Trip to the country

So last Thursday I am off again to Oxford Street trawling the usual shops when I get a text from Madame, will I go to John Lewis to enquire about our flooring. Just as well as the previous day she had phoned them and after waiting 25 minutes they hadn't answered her call. Aaaanyway the upshot is our order had disappeared and they have had to order it all again and we will not be getting it until nearly xmas.





Friday see Madame and I off to Oxford Street to see if we can get my Christmas present in the M&S black friday sale and we do, a thumping 30% off which makes the difference between getting it and... not. We pop over to Primark which surprisingly is not busy and I get a new bra. I fancied being a bit bigger so go for a 36D :-) We pop to John Lewis and take lunch in Bond's in Dering Street and them home.

Saturday see us off to see friends in Kent. A nice drive down, 2 hours including a half hour stop at the dire service station just before the Dartford Crossing. A lovely time was had and we all got to bed around 12.30. Up with the lark Sunday although by the time everyone is ready its nearly eleven and we all go off to Faversham. A rather quaint place but as born and bred Londoners it is rather quiet. We take coffee in a rather nice cafe/gallery with the most lovely cheese scones. We wander the little market and its back to the car. We take our leave after a light lunch about three and are home in an hour and a half which was a miracle considering that forecast 50 mph draft and no rain thank god.

Having a fit

A nice lunch out yesterday, not en femme but hey you can't have everything. Semi-country pub and you know what these faux countryside people are like. Well I don't mind the weird looks etc but I don't see why those in whose company I am should have to put up with it. Aaaaanyay a well off diet meal, so far off it was almost criminal but then again we all deserve a treat now and then and we did manage to refuse a sweet, just the two courses.
Sooo post lunch we call in at some retail park 'cos they have an absolutely humungeous M&S. I got myself a leopardskin top to go with the jacket and madame bought me a rather nice jumper :-) All of which of course begged a photo session this morning.



While madame goes off to collect the leopardskin jacket from M&S I think its about time some other discarded items were given an airing and what do you know, they fit too ! All this dieting really does pay dividends :-)



I had, over the previous weeks done other photo sessions, mainly to see what went with what.
