Homebird

We were at this gig in the Mandela hall last year and I just came across a video that was taken at it, it's one of my favourite Foy Vance songs and I loved it when he sang it here then the crowd took over! It's not a great recording but I just love this...

February so far...

So Scotty and I are back from Southampton and its back to work and back to the usual routine! We had a great time away, our hotel was amazing, although I can't say the same for the weather! We were away for 3 nights and we got 4 full days with the way the flights worked out which was great. Scott showed me round, we went to see the St. Mary's football stadium, I got to see his old room in the academy guesthouse where he lived for a few years and I got to see his photo up on the wall alongside some guys who are now famous footballers (truthfully the only one i knew was Theo Walcott!). Southampton holds a very special place in Scott's heart as his time there was a big part of his life for years, so it was special to me that he wanted to take me there to share some of that with me. It was also great just to spend some proper time together on our own.

Then it was Valentines day on Saturday. To be honest I don't get overly carried away on Valentines day, i hold the same view as quite alot of people that it shouldn't just be on one day that we show our love for eachother, but that's just me! I don't really do presents, as long as I get a card i'm a happy bunny. We did head out for a meal though and we had planned to go to the cinema aswell to see The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, but the show we had booked for had been cancelled due to a technical fault. However the meal was gorgeous, we went to Dante's Italian Bistro in Victoria Square. It is such a lovely little place and the food was amazing, so i would recommend there!

Finally, for those who have been reading about my frustrations with uni and my exam which I sat on 12th January...i passed! So I now have my degree and I am finally set to graduate in the summer! So all round it has been a pretty great February so far...

Love love love!
