30.03.05Doves gig @ Brixton Academy with The Magic Numbers (fabulous) as opening act. It was a brilliant gig - I've come to expect nothing less of the Doves, although upon leaving the venue I was beginning to think that I've become too old for gigs. Top tracks - Black and White Town, Snowden, and The Cedar Room.
31.03.05
Million Dollar Baby @ Vue Cinema in Leicester Square. Bloody hell was it ever brilliant. I went in with no expectations at all and walked out speechless with tears in my eyes. A must see - it blew both me and D away.
02.04.05
Wine tasting @ Vinopolis. We slept in for a good part of the day and decided that we wanted to do something different that evening. So Vinopolis it was. We even attended a session called 'How To Taste Wine' which touched upon using all of the senses to taste wine. We tried five wines each, including four premium wines (loooovely), and absinthe. I wasn't a big fan of the absinthe, but I've got to say that the Riesling Eiswein was heavenly. Dinner at Fish! in Borough Market just off of the River.
03.04.05
Procrastination @ Selfridges. Did we actually need to purchase anything? Absolutely not. But sitting by the window in Salt Beef whilst people watching was lovely. One of my dream cars (a forest green Aston Martin DB7) drove by.
05.04.05
Project meeting @ the Department. My personal deadline for my thesis is a week tomorrow. I can do it. Really.
The weather is shite here; we literally had all four seasons in a day, including a bout of hail, thunder and lightning, and blinding sunshine. I have another project meeting tomorrow, and am dreading the afternoon when I'll have to say a temporary goodbye to my boyfriend who is visiting his father in Wales for the weekend. 'See you later' is much more comforting, I think.
