Unfortunately I did have to work Friday and Saturday but the double time was extremely welcome.
As it was such a gorgeous day on Sunday, my boyfriend and I decided to go up to Hampstead Heath and enjoy the weather. I adore everything about Hampstead - the beautiful unspoiled village with it's boutiques & fantastic pubs, the wild, vast untamed heath...
We wandered through the Heath for a while
then retired to The Holly Bush, a beautiful little pub just off the high street, that dates back to the nineteenth century, for a couple of glasses of rose and a very nice roast dinner. After The Holly Bush, we were in no mood to end the evening so continued on to The Flask, another of my favourite pubs in the area for another glass of rose and a game of Trivial Pursuit, ( I lost!)
We woke up late-ish on Monday and decided to go and see 'Submarine'. It's a strange, quirky little film but I loved it. It's coming-of-age film about a teenage boy in Wales trying to loose his virginity & cope with the potential break up of his parents marriage. Sounds run of the mill but the style is not. It's divided into slightly dramatic sections like a book but it works because it's the way teenagers see life. Well, it's the way I saw things when I was fifteen! Disaster strikes! The break up! Definitely a recommendation from me.
