Hey guys :) I started playing guitar about 9 months ago now, couldn't even play it when I got it! But 9months on and now I have started up a YouTube page of my progress, would love it if you could check me out and rate or comment on my progress :)

I'm not the best of singers but I gave it a bash an it sounds not to bad Lol

I got my guitar from a friend but recently got a new one for my birthday which was May19th and I've been playing it non stop since I got it :) Musical Gene runs in my family, I've always had a keen intreats in music and can play many instruments from the piano to the trumpet from the saxophone to the violin.
I won loads of awards and comps when I was at school, I came 1st out of all the schools in Ayrshire for young musician of the year, I was the youngest scot to win three years in a row at the burns music award aswell!
My Papa (my mums dad) was in a band when he was younger he played guitar and sang, he inspired me to start learning guitar. Also my mum and younger sister both play trumpet and saxophone and when younger my mum also won 1st for young musician of the year the same cup that I won and both our names are on the cup! Never got to keep it tho Lol

tshirt printing



Ive got mine..! have you got yours yet?? check out these new funky design, laser printed tshirts. Over at tshirt printing they were kind enough to send me one of there new funky tshirts to review. im a bit of a fashion follower, so was keen to check them out.
I sent the guy an email and before i knew it my tshirt had arrived... like the next day, i was surprised how FAST the service was.
They do a huge range of products from kids stuff to workwear. They have over 20years experience in the screen printing industry and offer an amazing servies. the also offer bespoke designs and personalised hoodies.

I wore mines today as the play motivators were coming to play games and do exercises with the mums and tods today at playgroup. so i needed something comfy and this was perfect, all the kids loved the funky design and was quite funny because we were playing a game where we were to use our imaginations and be on a Safari hut and looking out for all the animals in the jungel and the guy kept commenting on the monkey on my tshirt LOL!

anyways have a wee look at there website: http://www.tshirtprinting.net

quick wee beauty tip for us mums :)

Do you normally purchase expensive pore cleansing strips to remove blackheads from youre nose? Save your money! Because the answer could be hiding in youre childs arts and craft box!! YES.. arts and craft box :) multi purpose glue can truely be multi purpose and can be used to remove blackheads from your nose. Many of us played with as children by covering our hands with the stuff and peeling it of once it was dry. The same conceptcan be used to remove those horrid blackheads without the need of expensive products :)

things you will need: Multi purpose glue, safe or non toxic or white PVA glue


STEP ONE
always try alittle glue on a small area first to make sure there are no skin alegries or reactions to the product.

step two

wash your face with some soap thoroughly to help maximizw the removal of blackheads. dry.

step three

apply and even layer of glue over your nose and be sure to extend past the crease onto your cheek. Be sure to cover areas with the most visible blackheads.

step four

Allow ther glue to completely dry; 15-20 mins. Do not touch youre nose or wiggle it durignthe drying process.

step five once dry, peel the glue from the bottom near the cheek and away from the face. Peel slowly to pull the entire layer of glue without tearing. Take a look at the layer of glue, once removed, and you will see the dirt removed from your skin.

step six

wash your face again to remove any remaining glue.


I have tried this and it works much better than the expensive products, if you have trouble just using the glue and have a large problem area try using a little bit of sticky tape after the glue has dried and leave it on for another 5mins, peel it of and have a look!!

For a lovley youthfull glow give it a try and pass it on :)
