On Thursday night – before cooking a midnight pasta, that is – I had been at my farewell drinks from CQS. It was a pretty amazing night – so many people came along to help celebrate! I felt a little bad that I didn’t get to talk to everyone there but I’m pretty sure everyone had a decent time regardless. Given that I didn’t get home until midnight, I know that I sure did.
Friday was my last day at work, so as you can guess it was extremely busy. Everyone had thrown in some money to get me an amazingly generous gift voucher for Amazon. I was very touched! I’ve resolved to spend it on something ridiculously impractical, like a pair of Ugg Boots for Men. Classy.
Saturday we were overdue for a sleep-in, and the rain outside was encouragement to do so. Thankfully, the weather cleared up in the afternoon as I was booked in to go ice-skating at the Natural History Museum with Nick, Suzie, Eva, and Alex, and at £16 for a one-hour session (yes, really!) we were going even if there was thunder and lightening.
Saturday night we enjoyed an amazing three course dinner at Pat’s house, where everything was home cooked and everything tasted amazing. As often happens, I got way too caught up in eating the food to take any photos, so check out Pat’s site for the full scoop.
Sunday we were given the best weather that we’ve seen in weeks – gorgeous blue skies and an amazingly warm seven degrees! Kristy made the most of it by coming down with a cold and lying under a doona on the couch; I, on the other hand, hit the driving range with Aubain and Oscar!
It was so refreshing to be outdoors without wearing 17 layers of clothing; fingers crossed that the weather keeps up like this!

What do you mean ‘Kristy came down with a cold’ – Kristy has had that darn cold for months! Well at least one month… get better soon! xo
it got much worse! fever, neck ache, fatigue. I was under a blankie for two days, but back to the office today.
So it just seems to fluctuate in its intensity… time to kick it for good!!
