Christmas dinner with a gym

While waiting for the waiters to clear the main course plates the stunning realisation that not a single person has cleared all of the carbs off their plate!

Also all the girls are hot and the boys are bench. God help the wanker that spills a drink on one of us tonight!

'tis the season

So December is finally here and the festivities are getting into full swing, my iPod is treating me to Christmas songs, the postman is delivering things for me to wrap, Costa has black forest hot chocolates back in and the decorations are glittering at me from the cupboard ready to be put up. The only thing that isn't being particularly wintery is the weather, it's 21 days until the big day and the temperature is still in double digits! Just worth taking a short interlude here to point out that this is a clear indication of a climate change, shun the non-believers. That being said I'm not begrudging the warmth entirely as this weekend kicks off my party season.
Tomorrow (Saturday 5th) is Mill Road Winter Fair, http://www.millroadwinterfair.org the whole length of the road is shut off from cars and the pavements are lined with stalls and traders, dance groups, musicians and mulled wine or cider if you prefer. There's even a parade! Last year I successfully got into the middle of the parade kind of by accident, luckily I was wearing a pink glittery mask and a light up skirt so I looked like I was supposed to be there.
After the fair it's time to get beautified for the Full Circle Fitness Christmas party, the one day that I don't have to feel guilty about not following the nutrition plan because the head coach chose the restaurant! We are starting at the Bath House, eating at Zizzi and then drinking in the Hidden Rooms. Italian might not be a traditional Christmas dinner choice but damn Zizzi food is tasty, I used to work for Zizzi, I lived off Zizzi for a while, I still drool just thinking about their cheese and onion garlic bread.
So aside from a headache what will Sunday hold? Glad you asked. The boys are hosting their annual fakemas dinner, christmas jumpers will be worn, turkey will be carved with swords, and faces will be slapped with the leftovers. Unfortunately I won't be there for the actual meal as it clashes perfectly with the Cambridge Style Week casting call back for the 2016 shows.

I will be posting photos throughout the weekend of course, but given the amount of prosecco that is bound to be available I doubt I'll have anything intelligent to write along with it. Follow me on instagram to see what happens! https://www.instagram.com/154w/

Irritation's what you need

I wanted to tell you all about the Penhaligon Halloween party and how amazing it smelt and how delicious the mulled wine was...
But instead I waited for an Amazon prime delivery...I thought if you paid £80 a year for this service you were supposed to get the premium version. This is not the case, today I was guaranteed that my package would arrive by 9pm. I spent the entire day in waiting for it. I lost an entire day because I didn't want to miss the delivery that I specifically requested be delivered next day.
Tesco can get delivery pin pointed down to an hour. Even Argos for all their sins text you to tell you when they're about an hour away.
Amazon prime is now in my waste of money column along with stick on nails and coloured hair extensions from the 90s.

On the plus side though, I went for a delicious meal at rockers steak house on mill road instead.

Some days are for relaxing a bit

After yesterday's excitement today was one of those paperwork days, there is always more paperwork. So between stints on my laptop and being nice and helpful around the flat I have now decided it is time to have my hair done again. Photos as soon as I can get an appointment at my favourite place Filippo Russo.
Lovely little surprise in my inbox after dinner, thanks to Penhaligon's I will be going to a cheeky mulled wine and fragrance party on Wednesday.

Happy Monday have a pinot grigio for me!

Casting

Love being a part of Cambridge Style Week again. The casting today went really well met some lovely new faces and a couple of familiar ones from 2015.
Next casting is in a week and so far it looks like 2016 is going to be an epic set of shows.
