Day out to Windsor

It was a short getaway from London to Windsor a few Saturdays ago. The original plan was to go Stonehenge as proposed by Deborah as she hasn't been there before. But ended up we spent too long time in Windsor that we decided to just chill out there instead. The drive from London to Windsor was about an hour, and from Windsor to Stonehenge takes another 1.5h. Autumn colours Man feeding the many swans we saw in Windsor I remember going to Stonehenge with Cynthia more than 3 years ago. And for some reason I wasn't as in awe as what I thought I'd be. It looks the same as what you get on postcards- the same rocks, the same formation. (Didn't know what was I thinking.) And then K refers them as "the pile of rocks". So you can probably tell we were not that interested to go again having gone before. oops! Overall it was a very lazy Saturday afternoon. It was a gloomy autumn day so not too many photos were taken that day. And it got dark aft...

Housewarming Party

Two parties in two consecutive Saturdays. (Woah I sound like some party animal but I am not.) This time round, it is my turn to co host our very own housewarming party with my housemates Rebecca and Marcia. These two girls came up with this idea and managed to convince me (not that I needed much) to do it. They set the date of 5 Nov and told me about their grand plans when I came back from Singapore. "Sounds like fun, yes let's do it!" Marcia, Me, Rebecca Between 3 of us, we invited more than 40 people turned up and yes, close to 40 turned up. I think it's the biggest party I've ever hosted. Not that I have hosted many parties. I was fretting quite a bit the days leading to Saturday because I had no idea what food we should provide and from where I come from, house warming parties pretty much means chicken curry, fried bee hoon, fried rice, chicken wings, otah... err... fishballs? Super Singaporean haha and doing it with an Australian and Irish is gonna be ...
