Dress Shopping

Busy week getting back. Work has become busier and busier. Not that I'm complaining because I'm happy to be busy. Went to Truro today to see if I can find a dress for Dale & Lauren's wedding. This place (meaning the UK in general) is painful to find a normal dress. The fashion here is frightful to say the least, especially when it comes to dresses. If I was interested in wearing something really flashy and short with tights underneath, I'd be all set. And let's top that off with a really big, ugly sequence belt and some bad flat shoes. Haha. I'm not joking! I've seen girls wear belts with gym pants. It's just not right. Anyway, no luck today. Visited several shops, but no dresses I would be caught dead in. I did however find an awesome long heavy grey skirt. It'll look great with my high boots. After shopping for a few hours I headed back home.

Pete invited us out tonight so we went to his place in Penryn for a few drinks. On our way to Falmouth we stopped at the Old Barrel pub beside his place and grabbed a quick drink while waiting for a taxi. We spent most of the evening at Weatherspoons where we met up with Nick. Afterwards we went to Fin McCool's where there was actually a live folk band playing! It felt like we were at the Lower Deck! We felt so at home. The place was packed but it was good. To end the evenings we went to Remedies. As Keith and I were drinking we crashed at Pete's but not before Pete whipped us up some bacon sandwiches. Haha. So funny I know, but they are traditional English fare and so good after drinking.
