Hiiiiiiiiii!
I spent the night in Aberdeen last night. I went to work as usual in the morning, then I caught the 3pm train from Edinburgh to Aberdeen. It was a long journey but it wasn't too bad... luckily nobody sat next to me for the whole journey :)
Once I got to Aberdeen it was dark and freezing. It was about half 5 in the evening. I got off the train and got in the queue for a taxi. £11.50 it cost me from the station to the hotel! Thankfully I can claim it back. I stayed at the Hilton Treetops. It looked impressive from the outside, and the reception area was lovely, but the rooms were nothing special at all. I'd go as far as to say that the rooms at the Premier Inn are faaaaaaaaaaaar nicer and better. And bigger. Plus I didn't even get a double bed, it was 2 single beds that I couldn't push together. Not too bad for me.... I'm quite a small person, but I was in my boss's room briefly and his room was the same. Thought they might of been able to sort him out at least. Anyway, he (my boss) wasn't arriving til about half 8 so I had a few hours to myself. I went down at got dinner. It was weird sitting in the hotel restaurant eating on my own. Food was quite nice. After my boss got there and we sorted everything out, it was about 9pm. I ran myself a gorgeous bath and sat in the lovely bubbles reading Glamour while listening to my iTunes. After that I had a shower n all that, got ready n went to bed.
This morning was a bit crazy, trying to get my manager to fax something through to the hotel to us from Edinburgh. After that headed off to the event (which is why we were in Aberdeen in the first place). My boss did his thing while I sat at the back whispering and emailing. Then we were off! On the road back to Edinburgh in the car. We got back about 13:30 and it was straight back to work. After the catch up chats and lunch. Didn't get finished til about 7pm though, so I'm shattered tonight.
I'm currently watching When Harry Met Sally and I'm hoping it finishes soon coz t's a bit boring to be honest. Do you like it? xx
Hey hey hey :) I'm so excited it's getting so close to Christmas :-D
Not last weekend but the weekend before, I went to Glasgow from Friday til Sunday. Friday was a quiet day at work, so I travelled in the morning from Edinburgh to our Glasgow office, and worked there for the day. I took a loooooooong lunch, during which I met my friend for a munch and then left her and went shopping! I have an obsession with nail polish, and as I had bare nails that day and didn't bring any through with me to Glasgow, felt that I Had to buy some. Have you seen the new Accessorize make up? Well I'm not sure about the rest of it but the nail polishes are lovely. I bought 4 of them, and also a Barry M - Dusky Mauve and bottom/top coat. I bought Accessorize Molten Copper-
Mermaid
Pink Spice
and.... Idol
I am absolutely loving them. I'm loving Barry M's Dusky Mauve too but I'm sure you've already seen that.
I was going out on Friday night but unfortunately I had to stay in the office til 5pm. The good thing about that though, was that mostly everyone left around 4pm, leaving me to sneakily paint my nails in the office while it was quiet! ;) I went out with my friends that night and had a great time.
On the Saturday, I started my Christmas shopping. I got my mum & dad's from Molton Brown, and got bf's from Hugo Boss. I then met my friends again for a couple of drinks but headed home after a couple with my heavy bags. That night I started to feel ill, and by the time Sunday came round I was dying with the worst cold ever! My Nana came to collect me and we went to my Aunt's birthday tea. I was due to go n see Frankie Boyle with my friend that night but I gave it a miss as I felt so ill. I got the train back to Edinburgh and my lovely friend Steven came and picked me up at the station and dropped me off at my flat :)
I was off work til Thursday and ended up going to the doctor where I was told the cold had brought my asthma back and so I now have an inhaler for the next wee while!
Me & bf took a half day on Friday there and went to Glasgow. The weather was bad but we got through fine. We had dinner at his parent's house and stayed over. On Saturday I got my hair done, then me & bf went to the cinema & for dinner. Stayed over at his parent's again on Saturday night then went home to Edinburgh on Sunday. Lucky we left early coz after that the weather went mental!
And so now I am in the middle of another boring week at work! It has been quiet due to the weather, which means I've had the chance to get right in to my Christmas shopping :) still got quite a bit to go though. Can't wait to get it finished :) xx
PS. I think I may have repeated myself in this post and the one before that, but hey! :) x
