We found a flat today! We move in on Monday. I’m really excited about it, because the location is amazing! We’re right by Abbey Road, and just a short walk to Regent’s Park! Feeling very chuffed at finding somewhere to live so quickly, we headed to Camden Markets to enjoy the amazing weather. How cool […]
Read more "There’s No Place Like Home"This morning I stayed up until 4:00am booking flights. It was awesome. We’re doing Paris in a few days, then backpacking the Lake District for Easter, then the Royal Wedding followed by Sweden (Gothenburg) for another three day weekend (gotta love those public holidays!), then two weeks later we’ll be in Glasgow for Paul’s cousin […]

I couldn’t resist choosing my own winners! This isn’t so much a prediction, it’s just who I would give the award to. I couldn’t see […]
Read more "My Tony Awards"We woke up feeling bittersweet this morning. That’s a feeling I’m getting used to. I love New York and it feels weird to say that I’m ready to go.
