Scribbles

In the last couple of weeks I've been to see Rolo Tomassi, ate freshly made sushi at a Japanese restaurant, helped my friends move house, came 6th in a pub quiz and saw The Great Gatsby.

I've also been scribbling a bit at work for some children's posters. These are some initial sketches of ideas...

And I'm a frequent visitor of the tearoom next door!

This is what I wore to Rolo Tomassi. It was at the Joiners in Southampton and such a perfect evening. A bunch of us road-tripped up, drank ciders, met old friends from my schooldays and listened to good music.

Weekend forever

This weekend has been about friends, dinner, rum, walks at the seaside, card-games, music, wine, scrabble and films. This is how all weekends should be.

May

The Bank Holiday weekend was lovely. Full of sunshine, friends, cake, cider, frisbee and pie. And I managed to record none of it apart from a minuscule amount of snapshots on my phone. So here they are...

I met my dad and sister for a quick bit of tea and cake in the newly opened vintage tearoom next door to my flat. It was AMAZING. Chocolate and strawberry is the best combination.

A giant daisy-chain me and my friend made. We draped it around a bench. Magical, non?

I also managed to get my hands on a few vintage bits and bobs, including this cute little mug and two decanters.

And finally, some terrible photos of an outfit, including a new skirt I picked up on Monday. About 30 seconds after these photos were taken, I decided to empty my bin and a GIANT spider crawled out. NO, just no.

Shirt - France (no recollection of what the shop was called)

I hope everyone else had a wonderful weekend!

Inner City Pressure

I've been spending most of this week working then going straight out in the sun for picnics, frisbee and cider.
It was my lovely friend Sophie's Birthday last week so I drew her a card of the beautifully handsome Brett and Jermaine from Flight of the Conchords.

Work

I work in the marketing department of a land-based college in Dorset. Set in the house and grounds of an old 17th century stately home, it's an absolutely beautiful place to work. 

Here's a couple of snapshots from the other day.

HOW cute are these goslings?? It's baby animals galore here at the moment.
