Brighton – Part 1

I’m on the train to London as I type this, only 2 hours left of my journey so I thought I’d share some pictures from Brighton last weekend. There’s quite a few… and probs a part 2 to follow this. Enjoy!

Katrina in the North Laines

LOL. Enough said.

Frighton.

Such a lovely wee shop.

Could have spend hooours in there.

Just huggin’ a giant teddy, as you do.

That’s what! Finally gave in to this rather strange and tickly experience.

Enjoying my mustache elixir from Cyber Candy.

In the hotel getting ready to go out 🙂

Despite warnings we ended up at Revolution… and had a really amazing night!

And ended up getting pretty drunk. Totoro hat anyone? Best buy from the whole trip!

Of course, then the elixir kicked in and our mustaches grew.

Sunday morning we did more shopping and went for tea at Temptation.

And met up with the amazing Lauren for a wee catch up 🙂 She was so so lovely – and also sorted us with our hotel for the weekend, what a legend! Sad we didn’t get to meet Sophie 🙁 Maybe next time though.

More wandering and stumbling across amazing places 🙂

It was pretty windy, but still lovely jubbly.

Took a wander through the arcade, played on the dance mat and then saw THIS!

Plus my new ride.

And my sexy new boyfriend?

Brighton was an absolutely fantastic place to visit, just as you all ranted and raved it would be. Even though the weather was a bit chilly it stayed dry, which was great but I can imagine it’s totally brilliant in summer. It is the seaside after all! We took a wander around the shops, and I managed to get a lot of christmas shopping especially from all the quirky wee places in the north laines. I got some lovely stuff but I’ll share that in the next post because I think there’s quite enough in this one as it is! We had a great night out too, stumbled into bed about 1am and made the most of our sunday morning/afternoon too before we had to go for the train home. Amazing people, amazing shops and a really amazing place in general. Most certainly would like to go back – and thanks for all the suggestions you made in my previous posts because we really were able to cram a lot into 2 days there.

I’m London bound this week with my 3 day Art Department course, then friday I’m travelling to Bristol to the South West Blogger meet! Can’t wait to see everyone, should be a really fun night. Leave me a comment if you’re going too? Again, wanting to cram as much as I can into my evenings in London so if you’ve got any suggestions of places to eat, drink or things to do at night please let me know. I’m meeting my friend Sally for dinner tomorrow night, and we’re going to Hyde Park Winter Wonderland on thursday 🙂 My uncle works at the National Theatre so I’ll hopefully get tickets for something there, and maybe something else in the west end. Got wifi at the house so should be able to stay connected this week 🙂 It was my last day at work on saturday, and my last job until january so I’ve been looking forward to this wee holiday. Hope you’re all not having too hectic a run up to christmas?

Lots of love,

Ayden x

Ps. Remember I said in the last post I’d forget something to take to Brighton? I only went and forgot all my bloody christmas cards I was gonna write on the journey there! Numpty. Got them with me this time though 🙂 So let’s wait and see what I forgot in their place…
