Why would I make this photo up and How could I? Am I an iron forger. Nope. would I stage such a picture, Nope, its not funny, I love the gays! So yes they did have a memorial for the homosexuals at the concentration camp. I think it was put after the communists left, not sure if being gay is okay with communists.

Our house and Wednesday night

So you can get a picture in your head of where I live here are some pictures of our house. I took them last night and in retrospect they aren't very revealing, but you can tell that the colour of the walls is Magnolia. Our bathroom, yes we have lots of stuff on the shelf and need to buy a bathroom cabinet but haven't got around to it just yet. The shower curtain is from Ikea and there is no lock on the door. In case you ever come to visit.

Our bedroom, complete with Jamie making the bed.

The lounge, with our poster of the first movie me and Jamie saw together. Its called Vertigo by Alfred Hitchcock, wouldn't recommend it, its quite long and quite confusing. But I am open to hear views on why it is Hitchcock's finest work.

The boys are playing poker in the living room so I am banished to the bedroom in a self imposed time-out. I am a bit bored and I have only been in here 7 minutes. And my bedroom is tidy, for once, so I can't clean that. Maybe I can read a book. But I want to watch the television. The Apprentice is on tonight. I love it. Here is the link to the website http://www.bbc.co.uk/apprentice/. Sir Alan sugar, the man who founded AMSTRAD is a legend and in a weird way kind of sexy.

Have also just got back from the gym after having a swim. I am having major problems with my back at the moment. I know not why. Usually my back is quite good. But I have 'ahlot ov tenshion' so says the Chinese masseuse I went to the other day, so am doing yoga and swimming and trying to improve my posture so i have less knots.

We are having a BBQ this long weekend because the weather is meant to be really nice abut 20 degrees and sunny. I'll put some pictures up later. I have to go to the toilet. Right I am back and that just used up 2 minutes of my exile time. This must be what prison is like stuck in one room with only a book and the toilet to amuse you. No wonder there are so many fights.

Jamie and I are thinking about buying a flat over here so on Saturday we are going to do some scouting around and see what we can find.

that's all we have planned for the weekend and lots of sleeping in and sitting on the patio with beer. Hope you all have lovely Easters and the Easter bunny brings you some chocolate or some nuts and raisin's (yes one year I did get Nuts and Raisins , it was more than disappointing, it wasn't even ETA brand it was a pick'n'mix!).

My Sunday looks a bit like this.

Get up have brunch with Ang and Chris and Jamie (pictured below) chat, shoot the breeze.
Go to the farmers market buy some bread, meat and vegetables. Come home tidy bedroom. Go to the gym sweat and burn some calories. Come home and have a shower. I did shower in the morning as well, fyi. Then go to the pub. Have some pints and dinner with flatmates and Simon. See below.

Come home, write this in blog and go to bed. Productive day I think, but tiring. xxxxxxx

Eurotrash!

Uohhhhh EUROTRASH! (sung to the tune of U2's Discotech. So last weekend my friends had a Eurotrash party, where we all dress as if we are off the first bus from Polack. I was aiming for the Eastern European prostitute look, did I pull if off?
You be the judge.

The boys all trashed up and ready to go.

The girls ready to go and no where to go.


Emily, me, georgia and Jaime looking for a suitable street corner.

feeling sorry for myself

Is there anything better than watching a home and away 3 hour episode when you are hung over, I don’t think there is. The drama, the sun, the accents. It’s all there. So last night we went out for Rosie’s going away drinks promising only to have one but we had more than one and now I am feeling sorry for myself. Lying on the couch all tired. And this morning we had a meeting at the bank with the mortgage man,Disaster home and away has just finished! What am I going to watch now? Have just found the coronation street catch up. Brilliant. So back to the mortgage story we turned by hung over at 10:00 and they made us wait for half an hour and then the system wasn’t working, its on a computer, the genius that works at the bank informed us. Anyway so we couldn’t get any info and we were grumpy and the guy that was talking to us was younger than me so I didn’t trust him anyway and then I came home and watched telly. Jamie wants to see 300 tonight a t the movies I am not so keen as it would involve me moving from the couch and takeing off my trackie daks.

I am slowly jogging

Me and some girls are doing the Walf for life for cancer research, breast cancer I think but not sure. Definately for cancer of that I am sure.

I will try to run it but will probably end up jogging and then walking for a bit and then jogging across the finish line.

Now I have moved up a class

For the past six weeks I have got a manicure every week. I am above doing my own nails. I don’t even own any nail polish remover. I am truly upper to middle class now. And we are on a budget now to save for the wedding, so I made my lunch EVERY day this week so I could afford to get my nails done on Friday. I also change colours depending on what I am doing, for example when In New Zealand I thought I am relaxing, a pale pink will do, in LA I was wanted to blend in so I had hot pink and in London I am mad to be back at work so Bright red. My nails are truly an indication of my mood they are now my number one priority, even above eating. Long may it last.

Ps I have now had several meetings about the photocopiers things are on the up!
