Yesterday morning started with a nice early morning cycle out to Leith Hill and around the Surrey Hills. Always an excellent way to start the weekend and a good chance to get out of the madness that is London.

Then last night was Amanda's house warming party in Balham. The theme of the night was "Pimps and Ho's". And of course, me not ever wanting to be outdone at fancy dress, once again went all out. Both last week and last night I had hired costumes from a fancy dress shop up in Camden Town. I most likely could've found something cheaper and more local, but why bother when you can hear some awesome costumes for the night.

That went on til all hours of the morning, and eventually caught a cab around 5 or 6 this morning. There was no way I was negotiating two or three night buses to try and get home, especially the way I was dressed. The cab option was the only real choice.

After getting home at whatever stupid hour this morning meant a complete write off of a Sunday. I got in, went to bed and only woke up to get some water later on. Pretty much spent the entire day in bed, needing some sleep. Not often do I let Sundays go to waste, but today was definitely one of those days.
