One Last (pre-3-of-Us) Shin-dig

With only 5 weeks to go until bump joins our little family we took the opportunity to do some of the things that might prove to be a little more difficult with a bub.
So we're in London for the weekend staying at Canary Wharf courtesy of Catchy & Sarah. (thanks guys!)
Yesterday we saw not one, but two(!) West End shows & shared a lovely dinner at Chev Gerard French Restaurant.
We had booked tickets for 'Wicked' at the Apollo Theatre in Victoria. It is absolutely phenomenal!! Loved it loved it loved it!!! Music was amazing, staging was brilliant, & the girl who played the Wicked Witch of the West had the most captivating voice I think I have ever heard. I didn't want it to end!
After our French dinner, we were surprised by a friend who saw some cheap tickets last minute for the night performance of Sweet Charity, so off we went... Apart from being way up in the Gallery & feeling uncomfortably preganant the show was great! What a treat! Thanks Jonny!!!

We're now sitting in a lovely little delicatessan on bank holiday Monday; been here since breakfast, and just had lunch, enjoying a very lazy day.
Last night we caught up with Maciek and Una back at Waterloo and saw Invictus at the BFI- brilliant film- after a fun dinner at the pub we used to hang out at when Matt worked at Evans Cycles. One hightlight..on the way home in a packed tube, a lady very 'politely' asked a man to get up because 'this lady is really pregnant'!! Hehehe. Feeling slightly embarrassed and very red in the face I gladly accepted the seat! ;)

Such a fun weekend! To top it all off we have first class tickets back to Manchester.
Yippee!

Thankyou Matthew for a fun filled, exciting and relaxing weekend. You're the best!!
