Well the weather has been FANTASTIC lately!! Last weekend I went to Newquay and it couldnt have been nicer! Arrived on the Friday and went right to bed I was so tired. Come the Saturday, Alicia and I were raring to go! Had a look around the shops (all a bit lame) and then went to the beach! At first I was excited to see all the waves and white sands and so decided to go for a paddle. I swear to god that if that water hadnt been salty it would have been frozen. Soooooooooo cold. People were in swimming though as the sunshine was warm and lovely! Had a great afternoon on the beach and then in the bar, got slightly drunk and sunburnt but its just not a holiday without sunburn!
That night was a big BBQ at the hostel which was really nice, apart from the meat!! We then went to a big beachside pub next door and had loooooooots of drinks and dancing! Was so so much fun. I finally staggered home at 4.30am!! What an insane time! It felt like even more of an insane time the next say when we had to leave at 9am for a full day of activity. We started off going to St Ives, was so so lovely and I was absolutely charmed!! After a half day there we went to St Michaels Mount which is opposite Penzance. Was also lovely but I declined to climb the hill and instead lay on the beach.
After that we went to Lands End. We were dropped off about a mile before it and walked around the coastline to it. The views were stunning and it was easily worth the walk. 
After that we went to this amazing outdoor theater kinda cut into the hillside to see a performance of Les Miserables by Kidz R Us. I had a hard time remembering that it was children I was watching they were soooooooo good.
I was knackered after all that activity!!
Next day we were on our way back and we went to Tintagel and to Tintagel Castle, the birthplace of King Arthur!! To be honest I wasnt wowed by it and so had another spell in a charming pub before making our way back to London. I was pleased as I managed to get another charm for my charm bracelet......a mini cornish pastie!!
This week has not been quite so busy....mostly as I am beyond broke!! I struggled through worl on Tuesday....was a bit of an effort to say the least! Wednesday I had a loooooooooooooong sleep, so needed. Thursday I went out with my cousin who is down in London at the moment....ended up dashing the diet with dinner plus desert. Did the same on Friday with dinner with some people from work (and drinks and desert....disaster!!). Saturday was a bit better, went out for a few drinks on Saturday night for a random persons birthday which turned out to be quite fun and managed not to break the diet too much!! Today, Sunday, was a diet write off! Went to meet an old flatmate of mine for drinks and a big gossipy catch up and general man bitch fest (not in my good books right now!) and ended up staying for the roast with all the trimmings and dessert. Again. Oh am not too good at the diet thing but I am loosing weight slooooooooooooooooooowly! Like gram by gram. No one wants to sacrafice having a life though! Me especially.
Completely have to reign it in this week though...makes it easier with the nice weather though.....today was one of those days where even though the sun has gone down you can feel the heat coming off the pavement! I think mext week my expenses are going to be hanging out in the park and not the pub!
