Spring!

Ohhh! I love this time of year! All the leaves are coming out, green everywhere! The lilacs are even out already!!! Fab! Still hot and sunny too! Woohhh! Not that we're going out today, Col's doing some refresher programming, and I'm hunting for flats... Have to move by the 9th, and out of the 6 flats we liked, 4 have gone already... Bit scary! We might end up without somewhere to move to!

Went to Finsbury Park and checked out the posh looking place (will view inside on Wednesday) and I'm not sure about the area. Bit dodgy me thinks!

 

Had a cool day yesterday, stopped off at Alexandra Palace and went up to the top of the hill, fab views and lovely in the sun. Checked out the TV house as well, first ever TV broadcast from there or something (was also a POW camp in the 2nd world war) - and a Dr Who episode is set there too : )

 

Col cooked a fab Indian last night, and Sharon & Trev came around. Yum! So nice! Lots of chatting, and we watched the Dr too of course. Darlek people.... Say no more! Not sure about it at the moment though, think I'm missing Rose and her family. The new assistant, Martha, has no storyline as such yet, not network. But I'm sure we'll get there soon! Did I say that John Simm will be in episode 8?! Should be cool!

 

OK need to get back to flat hunting!

 

PS. Spoke to Karro Thursday night... She's away this weekend - her new man (Jens) took her away - to Rome! As as surprise! How sweet isn't that!??! She knew nothing, her flatmate told me : ) Other news on the Karro front - she and Amanda have to move out of the flat in June as Mikael's girlfriend is moving in. Good and bad I suppose!

Easter Feast and Sunburnt!

Friday - coolest day of the year - Cornish feast in Covent Garden

 

Saturday - drove to Col's Mum's in the afternoon after Col having a playdate at our house with brother Keith. I made little pastry cases filled with tasty chilli veggie mince, mmm! Made a 'nana cake too : ) Had a looovely chat with Emsen too, miss her sooo! Her and Ankis were supposed to come over in May, but they won't now...! Noooo!

Had looooads of food at Sharon and Trev's yum! (Just made it to their house in time for Dr Who!) What a feast! Hung out with them and stayed the night.

 

Sunday - sat in the garden and had brekkie, mm! So sunny and hot! Headed to Walkern for 12, got there, they had all buggered off to the pub so we played with little puppy Charlie for a while! He's so cute! A little 7 week old border collie pub! He tries to chew everything though! So lovable but god, hard work! Don't think I could ever have one! It's like the same with kids, lovely to play with, but then you give them back!

Chris and his gal Rachel came to Col's Dad's and we decided to head off to the pub with them to find the clan. And they were there, taking in the sunshine and getting toxified! Heheh! Headed back to the house, baked in the sun whilst becoming toxified ourselves (well Col had to drive!)

Diane and Ewan were there too, cool to chat to them! Got myself some veggie sausages as there's no room for me at the Brent meat feasts! But at least I was prepared and Ewan and Chris were very careful with my food which was nice of them.

Got lovely sunburn on my chest, and then we headed off back to see Col's Nan and have a bit of a rest before the drive back home. Started watching a bit of the story about Joanna or whatever her name was, the girl who travelled in Oz in a camper van and her boyfriend got murdered somewhere in the outback.. Freaked me out a little. I know the story well, but never really thought much about it... Us and our camper van... Little scary!

Di+ Ewan has sold their house and are moving to an old farm near Pterborough! Cool! Swimming pool and a forest on their land! Bit of a change! Will have some great weekends there I'm sure!

 

Monday - stayed in bed for a change, no rush to get up! Done lots of house hunting! Wooh! Exciting! Will hand in our notice today! 1 month to go! Can't wait! Saw another beauty, but it's in Dalston (dodgy bit) such a shame! Oh well! Gonna head off out into the lovely weather in a little bit! Mmmm! Lunch first though!

 

Speak soon people!

Good Friday

Oh! What a day!!! So hot and sunny! Like proper hot! Like ouch I'm burning hot! Cool!

Firstly we went to check out a flat in Angel, cool location but I think a no no. Col bought himself a pair of specs, which was needed as he's been wearing my ones from Topshop, and I'd like them back please!

Headed off to Covent Garden after that, we had a nice coffee and sun in mind, but I just remembered the lovely Cove Bar, so it was pasties and beer/cider all around! Sat up on their balcony and baked in the sun for a while too! Completely fantastic! Oh oh oh!

Stopped off in Camden for some egg shopping then home! Great great great! So happy!

Gonna go and make a banana cake now, mmm!

 

Tomorrow is "Keith coming around day", oh! Hope it goes well! Col and him are gonna play games I think, and I need to make some stuff to bring to the BBQ we're going to on Sunday. Need to go and shop for some veggie sausages too, and maybe some corn on the cob, mmm!

Thought I'd make some Argentinian style pasties too... Not sure yet though! Must bring veggie food! Convert people! HEhhe!

Off to Col's Mum's tomorrow too, and we can drive there now! Col has fixed the car and it's even legal now! Coool!!!

 

Oh, Col's Dad's family have bought a border collie puppy called Charlie!!! Can't wait to play with him!!!! Gonna be the cutest!

 

Oh, Sez and Perry are back from Oz on Sunday morning too, can't wait to catch up with them.

 

Really missing Sweden too, thinking of getting Karro into buying a flat there with me - at least I'll have something to move back to then eventually... As it's going over here, I think the same will happen (and is happening in Sweden) - property is the way to invest! Just one thing - can you make any money on renting out flats in Sweden? Are you allowed? Hm! Need to investigate! We'll need somewhere to move to one day won't we!!!

 

Found "Gullefjun" on YouTube, think Col almost died! I think it's soooo cute!
