A weekend in London

Here i was thinking that my weekend in London would be just like all the weekends i have spent at Q's place  but little did i know that it was going to be one of the best weekends ever. Let start with the Tom Tom being stubborn and trying to take us back to a closed road... luckily Suki's GPS had more sense to reroute us around that closed road. Anyways it took us longer to get to Northwood then usual and as there was a little gathering in memory of my Grandma we were rushing to get ready. We met up with family had a good time ate chilled out caught up with each other and by the time they were all gone it was 7:30 pm. It was my little cousins birthday as well so we had a little party for her. After clearing up we chilled out debating on what we should do. after 2 hours of debating (there was cake eating and tea and chocolates at regular intervals) finally at 11 pm we decided we were going for a drive. Just us girls. we left the children at home with the boys to babysit and then at finally at 11:45pm we were on our way. We went down sightseeing in Bond Street and were thinking of making our way to Edgeware Road but due to roadworks we ended up getting lost. We went to Camden Market, passes many stations (the only ones that stick to mind are Swiss cottage station and Chalk farm station) finally yet again it was Suki's GPS to the rescue. We finally got to Edgeware road where the fun really began. we walked down the road passing the numerous restaurants and Shisha Cafe's and then finally making our way down for some Shawarma. We decided to eat at the restaurant and so here we were 5 girls having a laugh on an early Sunday morning. I think by then we were all bit hyper and made the most silliest jokes and laughed at everything. At about 2:45pm the bouncer came to kick us out. That was the most hillarious experience yet as Chiru was all set on asking the bouncer to take a Photo with her but after getting kicked out she didnt even try. This was mainly because we were still laughing like lunatics. We walked all the way to the car laughing and it wasnt until we were 5 minutes away from home that the laughing actually stopped. by the time we got home it was 3:45pm. All knackered out we flopped into our respective beds and crashed for the next 6 or so hours. Come 10:30am everyone was awake and raring to go shopping and yet again this was a girls only expedition. The harlequin our most frequent hangout was where we were headed. After making minor dents on our credit cards we made our was to Mombasa Hut for some lunch and after that it was back home. What a weekend. I can honestly say that this has to have been one of the best and exciting weekends i have had in a long time.

awww sounds like such a fun night. I wish I had those. I think as I grow older my parents are getting more strict with me.

I hope you had a blast though. Mwah love you. We need to go on vacation together and stay out all night.
