It's past midnight. The sun has been up for the longest time this year. It's downhill now until next summer. Winter wardrobes will soon be back out again. I'm still fat. But...
I get to go into the Houses of Parliament today!!!
For a tour a tea on the terrace. Good times.
Will most certainly be posting on here tomorrow night. I promise! But only if you all get me at least one more reader each. Oh and leave some nice comments for me to read? I don't ask much.
I didn't see this coming a year ago!

The Duchess @ Tesco
Most of know that it'd be highly unlikely to see the Duchess of Cambridge amongst the aisles of your local Tesco. Waitrose is apparently more her bag. (I tried skipping with the trolley like she did, didn't look good.) But after the Reiss dress she wore to meet the Obamas on a state visit sold out instantly, Tesco said they would be producing a replica. Well it's a dress and it's beige. That's all. But it's still pretty.
The dress was reported to be going on sale June 13th but after checking online numerous times during the day and popping to the store during my lunch break, it was no where to be seen. Imagine my delight that a quick check on clothingattesco tonight and it's there! Still available. In a 12. So I've ordered it. In order to fit into this dress I'm going to have to lose 4" from my bust, 4" from my waist and a couple from my hips. It's going to be tough and I'll have to be incredibly disciplined but I'm determined to fit into this dress. Whether it's Christmas this year or something next year. I don't care. I haven't been too well recently and am hoping this will mean I can shed a few pounds easily. So if anyone knows the best non surgical way to lose inches from your chest, let me know. I'll try most things.

Royal Wedding Mugs
What's that I hear you say? The Wedding was in April? I know that. But I'm a rubbish daughter. I promised to get my father a mug commemorating the event. Have I given this to him yet? No. His birthday is Tuesday and then it's Father's day here in the UK on Sunday. This is such a nightmare every year. It only really worked when we got him a sat nav one year for a holiday in Scotland and for another we got him tickets to Gardeners World Live. He keeps bringing up the fact he's seen no mug from me everytime I go round there. So it's time I tried to find one. I've seen one in a china shop in Mansfield for £4.50 (bargain) and a quick Google search shows you can pay a lot more for ones that barely even have a picture of Wills and K Middy. Rubbish.
Exhibit A -

Royal Wedding Wessex Commemorative Mug£16
The silhouettes are quite sweet, but not very romantic. Not a winner. Sorry Wessex.

Kate & William Royal Wedding Souvenir Fine China Ceramic Mug
Sorry Elgate, this looks like you've taken it from the St Andrew Yearbook. No. Just no. Prince William looks like Ed Milliband.

Just Prince William apparently? It's cute but still doesn't seem to fit in with all those seen in Charity shops or your Grans china cupboard.
Please someone, find me an official looking mug. I will pay you in cookies.
Thanks, something like this one
