Embracing My Dirty Thirties...

This weekend, I turned 30 years of age - scary yes but there's no denying I had a fabulous time lapping up the attention and love ... presents galore, champagne aplenty and all surrounded by my wonderful family and friends. It's safe to say if life at 30 is this good then I am in for a cracking 10 more years... 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HK MOUSE!

Once again it's birthday time and last but definitely not least it's HK MOUSE'S turn! 

All the way over in HK the cake will be cut, cocktails and champagne glasses will be clinking and presents will be ripped open, all in aid of our favourite Hong Kong Mouse! Well that's if her bikini fit diet will allow....it is only one day after all!  

I think now is the right time to pull the baby photos on her don't you?! If there were ever to be an innocent, sweet, good natured little girl Natalie was it - long blonde locks with a halo of fluffy baby hair that she hated but only made her even more sweet! See for yourself...

Being the eldest of the robo trio she has always taken that position with pride...constantly looking after her baby sissys, spoiling us rotten, helping us with Pythagoras' Theorem and introducing us to Topshop skinny jeans! 

When she was titch she always had her little nose in The Faraway Tree, let her imagination run away thinking up the best games for us three and was never too far away from the dressing up box! How times have changed...not! She's always on her kindle, was the brain behind the 3BM concept and uploads HK fancy dress photos most weekends....a mouse never changes its whiskers! 

We miss her very much and it makes us extremely sad that we can't say happy birthday in person but only 29 days and we can have a secondary celebration! In the meantime we leave you with your very own birthday blog post and three big birthday kisses from Minnie Mouse in London, Daddy Mouse in St.Albans and Middle Mouse in Oslo! 

That's it for another year of 3BM birthdays...a year older and most definitely wiser I would say!!

As always and in birthday tradition please join us in wishing HK mouse a massive Happy Birthday and leaving her a celebratory comment...she will seriously LOVE it! 

All that's left to say is...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NATALIE MOUSE WE LOVE YOU LOTSSSS!

We're all drunk on Jubilee Juice...Hic!

It's hump Wednesday which means only two more early work wake-ups until we hit the all time Jubilee high! With a four-day weekend fast approaching (sorry non-UK blog buds, don't mean to brag...), could we be anymore excited??? Well yes... the highstreet, web and magazines are full to the brim with ways to make this weekend extra special and one to remember! See our fav Jubilee finds below...


With Britons set to spend (according to the Daily Mail online) a whopping £823 million celebrating the Jubilee this weekend, what better way of getting involved in the action than with a bottle of champers! Moet & Chandon has launched an exclusive Diamond Jubilee Cuvee in honour of Her Maj! The champagne has a Royal history don't you know - Moet & Chandon has held the Royal Warrant since Queen Victoria recognised the quality of the champagne back in 1893. With that in mind it would be plain rude not to indulge over the celebratory weekend - come on, get sloshed with the Bad Mice, you know you want to! Available from various stores including Waitrose, Selfridges and Fortnum & Mason.

The British sandwich chain, Pret a Manger has come over all Jubilee dizzy! Not only have they launched three British classics in honour of the Queen; coronation chicken sandwich; Pret bakewell tart; ceylon blend of tea BUT they are also offering customers the chance to eat for free this week! Today I popped into the Queensway store on my lunch break and the cashier produced 3 giant playing cards from underneath the counter. He asked me to pick one of the cards and show him. He then muddled the cards up and challenged me to try and pick the same card for my chance to walk away with my cheapest Pret item free of charge. What a spiffing idea, as the queen would say! Get yourself down there pronto and try your luck!
