back

Not a lot has changed, but I miss blogging. So I'm back and we'll see for how long. Apologies in advance for long-winded, self-absorbed posts about nothing. But I do hope that you like my new camera's pictures!

upset without a bicycle

because I live in England I do not have my bicycle yet. That's the only reason for it as their customer service is SOOOO BAD that I ordered a bike on 18 April and still have yet to see it. In fact I called today to find out that actually it won't arrive until 11 July because no one placed the bike to me.

Excuse me? I ordered it eight weeks ago through AN APPROVED cyclescheme partner.

(I have a feeling that there was probably an order in mid april but they sold the bike that was supposed to be mine). I just want to ride with my basket to work during the summer. Apparently that was too much to ask. Clearly upset but nothing I can do.... (until I have my bike that is...)

The above is my one day dream bike - A pashley princess. It was supposed to be a reality in three weeks.......... Image via

I wish I had my bicycle

I'm still waiting for my beautiful bicycle to whisk me around town. With the tube strike for the past 24 hours (another 24 to go) - getting to work was horrendous. Traffic, angry tube commuters on my bus and the 'extra services' system fell flat on its face.

So time to put a smile on mine.. with this lovely diagram about the benefits of cycling (found through frolic!)

classically brit

Emma watson (from another british staple - Harry Potter) has recently signed on to be the new face of burberry. good call as she looks amazing.. and I actually am tempted to buy a classically brit bag.. (but I want the trench coat below more)
