Back once again like a renegade master.

Back back back! What did I miss? Yesterday it seemed like I'd been away for about six months, most of them on aeroplanes. The thought of coming back and living my silly, chaotic life in over-crowded, grumpy London again seemed fairly dreadful for a while; right up until I got back to my street and there was a sandwich board outside my local pub

It does feel like six months! We should meet up and do stuff! Lxx

Yes let's! I have to go to Socktopus again soon (maybe after work on a Thursday as it doesn't close till 8) if you fancy accompanying me; otherwise, let's do something the weekend after this one. I will need to compare thoughts on Eurovision with you - it really won't be the same, watching it on iPlayer by myself and not being able to argue over our wildly different opinions on who should get 12 points...

Hurrah! I'm free on the 23rd if thats any good? Soctopus om nom!

I was thinking about that shopping trip you vaguely suggested and seeing how neither of us want to cry in shops, and I think you have lots of lovely clothes, I was wondering if you'd rather do a wardrobe sort out and find new ways of putting together the stuff you like and make a list of the things you need so you can get them online without thinking about it too much?

Ooh, maybe - we should hang out and discuss it first. I read the book by Linda Grant about clothes while I was on holiday, and while I've forgotten its name, she made me think about clothes differently and realise it's part of my life I need to sort out somehow... (Erk!)

Was it The Thoughtful Dresser? That's next on my to-read pile. Mind you, all Linda Grant books are about clothes.

Clothes are exciting, but also stressful. If being dragged round shops doesn't work, doing it with different people is like that whole repeating the same experiment again and again and getting the same result and being confused.

Lets do something relaxing involving yarn and tea and things.

Yes, that was it. I disagreed with a lot of it, but still thought it was excellent.

The 23rd is good for me! Let us coordinate plans by email!
