My first week back at work was pretty low key. I went to the hairdresser that week and didn't get up to too much. I think I spent a bit of time looking up houses for moving and just getting back into the swing of things. On the Saturday I went and looked at a lovely place (spoiler alert: I'm sitting on my bed in it now). That evening I hit Camden with Tim, Carina and Amy which was loads of fun. Once again, there was a night bus pulling up as I left Koko, such luck! Such a fun night! The next day I just chilled out and watched Man City vs Man U in the FA Cup. On the Monday I caught up with Ally & Matt at The Swan. It'd had been about a month since I'd seen them! I have a feeling I was back there on the Tuesday but I can't remember, maybe Jenny came...? Jenny, if you're reading this, did you?
Tuesday 10th January - I'm went home and continued packing my stuff for my upcoming move. That week I had been having a bit of asthma as the weather had cooled down a lot. I was possibly going to do out with the girls and Habib & Alex who were in London at the time, however I thought I'd best stay in due to the cold and my lack of oxygen. I went down to the walk-in medical centre before work one day as I needed a script for ventolin. I was very impressed with the service I received. I literally walked in!
Wednesday 11th January - Jackie, Jenny and I met after work and saw a show! Shows are basically my favourite thing ... ever! This time we were seeing a play, called The Mousetrap. It is an Agatha Christie murder mystery and has been on the West End for 60 years. At the end they ask you keep the whodunit a secret. And people just do. Otherwise the show wouldn't have kept going for this long. In the first half I had zero theories. But as soon as the 2nd half began, all these ideas and possibilities came to mind. It was a really great show.
Thursday 12th January - I'm thinking I went home and packed more stuff. I don't have any record of doing anything else.
Friday 13th - Bek flew in from Uppsala. Ally was going out for her birthday to Koko, however by the time Bek got in, we were both so tired and it was so late that we didn't get there.
Saturday 14th - Breakfast at Mirabel Cafe near the Berg's. It was Me, Bek, Jen, Ally, Matt! All in one place! Breakfast was great! I then had to go and pick up the keys to my new place so I headed off while Bek made her way to Gatwick to fly to Ireland. Later on I met up with the others at The Tower of London where we enjoyed being tourists. We were so tired that night, we just went back to my place and hung out in the lounge room chatting.
Sunday 15th - Ally & Matt arrived at 10am and the 4 of us carted a whole stack of my stuff over to my new place. Not exactly happy I was forced to sign a lease up for a place that clearly wasn't quite finished. I can't believe 4 of us were loaded with stuff and we still didn't move it all over! Where did all this stuff come from? Afterwards we headed to Camden and explored the markets for the day. I loved Camden Markets! Definitely want to take my parents there when they come! We also went to Amy Winehouse's regular pub for a drink, where there is a load of graffiti on the bathroom walls by grieving fans. We were supposed to go to Curtains Up for pub quiz but Jen and I headed there early and were unable to find a table so we headed to my old place, grabbed some more stuff and then (OH YEAH) went to The Swan for dinner with Ally & Matt. No need to clarify earlier question!
Halfway through January! I'm almost caught up... stay tuned... I don't have the energy for January part 2 just now.
My new place!
