Okay, so I’m not really dressed up (simple top, no bra, pj pants, unruly hair) and I do have places to go (take out the trash, do some more laundry, go to the gym).
I realised today that the 3 days I’m working this week won’t be as hard as I thought it’d be. I thought [...]

All dressed up and nowhere to go!

London, baby!: Thursday
The last installment where I
Eat more cupcakes, buy more shoes and make my dad proud!
On this final day of our trip, we’d decided to chill and walk around Notting Hill (more specifically Portobello Road) until it was time to take the train to the airport. So we went to Portobello Road!
There were some beautiful [...]

Wednesday Weirdness
(We interrupt the London Review as I am bored and Martin insists on playing some shoot-the-bad-guy-in-Africa-game (Farcry?). I suppose this will also replace the long-dead Friday’s Feast? Questions found here.)
1.) To you, what makes the perfect body the perfect body?
Curves, but I guess that’s because I don’t have that many myself! ;) Though if you can [...]

London, baby!: Wednesday
Wednesday was a busy, busy day. It was a day for
Sightseeing, boutique shopping and yarn groping!
We started out the day with yet another hearty breakfast, and then bought tickets with a tourist sightseeing bus company thing. They had stops all over central London, with either a live commentary or a recorded one. Then you drove [...]

London, baby!: Tuesday
Shopping, shopping and a musical!
Tuesday, after another big breakfast (scrambled eggs, sausage, some kind of fried tomatoes, toast with butter and jam, pastries, watermelon, pineapple, juice and tea…!) we set out for Oxford Street, one of the biggest shopping districts I’ve ever seen. Stores everywhere. Huge stores at that. TopShop was absolute hell; it was like four [...]

London, baby!: Monday
Alright, welcome to the first part of our London trip! If you’re here for the yarny goodies, you’ll have to wait until the Wednesday installment. Monday was all about
Flying, walking and eating cupcakes
We left for the airport Monday morning around 9. Our flight was at 10:50. I had left behind my blowdryer and my Ishbel [...]

Back from London!
I got back from London on Thursday evening, was very busy Friday and have had a very relaxing Saturday. I have loads of pictures to share with you, but I think I’ll make posts in a day-by-day mode – there are just too many to show at once! :) I bought lots of gorgeous yarns, [...]

Boo hiss, part II
As I may or may not have mentioned, I’m going to Sweden with Martin’s dad’s family in week 28. I got the week off from work, but am working a buttload of extra shifts the week before. And this is where the funny part comes in – I thought, obviously, since I’d been told that [...]

Advice
If you finish something and soak it, REMEMBER TO TAKE IT OUT. My new Felicity hat soaked for over an hour. Whoops. Still waiting to see how that’s going to turn out – hopefully I didn’t ruin it!

Boo hiss!
Dad told me yesterday that my luggage will consist of 1 (one) piece of carry-on. ONE PIECE OF CARRY-ON. I’m wondering if I should kill my dreams of buying some dream stash and kick-ass clothes, or just not pack anything other than a change of underwear and my toothbrush. How am I going to fit [...]
