The past 6 weeks or so have been so crazy for me that I haven’t had a chance to sit at my laptop and write about all the exciting things!

I have been to London twice, once with Brian as part of his birthday present and the second for my first ever work trip to the Airline Retail Conference.

My trip with Brian was great fun, we both love London but had never been together so I booked cheapy Ryanair flights and with a little help from Lastminute.com booked us into The Cumberland Hotel, Marble Arch.  The hotel has ultra modern decór and incredibly helpful staff. The location just off Oxford St is fantastic too.

After we settled in the hotel we met friends for some lunchies in Camden, we went to Haché, for some amazing burgers, I thoroughly recommend “Le Mexican”.

After stuffing our faces we strolled along Camden, hadn’t been there in years but not much has changed. My only purchase in Camden was flat pink shoes from Office.

We did bump into Kate Walsh  & Philip Taylor from this years UK Apprentice, they were stopped taking photos with others so I said why not!?

We spent the night drinking around Leicester Square, had a great night, popped into Waxy O’Connors and ended the night classily in KFC! LOL!

On the Sunday we got up early and hit Oxford Street, surprised to see that most of the shops weren’t open till 11.30am. We found a lovely spot for brekkie and then waited for Selfridges to open, I am in love with that shop, I could happily spend the day there! I got my Mac Mineral Foundation so I was happy. I also purchased a pair of “jeggings” from Next, a black top with frills in H&M sale for £5 (bargain!).

We hit the Mac Shop, Regent Street where Brian purchased an iPhone 3G Dock & I got a InCase Slider in pink for my non exsistant iPhone!

We had lunch in Covent Garden and enjoyed the street performers & made our way back to the hotel and made our return journey.

I love London but this visit was far too short but very sweet
