Don't grow up kids, it's a trap!

Lil Madam entertaining herself on Portland Place as we were waiting outside the school for Sean to finish. Never a dull moment lol!  

Maison Michel hat for sale

Selling my MM straw hat in size M for £250.00, as it's unfortunately a wee bit small for me. Very good condition as it's only used a handful of times. This particular model (Charles) and colour is sold out everywhere. Bought for £470 from Maison Michel Paris store, comes with original papers and box - I'll pay for the postage. Comment or tweet me.

Run for your life!

Just before Ibiza I decided to take up running again (after a 2 year break). So far I've been out  6-7 times, most recently today. It's been pretty tough I must admit, far worse than I remember, with my chest on fire and very heavy breathing! 

Hoping it's gonna get easier very soon, but I'm definitely less fit these days and carry at least 2 kg more than back then, so let's watch this space. I'm only managing 3 kilometres without stopping, so it's not very impressive. The realistic goal I've set myself is 5k. 

Have to post scenes from the gorgeous early morning runs here in central London and Regents Park. I usually go out 7am when only a few intrepid joggers are out and very little traffic - so serene, and best time to be out there working up a sweat!

Life lately

Just how tall for a four year old? Definitely taking after Daddy!
