- amazing weather - serious heatwavey stuff of the kind that has fat English people out burning themselves into lobsters because they cannot believe their good fortune
- walks in the countryside with lovely people - who ironically all managed to burn themselves in manner detailed above (minus the obesity). Embarrassing.
- G&T and gluten-free burgers and chips in country pubs
- Medsoc
- gluten free sticky toffee pudding at midnight (recipe will probably follow when I get it off George - beware!!! is seriously addictive)
- cupcakes
- crap Tom Cruise films like Cocktail - and much better films like Amelie
- friends popping in for cups of tea/wine/Pimms
- Pimms and strawberries, dahling
- Edinburgh city and hat shops and Chocolate Soup
- cartwheels - evidence of Minti's expertise below:
- Belle and Herbs - and their caramelised onion and goatscheeeeeese omelette - and the Belle and Herbs special smoothie
- the fact that the G injections weren't so bad this time - had them each evening at about 9 and must have slept through any backachey side effects
- swimming pools and flatmates who teach you a version of the front crawl where you don't swallow half the pool
- Minti's pasta puttanesca
- old friends and acquaintances emailing me
- cinema trip with Gaita to see creepy-depressing-yet-strangely-beautiful Swedish vampire film
- the fact Jenny had a camera so could put pics up to make a respectable length blog entry instead of "Awesome weekend. Tired, going to bed, ciao ciao."
Will let you all know how chemoschmemo #5 gets on - and the severity of my usual complement of side effects. Off to bed soonish.....
