Almost Friday! :-)

So we're here again, Thursday, almost Friday! ;-) I am excited, because Bear is taking the afternoon off (again) on Friday. This time because we are going to away Oxford to stay for the night. We are thinking that this might possibly be our last chance to go away before Sean's arrival.

We are leaving London around mid-day to avoid any possible traffic, and will be staying at the Malmaison Hotel that has been recommended to us.

It is a boutique hotel, in a castle building, and it was until as recently as 1996 a fully functioning prison. Since then it has been the set of films such as the Italian Job and the TV series Bad Girls, before getting its ultra-luxurious makeover. I really can't wait to go there, especially since I haven't been to Oxford before.

On our way back, we plan to stop off at Bicester Village, which is a outlet shopping centre selling designer clothes and accessories, with everything from Ralph Lauren to Versace etc. I hoping to find a nappy bag for the pram.
