Fatties in the park!

I have started taking my fatties out to the park recently. My baby suggested it as he wanted me out of the house to get some fresh air, and take my fatty along while I'm at it. It is fun, but let me tell you, the first day was NOT easy!
My fatty is terrified of leaving the house (my cats are house cats) and I suffered the consequence of trying to change that. I only took him alone the first day as my sister was not around to bring her own fatty. He freaking peed on me while we were leaving the house! Grrr! Once we left (after a quick wash and change of clothes of course), he proceeded to whine his little heart out. As I have not been to the park in ages, no one knows me. So I suspect they secretly thought that I was catnapping him!
Once we arrived, he refused to budge even after all my nudging, pulling, dragging, and persuading. So I had to carry him all around the park. I'm going to have toned arms from lugging all 7 kilos of his fats around! Fatty was still not calmed by this and kept meowing pitifully. I had to coo at him, pet him, and basically treat him like a baby in an attempt to assure him. Everyone probably thought I was a younger version of a crazy cat lady!
The next day was MUCH better as my sister brought her fatty along. He still didn't budge though, and was still deathly afraid of people. He hissed and growled at any kid oblivious enough to come near him, all the while hiding under my legs. It's a good thing he recognizes me and wasn't hostile towards me in the slightest when I coddled him to prevent any sudden attacks on unsuspecting children.
Today (4th day) though, he made an improvement! He willingly walked and explored a little, with minimal prodding from me! Oh fatty, I'm so proud of you! *sniff sniff* Hahaha. I so sound like a cat lady. To be honest though, I can definitely see my sister and I being cat ladies if we didn't have our bfs.  I do love my cat almost like a baby! He's too cute and adorable to resist!
I can't wait to bring them out again tomorrow! Here's some photos, but apologies in advance for the low quality as they are uploaded from my phone. =)

Floral theme!

Have wanted this top awhile now, and finally got it really cheap a few days ago from Selfridges of all places! This shows that keeping it in your head positively really works!

What you have all been waiting for - London Part 1

Yes, I know not really. Just wanted to put that as the title for the fun of it. It is delayed because there was a problem with the internet. Can't edit a post without internet now, can I? Ok, enough reasons. I went to London 2 weeks in a row! Yes!!! The first was to go to Alton Towers. Don't shoot me! I know it's actually nearer to where I stay than London, so it was totally pointless going to London, to come all the way back to get to Alton Towers. But I didn't check the location before hand and left it to my friends which somehow thought that it was near London. Well, what's done is done. No point fretting.

Alton Towers was awesome! Besides the rides having long queues (typical), and the fast track tickets being expensive (obviously) it was almost perfect! They had a drinks promo where you buy a drink container for £5 and you can top it up with soft drinks at any drink station. So we totally used and abused it! It was a really really sunny and hot day, which was great! I LOVE THE SUN!!! Too bad some rides were closed, and apparently we missed the 2 most awesome rides ever - Thirteen and Air!!! When we found out, we were like what?!?!?! Oh well. It was still fun, and that's all that matters! I even got a picture of myself on a ride because I actually looked half decent in it! Not posting it because it is only half decent!


Ching Yee and I on the train to London!
All ready to set out to Alton Towers!

   
I'm a Ring Doughnut Monster!!! Our breakfast.

Red red water! (I know it looks pink, but it's actually red like Ribena!)
Us with our fast track passes!

Us camwhoring with it






Alton Towers is actually really beautiful, with scenic parks and a gigantic lake. We didn't have as much time as we would have liked to spend, so we only got to camwhore in the park just before we went back.

Heart shaped hedge frame! This definitely calls for some camwhore shots!

The big lake near the entrance








The hedge actually has a heart shaped cut out

Beautiful beautiful flower garden. This picture does it no justice.

Happy in the sun!

Self-shot group shot!

The most famous ride in Alton Towers has got to be Oblivion. This is one which features a 90° vertical drop! It looks absolutely horrifying!!! Surprisingly, I didn't find it all that scary once I got over it. It's scary because of the anticipation and the nervousness, especially when they pause for a few seconds at the precipice! We went for the newest ride, Nemesis, twice! That's the ride that I got my picture from. I bought my picture from the first round, but unluckily for me the picture from the second round turned out nicer. Hmph!

For dinner that night, KH brought us to Albion. YUM!!! Didn't have much pictures because my phone died. =( Not enough battery! Should either find a portable charger, or get a spare battery. The battery seriously runs out waaayy too fast when I really need it!

KH's pork crackle. Didn't really like this. Too hard! But he seemed to like it well enough.

Elderflower cocktail! Beginning to fall in love with elderflower!

Duck Scotch Egg. Mmmm....

Seriously can't remember what the name of this dish is, but it is rice with fish bits served with mango chutney. Super yummy!


Our after hours activity that night was Heaven, the most famous gay club in London!!! It was a fun and eventful night, that's all I'm gonna say. Haha. Though, I realized my dancing stamina has decreased. =(

Can't see clearly, but Paloma (sounds awfully like pomelo!) Fay performed that night!


Do you think any of us are gay or bi?

We met up with the pretty girls of P108 for lunch at OXO Tower the next day. It was almost a disaster because we got lost and ended up walking in rounds for an hour!!! One of them came by herself so she was left waiting for us at the restaurant. Not sure what was wrong with Google Maps at that time!!! The food was absolutely delicious, though it exceeded our expected price by a LOT!

Salmon starter
Main Course - Lamb! Most awesome lamb ever!

KH's monkfish
Everyone's food. The rest had cod!


What dessert most of the people had - Mousse with sorbet
Panna Cotta with rhubarb
My dessert! Elderflower posse, Victoria sponge and sorbet! Was a tad too sour though.

Had Starbucks afterwards during Happy Hour. Mocha Choc Chip Frapp at half price! =)
That's the end of London Part 1! We caught the train back and that's it! Part 2 will probably take ages because...
 MY MUM IS COMING TO UK ON TUESDAY!!! I AM SO EXCITED!!!

Camwhoring while waiting for the other train to come

See? Legit reason for not blogging. I'm going back to Malaysia soon, so might blog when I'm there! =)
