Winter Wonderland, Hyde Park


Met up with Twyford people today at the Winter Wonderland fair in Hyde Park. Chrissie and her boyfriend Chris were there as well as Ussif, Ryan, Dawud, James Speed, Simon (from Geography), Annurai and other people I'd known in 6th form. It was lovely to see them as it didn't feel that any time had passed since we'd last seen each other. However, it soon got very cold and everything was expensive so we began to walk towards Queensway where some of us wanted to go ice-skating. The walk was SO much longer and more tedious than we'd expected so they all went to Nandos but I decided to head back home. I was frozen and very tired.
I met Chesca at northfields as she'd just come back from shopping with Matilda at High Street Kensington. We took the E2 from there to Simona and Tamsin's house where mum, dad and abu were having tea. Chesca and I were so grateful to be somewhere warm with a hot mug of tea and a slice of Christmas cake - pure bliss! It was also nice to catch up with Tamsin, who has lots of plans to go travelling, and Simona who was telling us about this new diet she's been on. Morgan their cat was there too and spent most of the evening circlign our legs before falling asleep on Chesca's lap.
