Post 4

We finally have a dry day in London after what has felt like endless rain. I was half expecting Noah to roll out the ark.

We have had a busy few weeks. In case you have been living in a cave and hadn't heard, England won the World Cup. Yup, that's right, England's rugby heroes are now World Champions. Full credit to them though, it was a great game and they deserved to win. With the help of Brad and Tim I managed one small triumph for New Zealand and beat all my Pommy workmates to win our World Cup Dreamteam mini league. Result.

Andy has been very busy at work finalising budgets but we have managed a few nights out with friends and also had last Friday off work. We went out for brunch in South Kensington then went to the Natural History Museum which was very interesting. There was even a Moa! We then went to the V & A which was filled with lots of things. I liked the Japanese room and Andy was quite taken with the Casts room. After looking at old things that we couldn't buy, Andy uttered the words which every girl dreams of hearing.....'I need shopping therapy'. Once I had recovered from my shock we headed off to Harrods. It was the first time we had been there and it didn't disappoint. It was fab. Everything was fab. I loved all of it, the jewellery, the food, the clothes, the make up (oh the make up) and the shoes. Andy even voluntarily sought out the Jimmy Choo shoes. After a blissful few hours (for me anyway) we headed to Wimbledon for the movies and saw Love Actually which was very good actually. A lovely movie which I thoroughly recommend to anyone.

This week, we went out for dinner with Lydia and Neil on Monday. Last night (Wednesday) we went to a Brits pre show thing at Clapham Grand with Paul and Rachel. Muse, the Sugababes and Big Brovas did a couple of songs each and it was a fun night. It is getting televised at a later date but we weren't on camera as we were sitting up in the balcony on a comfy sofa rather than screaming at the front. Must be getting old.

On the website front, we have added some photos of me and young Oliver in Bournemouth. Ol's website has also been added to our list of links.
