The concert of the year

The gates at Hyde park was open at 12pm and the concert starts at 2pm. Saw on the news that there were people queuing overnight but realised we will be too tired the next day if we do that so we decided to be there early the next day. We were there at about half ten in the morning but already there were mountains of people!!
Squeezing through........

When we finally got in, we went straight to the souvenir store and grabs some T-shirts before finding ourselves a great spot. Didn't really fancy squeezing up front with no where to sit so we grab on this plot of land and mark our territories by spreading our things wide! (hehe!)


2 brave souls not knowing what they got themselves into with the concert from 2pm to 11pm (9 hours!!), a difficult route to the toilet and the adventure of finding back your location from the toilet break...


We can see the artist on the stage from our location but they looked very small so most of the time, we rely on the big screen in front and at the back of us.



Brad Pitt!


Towards the end of the concert, I was getting very restless and tired... Fortunately, Robbie William & The Who were there to liven things up (PS : Those who don't know The Who, their songs are the theme for CSI). Although I'm not a fan of them, I must say that they were one of the best artist of the day. Great songs and atmosphere!!

We stayed until about 11pm and decided to go before the concert ended to avoid the crowd. The road outside Hyde Park was closed and no transport was available so we walked home. Tired but enjoyable day, all in the name of Live 8

Summer sale
This might be my last summer sale shopping here. I could be shopping with you gals in Orchard Road next year this time!!! How I miss shopping at Orchard Road with friends (think that my hobby!!)

Went shopping in Cambridge yesterday and bought another bag from GAP!!! This one cost me 9.90 pounds (same price as the one I bought in London) Can't decide which one to keep. So can everyone leave me a comment and let me know which one shall I keep.

PS : Sam said that I can keep both if I want to but I don't need TWO Gap bag, do I??



Bought in Cambridge. I wanted this for quite sometime and now the price had finally dropped to 9.90 pounds.


Bought in London. Pretty design and just the bag for summer.

Shall I buy??

I'm crap at parking esp with our big car (Sam will say that ours is not a big car). Ok, it's big for me. Just me!!!

Thinking of whether to buy the parking sensor from Halford. Costing 99 pounds but I will have a better piece of mind.

Let see how I get on with my learning to drive in the car with Sam this weekend... Got a feeling he sure going to shout at me one...

London Blast

It's been all over the news today about the incident in London.

Hope that's the end of bombing and everything is back to normal soon.

Finally the day had come

I pass my driving test!!

Had the test this morning at 7.20am (the first test of the day) and I was the only candidate. The test was about 35 to 40 mins and at 7.46am, I knew I was doing well and kept telling myself (in my head) not to screw up this time. Pleased to say that at the end of the test, the tester told me I passed (with only 4 minors)!! The best result I had.

You bet I will be smiling all day....:)

Congratulations May, you are...
