Cheap eats

augusti 10th, 2011 Inga kommentarer

Simon and I were by Oxford Street yesterday in order to look for some last minute things for Corfu (forgot to buy sunscreen.. damn it) .
ended up by Carnaby Street so we decided to have a late lunch at Cha Cha Moons.

Recommended if you’re on a tight budget. We got one of their summer specials, a main course and a side dish for 10 pounds.

I had the singapore fried noodles with chicken dumplings, and simon had some other noodles with spring rolls.

Left satisfied and happy!

had a lovely thai green curry at monkey & me, the staff remember us every time. really good service there. highly recommend it!

Joe & The Juice

met up with hanna outside of topshop after buying some items for my halloween costume (don’t reckon it’ll be that amazing this year but i just can’t afford anything special so i’m using an old outfit :/ )

we walked around and found joe & the juice off of carnaby street and well.. good coffee juice and sandwiches but a bit overpriced.

enjoyed a good catch up with hanna, will be seeing her again at the halloween party on saturday!

i’ll tell you two things i don’t recommend. oxford street in the rain (unless you like being attacked by umbrellas of course), and lush emotibomb (literally does NOTHING).

met up with simon on oxford street yesterday. i need a new bra since i’ve shrunk a bit, gotta love GAP for these things! then he wanted to go to Lush for some bath things. so tonight, BATH TIME! got a bomb, you put in and it just makes bubbles and the water smell good and turn a weird color. excited.

A walk to remember

after dad arrived. went home to let him drop off his suitcase and whatnot. i got loooots and lots of candy, plus some nice photo frames with pictures of my mom, sister, and me :)

then we went for a walk. walked from mine to marylebone high street, then to oxford street, then to new bond street, to carnaby steet, then regent’s street, then piccadilly circus, then trafalgar square, then the duke of york statue, then buckingham palace, st james park, green park, mayfair, oxford street, selfridges, then back to mine!!

yeah my feet hurt.

got back, chilled. then simon came around and we went to dinner!

simon got really antsy about just staying in all day yesterday so after dinner we got ready and went out for a quick drink..

Picture 1

little did we know what our night would end up being so much more.

we walked to the high street and went to the marylebone. they had a deal on cocktails, two for one, so i made simon have drinks with me :) hehe. let me tell you he did not enjoy drinking a watermelon cosmopolitan! (although it was gorgeous) we also tried the pear julip (no bueno), elderflower margarita, and lychee chili! drunk? yes.

then instead of being sensible and going home i somehow convinced simon that going out, just the two of us, was an amazing idea!

so there we were, walking down the high street to oxford street, swigging a bacardi breezer. we must have been quite the sight.

got to strawberry moons and decided to go for the jugs. danced around, acted like idiots, chatted with some americans, then headed home.

for some reason simon decided to be my ‘pimp’, so i sat in corners on oxford street, in heels a dress and a chanel bag, begging for money. i’ve never laughed so hard in my life. thinking about it today, people must have thought i was ridiculous, which i am. then we tried to convince a bike taxi to take us back to mine for 5 pounds.
‘how much is it to marylebone?’
’15′
’5′
’10′
’5′
‘no can do, 10 is the lowest i’m going’
‘never mind then’

and that happened about three different times.

then simon caught sight of the barclays bikes. yep, you guessed it. he decided to take me for a ‘ride’, which more or less included me trying to hold on for my dear life whilst simon tired to stay up right.  we fell, and fell, and fell. then finally i said no more, i’m walking the rest of the way.

so just as we turned off regent’s street a BMV drives up and tried to get my attention, simon blew the guy a kiss. now apparently the guy didn’t like gays, so he got out the car and spat in my face? yeah OOOOOOKAY THEN. it all went downhill from there. 4 dirty sand people against me and simon, seems fair.. not. so another couple walking past decided to help out. and looking back on it now, it would have been soo funny to watch. guys beating up the idiots who started it, one girl trying to claw people’s eyes, and yet another girl hitting the guys with her purse.

called the cops, had their license plate number, waited, waited, waited… then finally the police came and guess who got a ride home in a cop car? me.

not because i’d done anything wrong, simply cause simon asked ‘sooo uhh,.. mind giving us a lift home?’

what a night.
