Clare Pullen

Winter Solstice Swim @standrewslakes 🤩 Last in - on brand Clarey faffing :) Last one out so it looks like I'm there all by myself - sometimes there is a bonus 😬 Fab event, fabulous team as always 600m 8.3 degrees - still practically tropical 🤣

Sooo it seems the incentive of a swim hat, a banana & shiny medal will make me do pretty much anything so on Saturday upped my swim game & entered @dock2docklondon with my baby bro @andy_np14 It's a fab event where you can swim between 1.5k (its a yes from me) & 20k (madness😱) in the murky green but 'excellent quality' water at the Royal Docks, next to city airport. I have been 'potter' swimming a lot over the summer (swimming a few km but slow) but was interested how 1 massive lap would differ from the shorter 3-600m laps of @standrewslakes . (When i first saw it, it looked as if i was about to swim the channel from the side 🤣) Despite having a timing chip (I'm like a profesh elite athlete now dont you know 😂) I didnt prioritise the "timeliness" element so chatted / dropped off a lost band to the safety team mid swim, re-blew my tow float after the timing mat & pretty much swam the widest course possible 🤣. (I know this will not surprise anyone) After a great amount of slicing & dicing of the results I was 14th in my gender/age group who swam without a wetsuit.. possible top 3 if you could restrict it by tow float/swimming cossie colour combinations.. defo first for the person who had neon face-paint /looked most like bananaman. It was so much fun (despite the gulp of water when I mistimed my start). Definitely going to be back next year to increase my sexy silicone hat collection 😍

Belfast & Ice Cream ..@markowenofficial @howarddonald & @officialgarybarlow had a picnic & Gary decided singing was more important that eating a 99 ice cream🍦 (the fool!). As luck would have it @laurahyams @gemgem15xx & I are amazingly good at eating ice cream and very rubbish at singing so it was a perfect opportunity to take it of their hands. Ultimately these are mainly pictures & videos of us being given an ice cream, singing with an ice cream, eating an ice cream so quality content right here PS waiting for the comment from Gem about her not being able to sing 🤣😜

Belfast @markowenofficial bought a picnic & we ate @officialgarybarlow 's 99 ice cream 🍦 5 stars Perfect day out - would definitely recommend 🤣 @takethat @howarddonald belfast #belsonic2024 #TakeThat #ThisLife #makethislifeyours

When @officialgarybarlow comes to you for Hold up a Light & for some unknown reason (considering the track record) you are on group video duties and press stop when he arrives & record after he's gone 🤣

HAPPY 50TH BIRTHDAY CLAREY! . Earlier this week I posted about parts of my life that I really miss since Motherhood, and hanging out in the free as a bird way as I used to with one of my bestest friends @clareyp is certainly one of the things I miss the most. . I met this crazy cat when we both worked in finance but didn't quite fit the mould of the typical accountant. . My @takethat tshirt and mug caught her eye, we struck up a friendship and the rest as they say is history. . This girls has been my ally at work, she's been my mood lifter when Ive needed her, she's pushed me around in a wheelchair when I couldn't walk and she was there by my side when I woke from surgery and was high on morphine. . Yes, we've been to hundreds of Take That concerts together, dressed in all the different fancy dress outfits you can think of and got @garybarlow to rock up and sing at our bestie @husseinatty with our fellow superheroes @gemgem15xx and @southenmrsowen but over-arching that is one of the most beautiful friendships with one of the most vibrant humans I know. . There's so much joy when this girl is in the room, and I'm immensley grateful to have her in my life. . Happy Birthday Clarey, I love you big time. .
