an eggless omlette?!

the meals here get better! got up this morning quite hungry and so ordered an omlette with cheese forgetting that pushkar has no egg! so i was presented with this eggless omlette! i wouldnt recommend it by the way!

well the monsoon has now hit rajasthan. its not too bad at the moment. its rained most of today but just a drizzle (its spitting!), so no torrents of water flowing down the streets - YET! hopefully our journey to jaipur tomorrow will go ok, i dont fancy spending hours on a hot and stuffy bus cos the roads flooded!

done sooo much shopping here! its great! so cheap too! not looking forward to packing tonight though cos my bag was full when i left banaglore! so far on my travels ive left something at each hotel to make room for something new!! its been books, toiletries, trousers that were a bit minging anyway and some writing paper! every little extra bit of space helps! ill definately be leaving at least one book here, maybe even more! oops! hehe the shopaholic has returned! argh!

well ive just about dried off from wandering round pushkar today, but we are popping out for dinner later on cos weve eaten at the hotel 2 nights in a row due to the rain and each time its taken about an hour to make some really basic meals! (my omlette took 40min this morning!!) so we are going to venture further afield!

cant believe ive got just over 2weeks left in india. noooo! looking forward to popping back to bangalore to see everyone before i leave though! Part-ay methinks!!!!

T-minus 6months / 184days!

Image
Eeep! 6months today I'll be just about to walk down the aisle to see the man I'm going to marry! AAAAARRRRGGGHHH!I'm so ridiculously excited I'm not sure I can bottle it up! Valentines day marked 200 days till our wedding & mum made us a countdown using tape measures measuring 100cm each. The plan was to cut off a cm each day as the countdown but she'd included little charms all down them of bags, shoes, guitars, etc & we didn't want to ruin it so we're colouring it in with a Sharpie instead! She's the best! :) thanks mum! Last night after work Adam & I met up at Waterloo to head home & it was all going as planned till we stopped at one station for about 20mins cos of a backlog due to a part suspension. There was nothing we could do to get on another line so we sat & waited, the train eventually left but then sat at the next station (Swiss Cottage) for another 20min & they didn't know when they'd set off again. We knew th...

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...

#TowerPoppies

Image
Last September I was lucky enough to get the chance to take part in the "Blood Swept Lands & Seas of Red" at the Tower of London.... Those of you who are regular readers will know I love helping out the Royal British Legion & this was a chance to be part of something awesome! "Blood Swept Lands & Seas of Red" was to mark the centenary of the outbreak of WW1, in total there were 888,246 ceramic poppies (1 to represent every British / Colonial serviceman killed) & the last one was planted on Remembrance Day. If you want to find out more & see a video about the poppies being made click HERE . Early one Saturday morning I set off to the Tower of London & joined another 120 people for a 3hour shift. The aim was to plant 5000 poppies to keep on track for the 11th November but someone ended up opening an extra palette & we planted 6000 instead! Our team was lead by a Beefeater's daughter who actually lived in the Tower - such an in...
