Well, finally! We have had some warm weather. Despite being around 7 degrees on Monday, by Friday the temperature had lifted above 20 degrees. And it has been sunny!
The sunny weather lured many an office worker outside for a long lunch outside, followed by a couple of drinks outside at the local pubs. On my way home from uni on Friday at around 2pm, I saw pubs fuller than on a Friday or Saturday night!
Luckily, the weather has held this weekend. So we decided to brighten up our flat with a new plant, and headed off to the local nursery to find one (see picture above). We were very happy with our purchase :)
After lunch, we packed some afternoon tea and some wine and walked to Regent's Park. The combination of sun, warmth, wine, cheese and hommous made for a very enjoyable afternoon. Hopefully we will have many more such outings in the near future!
In other news, I have finished my second term of uni, and will be studying hard for a second round of mock exams in early April. I also have my dissertation to write by May. So it should be a very busy few months.
We are also heading off to Paris over Easter for a 4-day holiday. We are looking forward to sampling to local cuisine (Peter is particularly looking forward to the coffee!) and hopefully, the weather will be nice to us. To be continued in due course...
Oh, one more thing: I am trying out a new hairstyle - straight hair. I have a new hair straightener and am learning to use it effectively. Now I just have to wait for my hair to grow a bit more :)

I hope that you guys don't kill this one! You better take better care with the plant this time. :)
Just to clarify: the last plant died of bug infestation. Hopefully if the same bugs turn up we will spot them earlier, and be able to treat it better. Plus, we now know the garden centre and can approach them with questions! We will definitely scrutinise this plant more often :)
Remember, Peter. Don't aim for the extremities of the bug, they still remain 87% combat effective, aim for the nerve stem, put it down for good.
