Wednesday 17th February

Hello all - so the week so far there have been up's and down's literally!!

Monday 14th February - alas I had 0 cards, perhaps the postman was sick or had an accident on his bike before he got to my flat.......?

Anyway I have been quite active on a certain dating website this week (POF) and have been conversing with a select few potentials, so watch this space for a date update :)

I also lost 1.5 pounds at WW, not sure how as I have not stopped eating, although I have been going to the gym more!! I do have a video but tehre seems to be a problem uploading it!!

On the doing new and different things, I attended the CIM Integrating Digital Media course (the reason for this blog) which was great I even learnt something!!

I have invested in an audience club card which is £25 per year and means you can see various shows, comedy's concerts etc for a small fee of £2 per ticket - a fantastic investment for seeing and doing new and different things, check out their website http://www.theaudienceclub.com/

On Friday night myself and the girls went to see an armature production of the musical rent - see below a clip on you tube:-


It was really good as musical goes,  I thought the main female character was amazing I normally like a bit of talking but managed to follow it!!

Saturday was supposed to be a day of study, I read a chapter of one of the books and typed a bit of my blog, which of course all goes towards my assignment :). 

Danni, my flatmate found a great new place to go for brunch,  called 'a little bit of what you fancy'.  There is a great review in time out:-

It was fantastic, great food and atmosphere or perhaps that was the bloody Mary's, prosecco and red wine.  We, the girls and the lovely Matt, then went to 2 pubs in Stoke newington, then we had dinner in Somine restaurant a delicious Turkish place in Dalston, then headed to the junction where we were joined by Matt's boyfriend Joe.  We headed to the hobby horse, then ended up at Zigfrieds for our friends dj night called 'Freitag'.  That's alot of brandy and diet cokes!!!

It was a great place to chat to single straight men and I spoke to a few with a cunning plan, people were wearing stripey tops for a birthday event, so i recruited a few people wearing checked shirts to be in the anti stripes gang, a little bit ridiculous but ended up giving my phone number out and getting a little snog at the end of the night!

Anyway so great night but totally hungover today and now must do some work on the other tasks in the assignment - 2 weeks before the draft needs to be in eek!!

So scores on the doors......

New and differnt things done = 3 - CIM course, new restaurant and theatre show
WW points = I think it's fair to say I havent been doing it proerly and am quite frankly a little bit sick of being on a diet!!! perhaps I'll start again Monday?!
Meeting single men = Top marks :)

  4. My saving grace during weight watchers was Mini Milks - only half a point each! Dunk them in a cup of tea (sounds weird but bloody good).
