Saturday Night

Today, I spent most of my time in my former place of employment, chatting to the girls (who are fabulous) and buying eyeshadow I certainly did not need...but oh yes Ladies and Gentlemen, my life is now far more complete now I have it.

I popped into M & S for some more...pants...shall we say? While my underwear is currently wearable, with my lack of exercise and comfort eating it is, shall we say...stretching beyond it's comfort zone. And while I am exercising again and hopefully will be a lot lighter, I figured new pants would be more comfortable and give me more impetus.

By the time I headed home, my back was aching, I was pissed off with shoppers and I was thirsty. I was lazy, took a bus and oh look, it stops right outside a pub. The first pint of cider was nectar. The pub wasn't busy so I chatted to the bar staff and the local crime lord. I ordered some chips to go with the alcohol. Then I saw they did mulled wine. Well dear readers, what is a girl to do? Sad bitch that I am, I stayed on for 3 glasses of mulled wine and a J2O (orange and passion fruit if you must know). I've set the world to rights, chatted up the bar staff and come up with a artistic project which would encorporate the local business community. It has been a good night out.

Even if I am off to bed before 22:00 hrs.

    The trouble with shop mirrors is they make you look wider. It sounded a good day out though. Just do not forget alcohol and calories ;-)

  2. vetnurse ~ It's not just you that happens too...I try very few clothes on in the shop now. I take it home, try it on and take it back if necessary.

    As dinner was a bowl of chips...I'm counting yesterday as a slip.

    Sounds like time well spent and a good night out!

    My saturday night involved lying on the settee, eating chocolate watching some films...which wasn't that different to my Friday night or saturday day! So I might be making a trip to M&S soon for bigger pants too!

  5. So good you have a pub where you can just walk in and feel comfortable talking with the bar staff.
    I though they only existed in Corrie and East Enders.

  6. NM ~ weekend chockies om nom nom.

    B*E*G ~ trifle, I lurve trifle. I bet you didn't save me some.

    kaz ~ yep. My local is trendy and pretentious. Normally I go with friends and we huddle outside under the patio heaters for the smokers. A few days before xmas I fled the shopping and took refuge in a pint of cider and realised the bar staff were personable. Last night proved it wasn't a fluke.
