Finally discovering the charity shop that sells the cheap books.

Getting an email asking me to come to view a flat. It might actually happen!

Jen and Fiona. Tonight felt fun and easy.

Lunch with Rosie and Jana. With a special appearance by Miro.

Ghosts.

Picking up a new book from Crisis.

Last minute charity shopping – hat, dress and three books.

HOLIDAY! Hello Palermo!

Boob.

Sunday morning sexting.

Trying on my silver skirt again that I bought from the charity shop yesterday. I love it! I feel so swishy and lovely in it.

Lunch with Rosie and Jana. All vegan. All delicious. Even if the menu did have some wanky sounding stuff.

Adam being back at work.

Spending the day booking Japan accommodation.

A Cos dress in a charity shop for £15.

Cracking on with a job application no problems. I can do it when I want to.

Boy chat with Lauren after she came back from her holiday. 

New dresses. A classic shapeless denim one and a sparkly black one that makes me feel slinky. Thanks charity shop!


Remembering last night. Remembering I bought this Slow Jams CD from a homeless man whilst very drunk.

Finding jeans in a charity shop! (They later turned out to not actually fit amazingly well but still, it was an exciting moment)

Dinner at Jen’s. Delicious and feminist-y.


Walking around Soho with Jonny, planning what we’ll do and where we’ll live when we’re rich.

Wearing my new charity shop shirt.

Jonny saying he would move in with me. Yay, he’s not planning on leaving!


My amazing charity shop haul. I got some great clothes for hardly any money at all! New trousers for £2 and a lovely man’s woollen jumper for £2 too. Yes please.

An evening with my boo, Jonny. I haven’t seen him for ages. So we went to Petek. Obvs. 

Jen gossip and a Britney-esque photo. What a plum.


Walking down to Angel, through the autumn-y park. Autumn is so damn beautiful.

A day of doing my own thing. Mainly charity shop shopping. And walking. And thinking. And listening to Body of Human, discovered thanks to a woman on OKCupid. Sofie Hagen and Josie Long. What a lovely, positive treat.

Texting Jen in the evening. She’s a funny one. I like hearing about the office.

Steam cleaning. My first time. And so much to steam.
Spur of the moment trip into the charity shop by my house and I walked out with four new tops for £13.50. So happy.
Fancy afternoon tea (for dinner) with Al. So much sugar.

I really liked the splat mark of my teabag this morning.
Chatting to the lovely friendly woman on the Scottish food stall.
Walking home in the sunny warm evening, popping into a new charity shop and trying a few roads I haven’t walked down before.

He bought me an Easter egg!
New friends in Emmanuel and Alec.

Working from home, on my bed, with my toes in the sun

Finding the Stephen Fry autobiography that I’ve wanted for ages at the charity shop

The adorable man on Grand Designs as he ran after some paper that blew away in the wind. They were such a lovely couple and made such a gorgeous place.

The name of this charity shop. I’m not against helping donkeys in the Holy Land, but it wouldn’t be my first choice of charity.

Seeing my nan smile.

The train conductors announcements “hello beautiful people. The next stop on this magical mystery tour is Croyden.”

This sign outside a cafe near work

A slightly guilty trip into the charity shops on my lunch break. But £6 on a work top and a lovely salt shaker isn’t going to set the savings back too much

Going to see Hemingway’s Fiesta (the sun also rises). A brilliant, brilliant play at Trafalgar Studios.
