Birthday tales
HAPPY BIRTHDAY isabonita!!!
Have a truly brilliant day :D
I had a really great birthday night on Saturday. We went to a Moroccan/Lebenese place in London with belly dancers and everything! And for the first time in my life, I had a martini.
And once I had a martini (and I mean one only) I was more than happy to 'dance' with them. I have no hip action and not much rhythm. But I gave it go! And then the giving it a go finished and I just posed with them.
But I have to talk about the martini again. It wasn't a dry martini or anything like that, it was a fruit mixture - but that's all I can remember. And frankly after a few sips I didn't really care. It was soooo strong. With one glass of martini I had 7 to 8 glasses of water - the waiter just kept topping it up (my theory is that he wanted me to pee). I felt so sophisticated when I drank it! Look at the picture, don't I look all grown up?
We booked the table for late on Saturday night and I thought that before I go I will be able to get me weekly TV fix. Which equals Strictly and Merlin. Guess what? Virgin Media died. AND I MISSED MERLIN. I missed MERLIN.
I missed THEM. I think me heart broke a little. The plot lines are ridiculous, the special effects laughable, yet it is one of the best shows I have seen in ages. I am in LOVE with Arthur (he is delicious) and I love Gwen and the actress who plays her. In this series they are starting to explore the various love shapes and I am loving it. And as I side note, I am going to go see Twelfth Night in the theatre in December and Giaus is in it!
WOOOHOOOO
