My Sunny Weekend

The warm weather has finally hit the UK and I'm loving it! 

Brand new flouro Havs. I was chatting to the shop assistant at my local op shop and found them. She said "they're £2" even though they were not. When I protested and tried to give her the right money, she said "no, no, I'm reading the price tag and they are definitely £2." Bless. There was a sign that said "No discounts ever".

With sunshine the parks turn into seas of sunbathers. I took a book and a picnic rug to Hampstead Heath and it was crowded. It's hard to chillout with people yelling and throwing frisbees overhead. Not to mention dogs that come up and lick your the face.

Girls night out in Shoreditch. We hit up Coollah Callay and Nightjar, two of the best top 50 bars in the world and quite rightly in their own ways. These cocktails at Nightjar were exquisite. I had a beef cocktail, yup. Beef!

And here are the ingredients. To be honest, I could'nt taste anything but gin but that's my lazy palate.

Stumbled across a quaint Portugese patisserie in Mornington Crescent called Lisboa. There was a guy having one of these for breakfast and it looked so good I ordered one too. The staff are friendly and the food is delicious. Their coffee is true to the Portugese, spurring back fond holiday memories...

Sunday afternoon in Hyde Park at the Serpentine Lake. Gf and I shared a bottle of Prosecco and basked in the warmth. 

Taking the Boris bikes for a spin.
