Hello again,
I have now finished all the things I had to do before flying off to Cyprus for 6 days on Thursday. I went to Links of London in Marylebone to give Irene a card for helping out with something last week, also went to John Lewis to buy black thread. I have a pair of Harem trousers that were too big when I bought them and are now way to big so I needed black thread to take them in, which I have just finished doing. I then went to Tesco in Surrey Quays to buy sunscreen...

good morning

I had a better night last night, but since the air in our bedroom is very dry my airways are now more dry than yesterday when I spent the entire night in the armchair. Also having to blow my nose more... This all sucks!! Am sick of being sick! :-)
Today, I'm going to O2 to help Shirin get a contract on a Blackberry. If she can't get it in her name Husband has offered to help. Better to try to get it in Shirin's name first.
Then it is time to buy Michael's birthday present:

Tickly cough

I think tickly cough is far worse than an other cough. There is much coming up, just tickle, tickle, bloody tickle!! Fell asleep at around 3am when Husband came home from work, in the armchair as I knew there would be more coughing. At least he gets some good sleep, he needs it more than I do. woke up 10 minutes ago and can't stop coughing again, hurts a bit, feels like my lungs are coming out!! I bought cough medicine yesterday, but it tastes awful and it doesn't really help much, if any at all...

Like I said yesterday I had coffee with Dee and then I met up with Ricki-Lee's mum, Marina, in Surrey Quays. She asked me to bring R a package of stuff, am happy to do so :-)
Before going to Surrey Quays, I walked to Bank station form St Paul's Cathedral and took these pictures :-)
Space NK's window display, looking very Spring like, don't you think?

This morning I woke up at 2.50am, so again went downstairs to sleep in the armchair. Feels like an elephant is sitting on my chest at times, I have a lot of flem and stuff that needs to come out but it's not easy when it hurts when I cough. I seem to be having problems uploading pictures today so all I can give you are my words :-)

I woke up at 4.40 this morning, was coughing and couldn't sleep and was waking Husband up, who is very grumpy if he does not get his beauty sleep. So I went down stairs to sleep in the comfy armchair, but didn't stop coughing so I have been up on and off since 4.40 am.

Lana's Birthday

I was feeling so ill yesterday after being extremely stupid on Friday evening. I had Two whole bottles of Prosecco all to myself!! as well as having a throat infection, not a good combination at all. Felt better at around 6pm and so we decided to go to Lana's birthday party, but you'll be happy to know I have not a single little drop of alcohol. Felt like throwing up just smelling it. Am going to try to not drink any alcohol for a while now. I was not a pretty sight on Saturday morning.

Prosecco

Am starting to feel normal again, still have a cold and still feel a little sick. I think it is time to give up on alcohol for a while. I know it will be difficult but last night was way too much and can never happen again. We are going to Lana's birthday party tonight but there will be no drinking for me. I know people will ask if I am pregnant as I wont be drinking but who cares? Sorry Lana but no wine or anything poisonous for me tonight, feel like throwing up just thinking about it.

cardigan: H&M, top New Look, skirt: Topshop, belt: Warehouse, necklace: Warehouse, brooch: Accessorize
