The past few days have been rather full on busy with some of our international wedding guests arriving over in London, so there's been a fair bit of going out and meeting up. Starting off with Thursday night at the Grand Union in Wandsworth with Jen and Nathan. They'd just arrived in that morning so a crowd of us headed down to Wandsworth for a few beers with them. Followed by a bite to eat at Diana's next door.

After working late on Friday night to get the last of the wedding jobs sorted, Uns and I headed through to Somerset House on Saturday for the Sony Photography Awards but were probably a bit late to see it properly so decided against it. Instead we headed down The Strand and hopped on a bus to Shoreditch to the office to get more of the wedding jobs finished up. From the office we stopped in at Dirty Burger opposite Boxpark and then headed home.

On Sunday during the day Uns and I did a bit of sorting around the house and that afternoon made our way into town to meet up with Nic and Kris as well as Tom and Anna at the Big Easy in Covent Garden. Tom and Anna had arrived that morning and were in London this week until Friday when they fly out to Ireland, so was good to catch up with them this side of the globe. After ribs and plenty of BBQ smoked meats for dinner, Tom and Anna headed off and myself and Uns walked back with them to their hotel near Marble Arch, stopping off at Kula Ice Cream Parlour & Coffee Bar on Saint Christopher's Walk for a coffee beforehand.

Last night was the third international meet up, Si Woolley over at The Windmill on the Common in Clapham. Him and Suzie had arrived a few days earlier and were up north before Sizi made his way down to London for a few days. Was a good pre wedding catch up with some of the jukkas before we head off to Ireland tomorrow. No plans to head out tonight, just a bit of packing and sorting out around the house then off to Cork at midday tomorrow :)
