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
Wow where did the last 6months go?! So far 2018 has been an ace one... not stopped as usual... but loved it all the same! At the end of June Adam and I went to Russia with two friends... We went to Moscow and St Petersburg and we loved it. I knew it would be great but it was just so much nicer, friendlier and brighter than expected... check it out! late night flights... early morning landings... Greatest Showman binges (watched it 4 times in total - how amazing is this film?!)... lazy sleep breakfast... sunny morning walks... 40 winks on a park bench (due to 28hours of being awake!)... finally being able to check into our holiday apartment... another 40winks / 2hours kip... supermarket explorations... Bolshoi sightseeing... marvelous metro stations... jazzy shopping centers... twinkly lights everywhere... red square at night... Day 2... wonderfully magical markets... pug cushion purchases... vodka for lunch... P&S anniversary dinner... Russian pug... stunnin
back in banaglore again! pondicherry was so nice, very hot though, really muggy, *yuck!* our journey there was fine, there was no hindi movie playing thankfully and the reclinng chairs went back quite a way and i managed to sleep loads. (this isnt hard for me as most of you will know! i can sleep anywhere!) when we arrived in pondy at 5:30am we went to book our return tickets for the sunday night after being promised "100%'" that there would be places. we were told that all the coach companies were full so we'd have to return either that night or monday. we trudged our way round about 5 companies all saying no untill the last one said we could have 2 seats but they would be behind the driver, in his cabin, on a bench! we said yes cos we needed to get back and also we could have proper seats if anyone cancelled. anyway, we then found a really nice hotel and at only rs480 (6 quid i think! wow that just suprised me!!) a night it was a bargain! pondy streets
