Uplifting

I actually had a far nicer bank holiday weekend than expected. Seeing my sister, bro in law and nephew was good and yesterday I had a nice day wandering in London. I went to Hyde Park for a bit and just sat there and watched the world go by and it was a really pleasant thing to do.

On the way home I went to M&S to try and purchase a couple of ladies’ undergarments *whispers* I mean bras, but don’t want to embarrass anyone. Without meaning to sound as though I am boasting in any way, I am not lacking in this department. We’re not talking Pamela Anderson proportions here but statistically I am above average *winks*. Anyway, what with being above average, I’d have expected that the flagship store of M&S would have ample stock to supply my ample needs but in fact they basically had nothing in the right size unless it was very expensive. I believe this is what could be referred to as a let down, which is never the ideal in such circumstances. What is the world coming to – last week Tesco did not have the cakes I needed and this week M&S didn’t have bras in stock. My search for the latter will continue.

I have actually managed to make a vague bit of progress in the dating stakes – and this was achieved by totally wimping out of something that I had planned to do. Cutting a long story short I am meeting up with someone in the next couple of weeks for something that isn’t a date, but could potentially turn into one or be a stepping stone to more exciting things. So in a strange kind of way it is all potentially exciting, but being my usual reserved self I am only allowing myself to smile about it a dozen times a day.

Finally, I think you should read this article, follow the advice carefully and then invite me round to sample your culinary skills.
