Crete | teacups and tealights

Let loose in London: Bond in Motion | teacups and tealights

I 100% prefer buying presents than receiving them. Anyone else? It's getting to watch them open a present that you know they will love and seeing them be so pleased with it. It's my boyfriend's 19th birthday next Tuesday and knowing him very well makes it even more fun going present shopping (though it can damage your bank balance!). I decided that I wanted to take him somewhere awesome as one of his two birthday presents, so I began the Google search. Eventually I found something ideal and I marveled at the perfection. An exhibition in the London Film Museum, Covent Garden featuring most of the iconic vehicles from the James Bond film franchise. 1) He is a hardcore James Bond fan, 2) he is madly in love with the Aston Martin DB5, along with several other well known Bond cars. I don't think I could have found a better gift.

Pwetty flowers | teacups and tealights

I feel the need to share this beautiful bunch of flowers my colleagues gave me as a leaving present. I don't often receive bunches of flowers so on the rare occasion that I do I obsess over them and get really happy. That probably sounds quite strange but they are so lovely so here is a snap!
