Monday morning already... oh well I had a nice weekend, albeit a quick one. I went to the hairdressers on Friday so I feel properly blonde again ;o) then I went for cocktails and some people watching in Royal Exchange Square followed by John's leaving do in a bar called Downtown. The bar was lively and loads of people from work came but the music was very cheesy. Ross came and met me and we went to the Thai Fountain for dinner - it was lovely! I had hot and spicy soup followed by a dish called Weeping Tiger (beef in a kinda rich soy sauce) and Ross had a red thai curry.
On Saturday I did a couple of hours studying in the morning then Ross and I went to meet our photographer at his studio in Linlithgow. We chose around 80 photos for our wedding album (not easy choosing from 665 photos!) so hopefully we will have it finished in time for Christmas as it gets made in Italy. It was lovely looking at the photos again, it brought back great memories from the day.
After we finished there we headed to Livingston and I bought one or two things in the designer outlet centre. We were staying at the Travelodge next to the shopping centre because it was Ross's cousin Iain's 40th birthday party that night. We met up with Ross's mum, dad, auntie and uncle before heading to the party. Thankfully it wasn't a dressing up party (Iain's wife Susan had a fancy dress party for her 40th last year - I went as Wonder woman and Ross went as Elvis!). I was happy to be in bed for about 1.30am because I wanted to be fresh for studying on Sunday. Which is exactly what I did. I probably studied for about 4 hours on Sunday, fitting in a wee walk in the sunshine and a bath to relax me! Ross made lovely lentil and bacon soup and a beef casserole - he's turning into a right modern house husband these days! On Sunday night I rewarded myself by watching X Factor - I'm addicted! In fact I'm so sad I cried when the contestants had to go home and tell their familes they were in either in or booted out! So the weekend was over before I knew it. Tonight I'm supposed to be going to a committee meeting for my opera club however I've had to put in my apologies as I have too much studying to do. 11 days until the big exam... and counting... x

Too much information about food!!! You'll be telling us how it came out at the other end next! "Mine was a tan brown colour and about 4-5cm long with a rich nutty smell, whereas Ross was slightly niffier due to the curry content and was a deeper brown/red colour and about 6cm long with a more runny consistency..." LOL

Trust your sis to lower the tone, eh Lorna???!!!
