Refurbishment

3rd Apr, 2009 |

We have finally just finished refurbishing all our flats to date. I think this is great because it means that each flat has all commodities and every need can be accomodated. We are now just putting in a couple of the final touches to make the place perfect such as fragrance lamps and potted plants. We are still in two minds about the plants whether to go with fresh or plastic. The nice bit about plastic is they always look perfect but nothing quite beats real plants but they do become harder to maintain!

Sales end!!

24th Jan, 2009 |

Sales end in under a week. This is good and bad. Bad because all the prices go up but good because they want to get rid of any remaining stock and people are spent out. So now is the time where you can find a truely great bargain. All stock is out including that forgotten amazing dress that was £100 but is now on sale for under a tenner!!

What are you waiting for?

Sky

12th Jan, 2009 |

I know it that you cannot always have your cake and eat it. I mean wouldn’t it be great if we could go to every event that we wanted to attend? But the reality is that we couldn’t even if we wanted to (unless we were extremely lucky that is). Often something might be recorded and then televised, but it is never as nice as being there at the moment. I think that the next best option is live event video streaming. I think Sky often do a pretty good job of this on their sports channels. It is a premium service but at least one that is available.

And for your comfort, most of our apartments come with sky (or it can be provided on request).

Boxing Day

26th Dec, 2008 |

Boxing Day has many traditions. Most commonly know for:-

  • Gift Giving (boxed) by employers /employees
  • Staff taking left overs in a box home after the Christmas Celebrations
  • Churches counting their boxes with Money to spread to the poor
  • Capturing of a wren into a box to ask for a good harvest

It has changed over the years and kids today know it as a day to count their money save through the year (plus their Christmas bonuses) followed by a spending spree in the Sales!! In other words after the heavy spending of Christmas, shops reduce their prices so that you cannot resist their sales.

Here in London sales can be very stressful. It is not unheard of that people camp outside NEXT so when it opens at 4am on boxing day, they are the first in to grab the best goodies!! However, if you want to avoid the rush, you can actually bet the queues and mad rush by shopping online.

Personally to me…. it is a time to Shop! Shop! Shop!

Guy Fawkes – Bon Fire Night

5th Nov, 2008 |

Guy Fawkes was a member of a Roman Catholic group who planned to blow up parliament to dissolve the regime. As a result we celebrate the 5th November as Bon Fire Night. Many Places through huge firework displays and Theme Parks often have special nights.

Children often dress up a “guy” and will ask for a penny for the guy. It is traditional to give them some money.

Much has been done to celebrate this day including having verses written. The most popular perhaps being:-

“Remember, remember the fifth of November,
The gunpowder, treason and plot,
I see no reason
Why gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot.”
