Raeisms and rambling ons!

Just a quickie...


ok, so here I am again after not being on for ages or is it more of just saying I haven't been on for a while or ages... am hoping to do a blog about "Disability Access" and using the 'red cord cards' that were inspired by Euan's Guide and Gem's Wheelsnoheels youtube vlogging... but that's for the future trying to get more info to put everything up on here!

So, the main reason I haven't been on is, me being the twit that I am pulled most of the cords out to the wires on my monitor screen not to mention my laptop overheating and me not being able to see what I type let alone get on to anything on the great internet... so my sincere apology guys!

I WILL BE BACK WITH MORE BLOGS I ASSURE YOU! Also, please email me if you see any spelling mistakes, I try and use the Grammarly application for doing blog posts etc.

Until next time...KEEP RANDOM!

Rae's curiosities in the charity shop!

Curiocities whilst working in a charity shop!

 
Ok, don't get me wrong, who doesn't find strange things when you go into a local charity shop or thrift store! I work in one of our local quirky ones here in my town along with another one in another town.  There are just some interesting people that come in!! 

Like the pin badge lady, the waitress in the local coffee shop that does them special little immaculate hearts in hot chocolates mmmm... and also the 50p lady that comes in changing her £1's for 50ps and finding the rarist and strangest looking ones...

Then there's the two 'Bosses' as I call them you know who you are that do them amazing displays with the teddy bears, kiddies toys and also to the one fellow employee that switches things round on different days (for fun) to see if people would notice... I'm going to nick name u all in a moment...and to the quirky customers that come in.
 
THIS IS FOR YOU LADIES AND GENTS, THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR MAKING MY YEAR 2019 and not just my days whilst working at the charity shops!
 
Mollie, Little Mo, The 50p lady, Mr Switcharound, Pin badge lady, the heart of E'wold, the suceeders, Mr Nuts!....
 
 

To the best mumbles!...:D

Happy Birthday Mum!

Geocaching and the places it takes you

Geocaching and the places it takes you - Rae


Hi, Rae here again, ok so mostly it's me posting on this blog as the mad 'Bred in Yorkshire lass'... ok, well I can't say I was born up here as I was born further 'down south' of England, UK but that's for another story and blog post may be in the near distant future! ;) ... As ever my blog posts are as Random as ever, the most thing that's a bad thing, most think it's good... I'm not quite sure what to think of it... a Random crazy Brit that has so many questions for the world and also about the birds, nature, wildlife, geocaching and all other hobbies etc...etc... you know how it goes.  WARNING... my worst thing I ever have done was possibly learn to touch type! ... It drives people insane and sometimes it doesn't help with autocorrect ...

Thanks to Grammarly, (hey it didn't correct my spelling heh!) no this isn't sponcered but wow, wish it was! ;) I can't thank Grammarly enough for helping me through blog posts and possibly even more bloggers like me out there... anyway on to the topic! ...

GEOCACHING ... I went one Sunday afternoon, in fact it was last Sunday from the date on this blog post as I am sat here, hearing the 10pm church bells ring from one of the many churches here in my little town in the North of England... trying to post pictures of the rather curious photos that I took whilst experiencing 2 or maybe more of Thorpe Underwood and villages geocaches, up here in North Yorkshire, England, UK.... there are some strange caches out there that I've seen in the world mostly many of them are on videos and vlogs from famous cachers around the world. But there were two that I found in this perticular trail of caches, whom I can't name for privacy and geocaching etticate reasons!  These two were hard, sadly me and my poor step father whom I drag along with my mother, aunt and uncle.... A quick shout out to my Step dad Terry whom must be the worlds best non hardcore non purposely geocacher there ever was!! Also to my Father John for coping with my mad geocaching addiction and both for tramming me round on these mad experiences! I can't thank them both enough and poor mum Jenny! lol. BACK TO THE CACHE!! Don't get sidetracked Rae!! (Yes, there's a cache series called that also I'll link a cache event that i'm going to below.)

This one cache was where you had to fill it up with water and float the cache out although, the twits we were a. didn't ahve any water and b. by the time Rae had got to it not naming whom had decided to cheat  instead of filling one of the caches up with water and the other with sticks that you had to poke through holes to get it to the top....mind you DAYLIGHT WAS FADING and two cachers were adament to get the damn things done lol WE DO APOLOGISE!!! haha...  ahem... here are the pics!

There are some strange and interesting places that you would never have gone to if it wasn't for geocaching, one which led me to my mums birthday party... another to a little free library... another to very scenic places.
< Rae's healthy lunch though!!

Smile....Breathe...

Daily Intention from Mish on Kindspring.org


🙏”Smile, breathe and go slowly. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh

✨“Ahhhh the essence of pure, radiant living. Smiling relieves tension and lifts hearts, breathing is the one thing we can actually control and deep breathing has so many benefits. Slow down, don’t rush so fast. Take your time. Enjoy your life. Whatever is worrying you right now, let it go. Take a deep breath and acknowledge that things will get better. Stay in the present for it is the only moment available to us and it is the door to all other moments. Regard it deeply, preciously.” ✨~ Amy Waltz
