts do the eyeliner, and so on. This curling device is the Ego Hair Curling Pod, so fast and even though we stopped selling it a while ago mine is still going strong, I love it!<\/p>\n
