This is seriously the wrong time to get re hooked to blogging, but for some reason, I have to update. Maybe its because I've been under house arrest for so long that I need to try and make myself known to the outside world. Lol.
Anyway I finally booked my Eurostar to Paris for this coming season, and I can't wait. I remember before me and Leslie used to totally cringe at Paris, there was one season when we were just complaining the whole time. I couldn't be arsed to leave her flat, we whined about the metro, and I just kept saying, "Oh my GOD I can't wait to be back in London".
But somehow between then (2009 I think?) and now, I have completely fallen under its spell and I cannot wait to head back. Though to be honest its probably all because I have such amazing friends there.
To be fair though, I kind of now have my Paris routine down pat.
1. Eurostar in.
Arrive in the morning, completely banjaxxed and head over to my French hotel which is always my jolie tart Sandrine's flat. Smoke out the window.
2. Rent a velib. Sandrine taught me how to cycle when I had forgotten how!
Cycle non stop and try not to get killed. Best when drunk.
3. Eat at Les Philosophes.

17. Eat at Cafe Charlot.
18. Have 30 minutes in the meal where you don't talk and just check twitter, followed by a conversation which includes the line "OMG We missed EVERYTHING" about everyone else's tweets and rant about how we should have gone to things the night before.
19. Go to one of Sandrine's shows. (Because DUH she's only Valentina Del Pearls, premiere French Rock and Roll burlesque superstar!)
