The Old Lady

Helen and her little life in London

Tuesday, August 31, 2004

Long weekend over

It was very busy! It was Matt's 30th on friday night so we went out for some drinks and dinner. It really did persuade me that i should stop drinking though as I was pretty loud and horrible and I am embarrassed to think about it as I usually pride myself on being quiet and a person with integrity! Quite embarrassing.....Poor old Richard who bore the brunt of my ugliness. He seemed OK about it but I kind of regret that i had anything to drink at all to be honest....

The wedding on saturday was lovely. The bride looked amazing and my reading seemed to go OK so that is what is important ! I was really quite nervous but people said they couldnt really tell (which was good!). The weather held out for them - there was even some sunshine! And everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves which is the important thing. The couple seemed particularly happy which was lovely to see. I would like to point out that I drove back to the b&b after the wedding so barely drank anything at all....

Sunday we drove back to London (having nearly had to drive back sat night after the b&b lady mis-calculated how many rooms 2 couples would need and had provided us with only one!). She did give us lots of money off which showed her guilt- but she never admitted it! We wont be staying there again! We had lunch with my parents and then drove back home with the intention of doing lots of packing. Instead we chilled and then did the packing and exciting things on monday. I actually cooked a new recipe which i really enjoyed- i am realising just how much i do enjoy spending time in the kitchen!

And I also saw my friend who got me into blogging who has been living in Japan but who was home for a couple of weeks. I hadnt seen her in at least 12 years so it was lovely! She brought her gorgeous daughter with her and I really enjoyed catching up.
