I'm getting old

So earlier this week, all was normal when I got into the brightly lit lift at work and there it was, sticking up out of my head, like a homing beacon - my first grey hair! So that's it, aged 34 3/4 I finally admit I am getting old!

Pimlico

There is a website called Meetup where you can join up with different events, whatever takes your mood. I decided to join a group that was walking around Pimlico. It was such a beautiful day and it was nice to just walk around and actually be a little sociable.

A night out

I have been having a bit of a tough time of late. Just so many things happening at once. I have become a bit of a recluse of late so it was really nice to finally go out with my friend last night.

We had drinks, Japanese dinner with two random german guys, then off to see The Grand Budapest Hotel. It was really nice.

War Horse

My friends Po and James came down to London. We went to Burger and Lobster for dinner and then went to watch War Horse in the theatre. It was amazing!

Yvonne visits London

February 21 - 28

Yvonne came to London to visit. It was so nice to see my little sister. Such a shame she could only stay for such a short time.

Work's Christmas do

Yesterday was our works team away day/ Christmas party. It was held at the Ice bar in London.

The day event was basically a lot of PowerPoint slides with a team building exercise in the middle. In the evening we had drinks, dinner and more drinks. We all got to go into the IceBar, which is basically a large freezer where everything is made out of ice, the walls, tables and glasses. You get given a cape and some gloves and they shuff you into the freezer for around 40 mins. By the end you just want to get out.

We were all given Fortnum & Mason champagne as a Christmas present which I think was a very fancy touch!

We then ended up in another bar called Strawberry Moon, where one of my colleagues and I were dancing up a drunken storm. I think I was trying to convince everyone to bodypop. Some were game, but the vast majority were *surprise, surprise* not!

Isabelle Road Christmas party

My friends held an early Christmas dinner party. It was really fun. We were supposed to come in our onesies but all I had was a Christmas jumper. Anyway, dinner and company was great!

The spread! YUMMY!!

Everyone in their onesies

Not quite mulled wine. Think it's made with rum, but still very nice and alcoholic!!

More selfie action!
