Long time no update

Got home from a weekend away with the flatmates in Budapest, had gorgeous weather in Hungary and totally relaxed...brunch every day, went out to restaurants and had drinks at night, spent Sunday in Roman style baths. Went on a biking tour on Saturday for about 4 hours which was fantastic, learnt a lot about the place (did you know it is separated into 2 parts, Buda & Pest?). I love being able to fly to places for the weekend! Makes the grey skies and dark mornings/nights that are quickly closing in worthwhile.

Apart from that, Mum, as you all know, was here for a few weeks and left just over a week ago. We had a great time together, doing much of the above (eating good food, seeing lots of lovely places, shopping...). Went to Paris and got stranded in Charles de Gualle airport overnight (thanks Easyjet), literally covered London inside out, bumped into Bob Geldof (well, he bumped into Mum) and drove for the first time in 8 months (down the M4 no less). But now its back to reality with a thud. Nothing is planned until after New Years now (at the moment anyway!), when I will be jetting to NYC to meet up with Katie and Shelley.
