Let the celebrations commence!



My Saturday passed very quietly indeed. Whilst Nick slept for most of the day, I pootled around getting ready for the proper birthday celebrations.  Along with a spot of shopping there was a bit of solo brunching to be done, and a quick wander around the local art gallery to fill the time.
            When Nick finally emerged we headed down to the cricket club to meet up with Liv for a glass of pimms on the terrace whilst we watched Matt play cricket, and then we headed back to theirs for dinner and drinks with a couple of others. It was a low key Saturday, and very much needed.
            Sunday on the other hand, Sunday was not very sedate at all! I woke up early to clean the flat and get ready for Kev and Jules who were due to arrive with us at 11am for pre-brunch espresso martinis. There followed a day of drinking and birthday celebrations, with brunch at Cataluña, bubbles in the sun, and even more drinks afterwards when they came back to our flat to pass the rest of the afternoon.


Brunches are always way too excessive, and boarded on the disgusting (that’s apparently the whole point), but they are also great fun. The four of us tried out a bit of all the best foods, we had a couple of cocktails, and we spent the afternoon dancing the time away with our waiter...as you do.
            Thank goodness I had the day off on Monday!
