The Perks Of Being A House Maid.

Well I was a lady's maid today! I was helping in a reinactment. Gosh it was fun! I played a German maid called Hanna, she was Lady Georgina's maid. Lady Georgina and Hanna lived at Hanbury hall, and that was where the reinactment was. For those of you who don't know, Hanbury Hall is this place:


Grand isn't it?

Anyway, I dressed up as a maid and wondered the beautiful hall and gardens, in my costume. I felt right at home with the place... I felt really special and jazzed up :D.  

Lady Georgina and Sir Harry Vernon, owned Hanbury Hall back in the late 19th Century and early 20th Century. So we were doing a reinactment of their 50th wedding anniversary. It was good fun. I like being a German maid, I can speak German too which really helped me get into character!


Hanna and Sir Harry:


I look like I am about to burst out laughing...

Hanna and The Lady of the house, Georgina:


The Lady and her maid.

Smiles all round!

Flowers:

I think I made a good job of arranging those flowers!

A pay rise is in order!

Quiet as a mouse:


                                                As a maid I must be as quiet as a mouse... 
                                                                     Which I am. 
                      That is the servant's corridor I am walking down, the correct place for me!

Hanna, the maid:





I had so much fun today!
I really hope to do more stuff like this in the future :)

Welcome to my life, my friends...

Hmm... Where to start? Well, my name is Catherine - meaning Pure in Greek. But my friends just call me Cat, Cath and Highlights (Don't ask.) I am 14 years old and I live in a house with the most bizarre family in the world!

For starters, there is this guy:

This is my dad, a.k.a the King Of the Fluffy Bunnies, or Peter. He is very funny and I love him very much. My dad is good fun but is away a lot, working around the country :(... I miss him dearly, when he is away.

Secondly is this camera shy, amazing lady

This is my Mum, a.k.a Ruth. She is my biggest role model and means the world to me. She has been there for me and watched me go through my every high and low. She has giving me so much support and whatever I do will not be enough to thank her for raising me right. Love you Mum <3

Thirdly we have this minx...

 This little minx would be my little sister, a.k.a the loveable pest. Even though, she gets on my nerves like crazy and she annoys me till no end. She is three years younger than me but I love her and I always will. 


The Diva...






This is one of my cats, Poppy. She is a rescue cat, and is 7 years old. She is a sweet natured, patient, kind cat and is puts up with what me and Eleanor do to her. Yet she gets her own way in the house and is very demanding... (Escpecially when it comes to food!)


My Baby...






This is Rommey... 
He is ten years old and is a Norweign Forest Cat
He is my baby and no one else's. 




Ma Baby <3

The Poo Machine



 Literally Poos a lot. Is called Treacle. Is my sister's hamster. Nothing more to say.


ME.



So this is me. I have slim down a bit since this photo was taken. But yeah... this me.
