for some strange reason...
my diet coke tastes like grapefruit

it's summer here today... 18 degrees! what's that about? It's great, don't get me wrong... but wow, what a surprise!

At lunch I popped around to a few of the posh shops around my office with my boss... we helped a posh girl buy a skirt in Joseph while the snarky French shop assistants just snickered at her... we hated them and left...

Then we went across the street and braved the Gaultier shop!

The shop assistants in there wer lovely, friendly and down to earth. I tried on a pair of jeans that were on sale for 50£ bargain... too bad they didn't make it over my thighs :) However... I must let you know that they have the funniest fitting rooms in the world... I now know where to go the next time I'm stressed out at work -> out of the office, round the corner to the Gaultier fitting room... They're padded and white and squooshy... much like a fabled mad house... when you shut the door it makes this air tight swooshing noise... I prodded the walls and everything... you could go mad in there and bounce off the walls and no one would know. I love it! I think perhaps the high street retailers should take note and follow suit... may make for a more stress free shopping trip! I mean I could have thrown a proper fit about the jeans not fitting... get it out of my system- then return to the shop floor as sane as before...
