Hi all!! So sorry it’s been such a
long time since I last blogged - with
the best of intentions, I got wrapped up in my last ten days in the UK, popping
here there and everywhere to catch up with people before I left.
And then after a
three hour car drive, 26 hour flight, 45 minute domestic flight and a fifteen
minute taxi, I was back where I started three months ago!
So FAR so GOOD with
the jetlag – the bf and I have been sleeping and waking at relatively normal
hours – hurrah. And I went straight back to work 12 hours after arriving! EEK!
So here’s a peek at
what I have been up to the last week or so via Instagram (my new addiction). Now that I’m unpacked and settled back into my freshly cleaned house (I had a
polishing frenzy last night! I think my house has wood for every surface
imaginable so it was a big job!), I can resume normal blogging entries :)
My last 10 days part one - due to my obsession with Instagram I will split this into two parts - aren't I kind!?
 |
| On the Friday I went for a lovely 'posh' dinner to bid adieu to one of my besties |
 |
| And wore my new hot pink trousers! Brave! How do you feel about bright trousers? |
 | |
| EXCUSE this horrrrrrrrrrendous photo of myself! :) On the Saturday evening I cooked a three course meal for my parents and grandparents. You may remember that a few months ago my Grancha was reeeeally ill, so it was lovely to spend some time with him and my fabulous Nanny Mac :) Nan said it was their first ever full vegetarian meal! Cute! |
The next morning I was up at 6am to travel to London to spend 24 hours with my youngest sister. We met in the centre to visit Spitalfields Market (it was MUCH bigger than the last time I went!! AMAZING!)
 |
| Funky street art in Spitalfields |
 |
| We had lunch at Covent Garden and spotted where they were setting up for the BAFTAS that evening! Oooh! |
 |
| And paid 13 pounds for the most ridiculous nail art EVER!!!! We HAD to laugh at how bad it was - otherwise we'd have cried!!! |
 |
| I bought my new skull ring at Spitalfields and have become firm friends with him since ;) |
 |
| And finally got around to sending this postcard to my colleagues in NZ - i'm back at work now and it still hasn't arrived yet - whoops!! ;) |
What have you been up to? :)
