  Anna’s off  on the 22nd for a photoshoot in that wonderful hot-spot, Marbella. I’m very excited at the prospect of  photoshoot with my good friend, Amber Sweet-Petite. All my fabulous swimwear has been packed, together with appropriate wardrobe , so we should get some amazing pictures.(Even some cheeky ones). 

           Once our assignment  is complete,  hopefully we will get the chance to enjoy the delights of Marbella  and indulge in the social scene  of exquisite wining and dining. There may even be a window of  opportunity to just soak up the sun and relax a little -heaven.

World Title in Manchester.

Another local guy performs brilliantly, and puts Manchester on the global stage yet again.Saturday evening  saw the boxing event of Amir Khan, held at the magnificent MEN Arena.

I was so privileged to accompany my date who had tickets for the event, especially as our seats were ringside, what a view —-I was spotted on T.V. but hey, I’m no shrinking violet. I love boxing events because its so fabulous to experience the atmosphere, it always feels as though there is a sexual tension in the air (all that testosterone) and being a sensitive women, I can pick up on the prevailing undercurrent of masculinity. A heady and sexy mix for sure.

The crowd was buzzing with all the local support together with the media guys and business men, not to mention the celebs who attended. Absolutely electric.

On a practical note, I was very appreciative of our ringside seats, for the steps of the arena  are pretty awesome, especially if you have to teeter down them in the high heels I wear. For this event, I chose to wear my white  Victoria Beckham jeans which I have been told flatter my figure and look stunning. Although stunning sums up the entrance of Amir Khan, resplendent in Golden Cape and trunks he entered the Arena as only a star can – and the crowd went wild.

He was fighting a worthy opponent, Ukraine’s Andreas Kotelnik, and the fight went the distance with Khan winning on points. There happened to be a couple of moments which could have troubled Khan when in the 3rd round a crushing blow  was delivered by Kotelnik. but Khan recovered and went on to be crowned WBA World Chapion.

Our evening finished off at one of my favorite places, the Little Yang Sing in Manchester. Bottles of champagne flowed freely and it seemed as though most of the patrons there had come from the boxing.Again the company was male dominated and chat and drinks flowed from table to table as we all relived a wonderful evening of true entertainment – and success. A great way to end a most exhilerating night.

love my short skirts !!!!!

It was only because I received a phone call from a lovely couple in Bowness that prompted me to share my week-end break experience, even though it was a while ago. Normally, when we meet people on holiday or on short breaks away, we promise to keep in touch, and  although well- intentioned , we  very rarely do. I, like most people, fully intend to,  but when back home, daily routines kick -in and time passes by and the moment is lost .Imagine my surprise when this lovely couple did keep in touch ——and so I share this weekend- break experience with you.

Back in May, The Bank Holiday presented me with a opportunity to have a weekend break in the Lake District. Myself  and my date made the journey in a fabulous convertable sports car as the weather was very pleasant. The views were spectacular  and it was pure joy taking in the wonderful scenery- and just to feel the wind in my hair was exilarating. Of course I dressed accordingly, a very nice flowery apple-green number (suitably mini), accompanied by my trademark high- heels and designer sunglasses. A sexy outfit to match a sexy car, which totally met with my date’s approval! Our dining experience was at the Porthole  Restaurant  (Lucy 4). The menu is loosely based on Tapas and very socially interactive, lots of choice. The ambience was excellent , as was our wine of choice for the evening , a full -bodied Rioja. It was such an enjoyable evening, mixing with the local folk and  ‘weekend -breakers’. I even discoverered that this establishment runs its own cookery school – mental note made, who knows , one day I may even partake and enhance my culinary skills..!

We had not taken into account how busy the hotels would be during the Bank Holiday and finding suitable accommdation was proving a little problematic,  so our intention was to drive back to Manchester. However, during the evening as the dancing got underway, we got caught up in the atmosphere and carried on ‘boogying’ well into the early hours. A very friendly D.J. playing great music (80′s classics), a favourite of mine. We got talking to a lovely couple and it wasn’t long before I and my newly acquired lady-friend started our dirty-dancing. Being game for a laugh, we really strutted our stuff and had a ball. This couple were amazing, and after hearing of our plight  with accomodation, kindly offered us an invitation to stay in their home in Bowness. I was touched by this genuine act of friendship and we accepted their kind offer. We stayed in a private wing of this fabulous home and awoke early to a wonderful home-cooked breakfast. Not wanting to impose any further, and with my faith in human nature complete, we bid our farewells with gratitude! xxx Anna
