THAT WAS THEN: Archive

Today

Was my last day at Laura Ashley. My, how quickly four years have gone by…I will miss the ladies I work with terribly. How they’ve made me laugh until I cry and kept me going through long, dreary days. My perpetually positive, happy, smiling, gossipy, wonderful ladies. I love them all dearly and will miss them even more so. But now is onto a new chapter in my life, new year, new job,...

There’s no party like a Mauritian party. Yes the woman in the yellow scarf is my mother.

Merry Christmas!

I just wanted to take some time to wish you all a Merry Christmas! I hope everyone has a wonderful day and spends it with people they love. Please just take a moment or two out of your day to think about those less fortunate than yourselves. Use it as a chance to appreciate how lucky we are :) I hope you all get a chance to relax and enjoy the festivities!

Christmas Eve

Watching adorable men of all ages panic buying for their wives, mothers and girlfriends. One beautiful older man, probably in his late fifties with a dapper tweed coat in particular who came in and bought his wife a beautiful silk throw because she had made a comment about how lovely it was earlier in the week. Trying not to let my cold/illness/fever/stomach bug affect my Christmas mood, despite...

How I am finding...

Watching Love Actually at Christmas time is one of my favourite things. It makes me laugh and makes me cry and breaks my heart in all the right places and puts it back together.

Life has been impossibly busy lately. My cousin has come over from Mauritius, so I have been attempting to entertain her whilst also working an inordinate amount. Today we went to London. We looked round Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park. Dropped into Harrods where I had to be physically removed from the Theysken’s Theory rails. And finally warmed up in the Natural History Museum. I...

poliknish asked: What are some of your favorite books other than Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter? And have you read The Hunger Games yet? I thought I wouldn't like it but its actually been a while since a book affected me so deeply, I'd love to know what you thought of it if you've read it :) x

thelightsthelights: my girlfriend and I have been together for over 7 months now and yet there is still someone that finds it necessary to take time out of their day to send my girlfriend harassing, anonymous messages. These messages are sent with a clear intent: to turn my girlfriend against me by spreading lies… Yeah, seriously. Whoever’s messaging me anonymously, your messages...
