New Year's Day Parade
We had a lazy morning today, after waking up oddly refreshed, before heading in to town to see the New Year's Day parade along Piccadilly. It was strangely American. Tom bought me an awesome red s...

Roseleaf
I've been decluttering my room and it's starting to look very neat and tidy. I can't believe how many boxes I've thrown out. Our last day back in Scotland was spent with my parents in Edinburgh. W...

Still Jenny From The Loch
Jenny was back from Japan, so we met up with her in Edinbrugh for a day of fun and cock-of-tails. She told us lots of stories about Japan, which has convinced us to go and visit at some point next ...

Pittenweem
Today we went through to Pittenweem with Tom’s parents. The streets were so icy and slippery so everyone was walking on the beach instead. We had lunch and hazelnut hot chocolate at the Cocoa Tre...

Knitty Kitty
I seem to craft so much faster when it’s cold outside. This week I finished my patchwork quilt, which I had started back in the summer. I had the bulk of the work finished in two days and then left...

Mermaid Ahoy!
Today was the day we got the mermaid in our LEGO advent calendar. Our nautical scene is almost complete though I'm not sure what it has to do with Christmas.

Movember
Tom’s boss Mal was hosted an evening at the office tonight, where he showed us the video of Hugh Grant shaving off his moustache. It was really funny.

Taylor Taylor
This morning we had breakfast at Fifteen. I highly recommend scrambled eggs & mushroom on toast with a side of baked beans and a tasty smoothie. Afterwards I had a haircut at Taylor Taylor. T...

Christmas Tree
Tonight we picked up this year's Christmas tree from Clifton Nurseries. We thought we had picked a similar size to last year but it turned out to be 2 foot taller and much heavier. Luckily a nice b...

Twilight
Tonight we went to see Twilight. I still can’t make my mind up about the film, so Lynz has lent me her book of it to read. It was an 11.30pm screening, so we had the whole cinema to ourselves, whi...

The LEAP ANYWHERE office were sent 1,500 bars of Green & Blacks chocolate, so Tom came home from work with a big box of them.
