YOU-KAY, MEE-KAY, 13-16

Hello my loves!
First of all; Merry Merry Merrryy Christmas! I hope you all had great presents and even greater a time.

Sadly, I didn't get to spend Christmas in England, but it was good to be back home for Christmas, although the weather could do with some working on. We landed Christmas Eve at 630pm and headed to the Ptlck Prty at Mewbs. But those photos will come some time next week, I think. I'll get the UK & Paris ones out of my system first.

These are the first 3 days of the Eurotrip and it was relatively stress free ones (as compared to some other bits of the trip). 'Cept for the 45min hold up cos our luggage was too plentiful for us to fit into the Land Rover properly. And the bit of discord as to plans the night before setting off for Paris.

Oh, and if you're my friend on facebook, you might as well just look at the albums that I just put up. (Yes, I know... me, facebook?! But yea... I succumbed to peer presure :( )

We somehow landed in Picadilly at nightfall before deciding to call it a day.

16TH, LONDON:


Ex--> Cheap: Dim Mak, H&M, and Primark.

We headed to Camden Town. Which on a Saturday is totally crammed with really quite interesting people. I looked absolutely bland in my electro/animal print outfit. And they sell 'shrooms openly. ;)


Eclipse piercing.


Angry Indian and the Hemp Store.








Train back home.

It was a Sunday night, and we left for Paris the next morning at 5am. The boys, or rather Janesh, was of the opinion that it would be a banging idea to go to Herbal, in London, and not sleep till it was time to get on the train. The girls, or rather me, was against that (obviously dumb) idea. Hahahaha, it was like that for most of the trip btw. The diff in opinion that is, with the respective gf&bf being in the middle-y.

In any case, we headed back to Peterborough to put down our shopping and head out for dinner&drinks.

Boathouse, champers.

The boys then headed to Herbal, which turned out not so great (ITYS).





While the girls stayed home to catch a few hours of sleep. Good thing we stayed home cos it was the only time possible to do Wendy's needed photoshoot for some magazine feature. With no lights, no backgrounds, and considerable amounts of alcohol in our system, I think these aren't half bad. Some of my favorites:















Okiedokie. So part 1 is finished, and next up will be the Paris post! Happy Holidays!
