A DAY TRIP TO LONDON

Going to London is nothing new, i go quite a few times a year to see friends and attend events for my blog but it's rare i get to take time out to be a 'propa' tourist. I was gifted some tickets for Viva Forever and i thought it would be really nice to go with Mumma Price and spend the day together. I had planned to take my camera and get happy snappy but of course i left my memory card in my laptop, opps. After a having a panic about tickets (my fault entirely after leaving my bank card in my Dads car) we hopped on a train at our local station and an hour and half later we were at Kings Cross station where i finally got to see Platform 9 3/4. My Mum and Dad are originally from London but moved to Leicestershire just before i was born so it was really nice to see where my Mum used to work when she was my age (which was literally right next to Piccadilly Theatre) and where she used to go for her lunch  in a cafe just a round the corner. We headed to Carnaby street as i wanted to pay a visit to Monki (left with nothing!) and spent money we didn't have in Liberty. Dinner was at Byron burger (thanks Gemma!) and then a quick drink before the show itself which by the way was so cheesy it was sometimes embarrassing but fantastic none the less! Home at 1.30am and then back to work the next day. It was such a lovely day and it's made me even more (if that's possible) excited for New York in 4 weeks!

  7. I do love having a run around London. Always try and visit somewhere new when I'm there. Only live about 45 mins away so it's fab getting the train in and seeing it, then escaping before I get too stressed.

  24. Great photos, it sounds like you had a lovely time! Just to let you know your blog takes a while to load and I think it's the background advertising, it's done it for me on a couple of other blogs with the same adverts. It might just be me though! xx
