don’t forget your toothbrush…
Without wishing to sound churlish, I have been relieved at last to have a much-needed quiet and peaceful week, with just a carefully timed couple of enjoyably leisurely meetings to keep the meter running!
I have been busy organising myself for my Nottingham visit as well as making arrangements for the next London dash and another brief trip to Edinburgh at the start of October (regular readers may remember my intent to return following my last brief stay in March, although this time I have been fortunate indeed to find some far more pleasant and desirable lodgings to entertain in, although I will admit that the choice is still proving to be a bit much and I have not yet decided exactly which ones yet).
The majority of yesterday was spent endlessly poring over train times and hotel details has left me with a predictably splitting headache, although I suspect the accompanying bottle of Rioja is at least partly responsible for both this and the unpleasant complication upon waking of a mouth like the inside of a Bombay minicab.
Naturally I am now fully recovered and looking forward to a busy week with the gentlemen of Nottingham – I will be home on Saturday evening and available from Sunday for a week, before hurtling back to London in order to collect this year’s acquisition from the RA Summer Exhibition (a small and unassuming painting which I was bewitched by, and have been looking forward to rehoming for seemingly months now). The itinerary upon this occasion will hopefully be including a trip on the London Eye too following a kind recommendation – any would-be consorts please do email!
The vigilant will have noticed that I am on holiday from September the 13th – 20th; I am very much looking forward to a week of unadulterated laziness, pampering and fuss at a luxury health spa not too far away! I have never before visited one of these, but suffice to say I will doubtless return buffed, massaged, polished and pummelled into a glorious and fragrant vision of tactile womanliness, and aim to extend this for as long as possible by cleaning my face properly, drinking gallons of water, always wearing my Marigolds when dishwashing and not staying up until 3am.
It should also prove to be a suitable time to add to the new pictures – as you may have seen (and including the above image, which I reproduce here without shame as it is one of my new favourites) there are a few recent additions to the site – I had promised I would be refreshing it regularly! The popularity of my outdoor pics has tempted me to arrange more, hopefully before the weather turns well, worse, and the thought of another alfresco meeting is indeed enticing – even the prospect of summer rain isn’t so appalling and I do have a pretty floral cagoule if required, although it would probably be prudent to leave it out of the photographs. I will be preparing a completely new Gallery section in time for Christmas – any suggestions please get in touch!
