A Tale of Two Cities

Tomorrow I head back to Edinburgh for my final semester of first year which is primarily full of exams. Once that small inconvenience is out of the way I intend to fall in love with Edinburgh all over again!
The photos show Manchester's Royal Exchange Theatre, one of my favourite places in Manchester. Admittedly, I've only seen one play there but I go in every time I'm in town. It's a beautiful building with the theatre in the centre, a class theatre in the round. Utterly fabulous. And the other is of Edinburgh from Calton Hill. Beautiful. Photo below was taken by my sister when she came to visit - me stood on Calton Hill...

Spring Has Sprung

...well technically spring sprung a while ago now. But I was in the garden and decided to pick a few flowers (between you and me they're on the way out already, but I thought I'd let them spend their last days inside with me!) I do love wild flowers and the such, not into the big fancy bouquets!
It's a sunny day today, I'm enjoying April this year...despite spending most of it inside, or so it feels.
Just a thought... when does this become weird? Twitter, facebook, google street view... it's all a bit crazy! Not that I mind, I had fun street viewing New York today looking forward to hopefully going there while I'm in America this summer.
I feel quite summery now, listening to High School Musical soundtrack and having just listened to Stevie Wonder's 'Sir Duke' - always to be played at full volume!

Easter

Revision. I know, the dreaded word :( But that seems to be how I've spent most of this holiday unfortunately. Cracking on with it fine though, almost enjoying it at times but don't tell anyone else.
Managed to find time for some fun though I must say... this has mostly involved going to church, drinking a lot of tea, drinking yummy lattes, chocolate, family time, a trip to Lyme Park with four of the most fabulous people ever :)
The photo is the beautiful Lyme Park which was used as Pemberley Hall (the home of the wonderful Mr Darcy) in the BBC 'Pride and Prejudice'.
Anyhoo, this was just a brief one before I go and watch a bit of Desperate Housewives with the wonderful ladies of Wisteria Lane. I do love them, though I don't envy their lives at all... except maybe Bree's baking skills! Missing the baking, will have to make myself a lemon drizzle cake or a scone or two soon! Yum yum yum...
