I am broken, officially broken. This however is only to be expected when you stay up for about 22 hours straight and polish off close to 6 bottles of wine between three people. I'm so toxic I don't even have the energy to shudder at the thought.
The day began innocuously enough with slap up 'breakfast of champions' in preparation for our big day of Wedding Dress shopping which lay ahead. An efficient trip out to Richmond in yet another street car, courtesy of the map application on Sarah's iPhone and we were ready to begin. By the way, I'm definitely getting an iPhone when my Vodafone contract is up. They're deadly. The whole process of trying on dress after dress also went very smoothly. I feel it helped that we stopped in Wagamama for lunch to refuel and prime ourselves for more. £12 on something Japanese and noodley, asparagus and tea and we were ready to go again. It was only when we were in the car on the way back that we realised how exhausted we were and that there was no way we were going anywhere that evening. A quick stop off in Sainsburys for some groceries and a bottle or two of wine (just in case!) - £15 - and we were back home cooking dinner in our pyjamas.
As is was earth day we turned off all the lights and appliances at 8.30 and had a delightful candlelit dinner and a few drinks. We followed this up with some ghost stories (as we were in the dark) and some more drinks. Then some games and some more drinks and a few more drinks…. Then just a few more. It was bright when we finally called it a night and hit the sack. I feel it was a feat of superhuman strength that three 'ladies' who, at 7.30pm were too tired to do anything but laze around in their pyjamas, managed to stay up for about 11 hours more.
Total spent today £27. I am also totally spent.
