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

I Like That

I'm having a lazy Sunday!  Have spent the morning lying in bed with bf catching up on the soaps we missed during the week.  Have now had a shower and am sitting on the couch watching Doctor Who while he watches the football.


On Friday night I went to Glasgow for dinner with a couple of girls from work.  Yesterday me & bf went to the cinema to see Paul (loved it, really funny) and then for dinner at Zizzi's.  We then came home and watched a dvd of Sweet Sixteen, then had an early night :)


As I say, quiet one today then back to work tomorrow.  I have to be in work for 08:30 then I'm getting the 15:00 train to Aberdeen.  Staying overnight there (in the Hilton, woop woop) and then got stuff in Aberdeen on Tuesday morning.  Travelling back to Edinburgh in the car after that.  Bit fed up with work just now so hopefully a wee trip to Aberdeen will cheer things up a bit!


I get paid roundabout a week from today.  I can't wait, as I have been lusting after some lovely stuff from the flat, most of it from BHS!  I don't often buy stuff from or venture in to BHS, but I wandered in the other day and found some gorgeous stuff...

"Pixie" bedding set

"Bird & Blossom" bedding set

"Overlapping Hearts" cushion

"Word" cushion

"Birds Line" cushion

"Owl" cushion

"Butterfly Appliqué" cushion

"Lyla" cushion

Kirstie Allsop "Adore" cushion

There is also a lovely little kitchen roll holder which I seen the shop but can't find on the website.  It's kind of cream coloured and has a little bird on it :) can't wait to buy some of this stuff, especially the cushions! xx

Happy New Year :)

Hope you all had a good one :) I did, and I had a good new year's day although today I have been in a bit of a mood!

During the day on Friday I met my friends and then that night I spent Hogmanay (as it's called in Scotland) at bf's parent's house with them & him.  It was a nice little quiet one and I toasted the bells with raspberry vodka & lemonade, and kisses & hugs.  We had planned on new year's day to go to my aunt's as we usually do for a nice big dinner, but unfortunately she is ill with the flu!  So instead we went to my other aunt's, which was just as good.  Although there was less drinking involved than there usually is at my other aunt's!  Bf stayed at my mum & dad's house with me last night, which was great until we had a little "hiccup" which has left me in a mood today.  Everything is fine I just find it hard to get out of my little moods.  Something I should work on in 2011! 

Anyway, he was at the football today and I had plans to hit the sales!  Which I did :) I got in to Glasgow pretty early and it was quiet (for a change) so I had the luxury of being able to look round Primark and being able to actually move without having to barge past loads of people!  I bought a few things in there, then headed to H&M, and Boots.  I went to a lot of shops in between but those 3 are the only ones I bought from.  Oh and I finally managed to get myself a bottle green coat that I liked :) this winter I have been living in my green Parka which is great, but I also wanted something a little smarter.

I will be in my parent's house on my own tonight as they are away and my brother has been kicked out, eeeeek.  I think I will spend tonight painting my nails.  I was going to have a bath but not sure if I can be bothered :-/

Tomorrow is my family birthday tea.  My birthday is actually on Wednesday but I will be back in Edinburgh by then so we're doing it tomorrow :) then on Tuesday me & bf will head back to Edinburgh, I am going to the cinema with a friend that night and then it's my birthday! :) and back to work on Thursday.

Uggggggggggggs

To the left I have a wish list, and on that wish list there was "Ugg boots".  But they're not there any more!  On Sunday I became the proud owner of a tall pair of chocolate brown Uggs.  It is love :)

They were an early Christmas present from my aunty :)

I know Uggs are not everyone's cup of tea but I love them and I've never had a real pair before.  As they are brown I am considering buying some brown tights & leggings.  I think it would be a good idea :)

They kinda look like the ones on the left below...

Oh and PS, Happy St Andrew's Day to my fellow Scottish lovelies :)
