I stopped in at the bike shop...
on my way in this morning… to try and fix my wonky saddle problem once and for all… the guy fixed it up good and proper but now that it’s fixed it just feels strange… was so abnormal for so long it began to feel normal… needless to say things like that often happen in my life…
Summer decided to make a return to London town today. It’s a blissful 29 degrees here… outside meeting this morning was fab! Now that the afternoon is spinning and spinning, it’s becoming a wee bit uncomfortable… mind you I don’t mind too much it’s better than blasted air con!
Just found out that Andrea and I are living in a different planet as the Big chill festival is this weekend and we’re going to miss it. I really wanted to see Andy’s gig on Friday night… but alas it’s now too late and it’s all sold out!
Someone forgot to wind the clocks today I’m so certain. Time is passing unbearably slowly… maybe it’s the heat?

Along with the beautiful cows
The weekend was good fun... Leaving from city airport on a Friday night is quite funny… as you can imagine it was all suits and just little old me I didn’t look out of place at all I swear... The flight was super fast and I think the best part about it was being able to see the sun set! It was so lovely… seeing the sun set is one of the things that I miss the most about living in London… you just never see it.
Mr. S collected me and we dropped my stuff off at his place and headed out to meet up with some of his mates. A few vodkas and laughs later with a bit of dancing thrown in for good measure… it was time to call it a night. Saturday morning we recovered while S fed me full of watermelon and strawberry and grape smoothies, Yum! Squeezed in some shopping and procured some ever precious chocolate sprinkles to bring with me back to London… got some for miss Andrea too! Ate the best Italian sandwich I’ve ever had and then went for a nice long walk where we visited the baby cows pictured below. Champagne and lots of chatter and such later the night turned into day and one quick bowl of vla later - and I was whisked back to the airport by my gracious host and off to Birmingham to meet my seestor.
I arrived literally 10 minutes before her and her crew did. Perfect timing! Once checked into the hotel we ventured out the strip joint laden and chilly streets of the city to find somewhere to have lunch. After eating we headed straight back to Seestors hotel as she was feeling ill… We chilled out until 19h when I headed out towards the coach station to catch a bus back to London… What a production… in true Sarah ‘weird things only happen to me style’ I ended up sitting with the bus driver right up front… I mean like right next to him in the seat normally used by the tour guide (wasn’t a regular coach) it was so funny. Why is it that things like that only happen to me? It meant no sleeping like I had originally planned; I had little choice but to chat with the coach driver for the entire journey!
I find whenever I travel my mind bubbles up with millions of thoughts and observations and strangeness… It’s quite exhausting… guess it’s a side effect of having time away from the normal spin that is my life and once I’m out… my brain goes on the spin cycle in an attempt to quickly remove all traces of damp that my life usually sports… crazy! Even in my sleep things are manic and strange… I must bring my laptop the next time I travel and try and write some of it down…
Had dinner with the lovely miss Andrea at her place last night and got home just after midnight… getting out of bed this morning was slow!!!! Can I just say that girl hormones suck a lot…? Yea thanks.
I would have so loved to see this gig! Imagine?
Meeting up with miss woo tonight to give her all the pictures she took on my camera for the nude painting she was commissioned to do… such a funny thing to have a camera filled with pictures of naked men! Her and Jo jo moving again this weekend… back again with Faye just like old times!
Dan is off on her eastern holiday extravaganza soon… I will then be left to rat sit… Think rattus and I might just get a bit rock and roll while his mum is away! *chocolate for supper!*
