wedding wednesday - walls

I can't quite believe this is my penultimate Wedding Wednesday post! Eep!
On Sunday we went to our local church to hear our Banns read for the third & final time. After the service (where thankfully no one made a peep!) we got out Banns certificate which now means we're all set to get married. Wahoo! Our new parish church is really pretty & the people seem lovely but I'm so glad we're getting married in my old Parish church around the people I grew up with. I always dreamed I'd walk down that aisle with dad & no other (aisle that is, not dad!).
We made sure we kept this weekend coming free so we could have lie ins & relax before it all goes crazy (in a good way!). I think after the wedding we're really going to appreciate our down time without worrying we should be tweaking that poster or triple checking check lists. Talking of relaxing we'd kind of forgotten about our Honeymoon with all the madness of planning the wedding so when we sat there last week thinking "this time next Saturday I'll be walking down the aisle/eating cake/dancing/drunk" we suddenly remembered that the week after that we'd be on our Honeymoon & chilled out. We can't wait! It's like a little added bonus to look forward to after the big day & then after that we can start planning Japan! Huzzah!
Yesterday it was my Birthday. Normally I'm like a little kid getting all overly excited but I'd kind of forgotten about it this year (not that there's anything else I'm looking forward to!). It was lovely to have a day off. I'd planned on doing loads of wedding stuff but it turned out my mate Scary would be staying over & so we ended up having a lovely day together before having dinner with Adam. In a way it was nice to have the distraction of not planning & I could just slob out in front of Jeremy Kyle with a cuppa. Rock n Roll!
As you'll see in this post Chris Barber likes walls! They're definitely his thing! See his website HERE if you've still not visited it yet.
I'm going to end my post with this picture, it's my all time favourite & I can't believe I'm marrying this man in 10days time! Yay!

Ladies what #ldnlunch

Image
After a few deep breaths I plucked up the courage to walk into the Jetlag bar in Fitzrovia & meet some fellow blogging lovelies. I'd first heard about Ldnlunch On Eloise's blog . I'd always wanted to go to a blogger meet so I put my name down straight away. I was a bit nervous when I realised there were about 40 other girls going who's blogs were mainly about fashion, whereas mine is just random ramblings from inside my brain box but decided I'd still go seeing as I had nothing to lose! I arrived expecting to be early but there were already lots of people sitting down for drinks & food so I grabbed a drink & perched on a pooffe. I just ordered a bowl of chips (how adventurous!) but I did pick off the plates around me (yoink! Thanks Lois! ). There were mixed responses to the rather tentacle-y calamari (I have some hilarious snaps of Jazzy eating the tentacles but I'm here to make friends not enemies so those will be shared between the 2 of us &am

Londoners pt1

Image
For Chrimbo Adam gave me a book called "Londoners. The days & nights of London now - as told by those who love it, hate it, live it, left it & long for it" by Craig Taylor. After reading the introduction & before reading any more I decided I'd think about what London & being a Londoner means to me. Even though I picked out bullet points I still got a bit carried away so I'll spread it over a few posts so here goes part 1, I'll start with the one thing that I think of straight away when someone says London to me: ~ the tube is a huge part of London life. It's about sitting on a train for an hour & not knowing what any one's face looks like only their shoes, panic attacks when the train gets stuck in a tunnel without explanation, keeping left, standing on the right spot on a platform so you'll be in front of the doors when they open & also so when you get off you'll be at the exit to the station - even if that exit says no ent

Happy 30th Adam!

Image
Wow what an eventful weekend! Friday was Adam's 30th so we both took the day off work to celebrate together. After sleeping in till 10am Adam finally woke me up asking when I was going to emerge & celebrate his birthday with him - Yoink! So much for the breakfast in bed I had planned. We started the day off as all birthdays should be celebrated - with a trip to Asda! After getting the boring chores out the way we headed to Winter Wonderland (via the Barber) for our annual wander around with a mulled wine in one hand & a Bratwurst in the other all polished off with a pretzel. We stopped off at the Carousel bar to watch the world go by (literally! The whole bar rotates really slowly) & have another mulled wine while putting the world to rights before heading off for dinner in Hammersmith. The first of many surprises for Adam were tickets to Steve Merchant's 'Hello Ladies' tour at the Apollo which was really good fun. We got there quite early so thought we&#
