Trip to Skegness with Lou, August 2024

On Wednesday 14th August, me and my good friend Lou went to Skegness for the day. Usually I go annually with my gran on a local bus trip but unfortunately she took ill. It was nice in a way though to do something different with my friend, as me and gran usually do the same thing each time..here is an account of our day…

Unfortunately the bus was running late so we didn’t get into Skegness until late morning. I had a vegetarian pizza 🍕 (I’m a veggie) then we leisurely strolled around Ingoldmells market. I purchased a beautiful off the shoulder elephant 🐘 bag (I adore elephants!) and a new funky bumbag.. It was easy travelling back to Skegness central..

It was incredible at the Natureland seal sanctuary! The seals 🦭 were beautiful! There was a reptile exhibit which I enjoyed the least to be honest as I’m petrified of snakes! 🐍 But a brown butterfly landed on Lou’s bag in the tropical butterflies area. There was a pet’s corner too with goats and alpacas! They’re such funny animals! The penguins were gorgeous too, I love penguins 🐧 The aquarium was cool too. I purchased a seal teddy to add to my extensive teddy collection lol 😆..

We finished off the day by going on fair ground rides! We went on the pirate ☠️ ship, waltzers and ghost 👻 train!

Aww, it was such a fantastic day and a much needed break, had a wonderful time 💕💕

For my next UnicornPostbox blog post, I am on with a peacock 🦚 diamond art  💎 🎨 and there is also a new pub painting coming up in September..

Thank you as always for taking the time to read/view, many thanks, Lauren xx

‘Penguins in love’ amateur acrylic painting

Hi everyone, thanks for checking out my personal blog! My latest post is progression photos of an amateur acrylic painting of two love struck penguins, created this month at pub painting..hope you enjoy! 😀

I must be honest, out of the other three pub paintings I’ve done, I found this the most challenging..when it came to silhouetting the two love birds anyway, lol.. but although I am only an amateur artist, I think they’re a little bit cute, hehe…I’m looking forward to the next session in a month’s time with my friend Denise! 😀

And here are the finished ‘Penguins in love’🐧🐧 💙💙

Thank you so much for reading/viewing, and keep an eye out for my next artistic project blog post..

Lots of love, Lauren xx
