Oxford 2012 Part 1

Finally my trip in October and the first long weekend away as a couple. We went Bodleian Library, so beautiful, The Museum of Astrology and TheMuseum of Natural History both free and interesting.

Presents

Boys and Girls did you get everything you wished for? Well I did apart from another ring on my finger. The flowers are a gift to my self as was the Soap and Glory products.

I got a random present from my Aunt the Barbie, unfortuntly its not a welcomed item as I have had problems with previous and current tenants who are from that country, mainly forgetting that I dont need to be kept uptil the early hours by music and telephone calls back home. So I tempted to burn it and really the costume is quite dull considering the richness of their culture.

Boots Home Diary is quite good for the lady who wishes to be more organised and hopefully richer.

A peak inside the out of print book I wanted from Waterstones.

The silver star Earrings are from Silver Scene, a gift from my Aunt who's in business with the owner. The silver hooped are from my Honey.

I also got Hollywood Costume using my Amazon vouchers which is a nice book to have but not essential if you already have the first.

2012 round up

Food, love, new places, new faces and alot of gifts to myself.

V&A in Nov

So where do you take your boyfriend when you are low on funds? Why the museum of course. At the time there seemed to be quite a few fee paying dress exhibits at the V&A, which means its a bit silly to have a really good free exhibit, so why pay?

Christmas Comes Twice

I know its New Year but I havn't finished catching up in 2012! I did something I never did before I had a christmas with no family. In Novemeber me and my Partner celebrated our christmas, anticapting that work would get in the way of our celebrations. My other half lost his job so we celebrated christmas regardless. No turkey this year, lovely chicken and I worked my first Boxing Day in 12 years of working (time to change jobs).

More Horrockses and Why Ebay is over for me

I finally sold my PVC corset! Pretty upset as I had been waiting for it to be in my price range for ages (like 6 months) then I lost weight (was the idea) and now its too big. Unfortuntely I spent the revenue the next day as I discovered a Horrockses dress and you now what, its the same print as my other Horrockses so I had to buy it. Now being a seasoned buyer of vintage I now know that whenever I see a duplicate of something I should buy it. Still kicking myself for not buying that Pat Sandler knit dress with the gold bow (still hoping to get back into that)and it was a great price as well. Still waiting for my Swirl dress which I also bought, I also discovered the seller had put it on eBay. Do hope they decided to sell it to me and not the highest bidder. And today I saw my first Opera at the Royal Opera House called L'elisir d'amore and crossed on of my things to do before I am thirty list.
