So after I travelled down to see my girl this time, as she'd come to mine the time before (undocumented, as she was supposed to do it) it was a late start for me, but it was the first time I was going to her house.... Last time I went to her place when she was working, but she's moved home now.
26th Oct, Saturday
We were supposed to go to a fireworks display that night, but the weather was too bad for it to go ahead. This meant we had a night relaxing at hers. This happened for the Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday with popping to the stables interspersed between because of the horrendous weather.
30th Oct, Wednesday
This was the day that we had planned to go to London, so we were up early and ready. As we had spoken about where we wanted to go, my girl being the huge planner that she is decided to make a list and with the tube stations and destinations.This came in handy a few times, but by looking at it once or twice we knew roughly where to go.
With the help on google maps we managed to find Primrose Hill which was our first destination.
After going to Primrose Hill, which we went to because of our favourite LGBT film - Imagine Me and You. The park was beautiful, and as we turned up it got so much warmer, as we left my girl saw these signs and got so excited....
I'm actually surprised that she didn't take pictures of the enclosures that we could see without going in.
From Primrose Hill to Camden Town. Both if us had always wanted to go and I had never been before so this was the perfect moment, as it was literally a ten minute walk from where we were.
HARRODS!!
It was our first time there and we were both in awe of the scale and grandness of it. Levi even look pictures of the lift floor. Even though she was highly amused by the pooches and animal things, I was in heaven on the technology floor - especially when it came to the cameras (it was like porn for a media student, I've even picked out my dream camera.)
From HARRODS we went to Candy Bar, which because it was 4pm was shut so decided to head to Hummingbird Bakery. This was partly because I had promised her brother and sister a cupcake and because it had been about a year since I had been and they do my favourite cupcakes. If you ever go to London, I highly recommend it! I normally go to the one in Soho because it's near to Candy and a lot of places I love but there are other locations.
From there we started to walk down Shaftsbury Avenue, and to anyone that knows anything about west end theatre they will know that that's what I like to call "the hub" for most shows. As we were walking we spotted some oddly dress people talking to people outside what seemed to be a stage door. We kept walking thinking nothing of it, until we saw the front of the theatre. Guess what the production was?

Yes, it was Les Miserables!
Cue us fangirling as a few of you may know on our first date we went to the cinema and watched Les Miserables, so this is sort of our thing. Les Miserables is our movie and the songs mean so much to us.
We asked for photos but they had to go back in and weren't allowed to take photos at the stage door until after the show and they were only on the intermission.
Keep on walking down Shaftsbury Avenue and you will see Thriller and the Lotus shop.
Then we ended up walking to Leicster square, as we were due to meet our friends for tea at Planet Hollywood, but we were early so we had a walk around M&M world.
By the time we got to Planet Hollywood we would have had to wait an hour at least for a table so we ended up in China town and had a Chinese buffet. At the buffet Levi tried to eat with chopsticks but failed. It was pretty funny trying to watch her, I know I can't do it so I didn't even try.
After eating, we realised we wouldn't get to the train in time so ended up going to Embankment. It's sort of a tradition for us now!
Then that was the end of London.
31st October, Thursday.
HALLOWEEN!
We ended up going out on Thursday, just to a local town for some shopping... But we ended up in Lush again! We love lush, and lush loves us.... After all we always spend money in there and this time was no exception.
When we got back to hers, her younger brother and sister were going Trick or Treating, so we went with them even though it was freezing. It was the first time I've really been introduced to any of her mums friends... And I was called her "girlfriend"... It may seem like a very small thing to some but it was huge for us and I felt so amazing!
1st November, Friday
On Friday we met Dan & Els at Bluewater. It was lovely to see them again and have Pizza Hut!
Mmm, cookie dough!
Then when they left to go home we hung around for a bit to shop. Which meant we were silly.
And Levi brought a build a bear called STRAWBERRY!
The clothes on the left were what we brought the ones one the right were given to her by Levi's little sister! So now she has PJs :)
2nd November, Saturday
We had originally planned to go to a fireworks display, but Levi's mums friend was having a birthday meal so we went there instead. Honestly I felt so awkward at the start but that didn't last. It was a really fun night, and it was our fourth meal out :)
London = Chinese buffet
Kent = around the world buffet
Bluewater = pizza hut buffetKent = Indian meal
Yes, we are fatties!
.....
The next few days were uneventful until it came to Tuesday...
5th November, Tuesday
I was supposed to go home this day but as there was a bad storm a few days before so a tree fell on the tracks so I couldn't get home which meant I couldn't get home and I was panicking as I has to film the next day. But Levi was happy, and I was too because it meant we could have a little longer together.
6th November, Wednesday
We booked a ticket for me to go back for Thursday, because even though there we could've arrange one back fir that day we wanted to go to our first fireworks display together. It had been ten years since I last went to a display with anyone, for personal reasons and it honestly overwhelmed me. I was so thankful that my girl was there :D
And then came thuday. Going home day :(
