This weekend

We were lucky enough to crack an invite to go to Switzerland for a Bank Holiday weekend of hiking, red wine and fireplace cuddles. Sadly, with us having to wait until the very last minute to hear whether or not I’d be lucky enough to be granted a Schengen visa, our flights to Zurich now are so expensive that we’ve decided not to go – seriously, it was going to cost more than it will cost us to fly back to New York for a week of Big Apple fun! So here we are, on a Thursday afternoon, with very little planned for a long weekend. John hasn’t been home for four weekends in a row, so he’s looking forward to doing as little as possible. I figured that it may well be time to give it a final push and try to get our living room sorted. With Annie’s help I found these rather darling pouffes which I might go check out this weekend as an extra seating solution.
We’ve also taken the plunge and ordered an Eames chair for the living room – perfect solution to our current sofa-not-large-enough-for-two-tall-people-to-lie-on situation. John will have his very own reclining chair and I get to keep the sofa all for myself! I’ll share some photos of the apartment soon – I promise.

On Saturday we have tickets to go to the LED Festival (London Electronic Dance) – yes, yes, I know. But we mainly bought it because current hot SA act Die Antwoord are performing and after rave reviews of what they did in New York, we’ve been so keen to experience it for ourselves!
I will no doubt be singing ‘A-hee-haaa-hee-jaai, I am your butterrrrfly, I need your protekshion, need your protekshion’. Can’t wait!
