A fish out of water!

Everyone from work had a day out today!
We went paint balling.

Into a lovely secluded wood the far side of Canterbury. To be shot at and shoot a load of strangers. I made it through three games. Then the ridiculousness of hiding behind a tree while nasty pain full balls of food colouring are fired at you at 200 miles an hour, got the better of me and I went shopping instead.
Had a cream tea in earshot of the cathedral bells. Then a wander round the nearest garden center (didn’t tell anyone from work that bit, feeling like an old lady as it was!) Went back to pick up two teenagers later. £100 the day cost…….for the three of us…………..still a lot of money………..Good job I stopped when I did!

Bought a pack of hanging basket plants to plant up a flower sack. there is an advantage to little plants= you can get then through the holes in the sack.Think I should watch the DVD to see haw I should have done it!

Paint balling ?? I've never heard of it lol. I don't think I'd like it either. I would have left and gone to the garden centre like you did :o)) - much more enjoyable !
