girl power

Today was my friend's birthday and she, another friend and I painted the town, if not quite red, then certainly a pale pink.

We met for coffee and cake at The Crypt cafe. Then we set out into the drizzle to do a bit of elephant-spotting. This was followed by cocktails at the ridiculously opulent Gilg@mesh bar. Then we wandered around C@mden Lock Market, sampling pastries and trying on hats. This worked up an appetite for tapas and a final cocktail.

Inbetween all the shopping and imbibing, we talked and laughed and shed 20 years. I got home tonight more cheerful than I have been all year.

Whatever your age, sometimes there really is nothing like a day out with the girls.

  1. oOoOo gurly days/nights out are the best kind...it's been too long!

    I'm hoping of having a few of those when I'm over in the mother country in October!

    Glad it lifted your soul!

  2. Here's to days out with girlfriends and shops! It was definitely a much needed break.
