but I am also in London this weekend for the DRINK CAKE TOUR 2012.
You may recall last year’s edition, which was in Manchester.
There will be drink. And cake. And touring. And laughing and gabbing and secret santaing and (quite possibly) petty theft…
The Ladies of Forty Towers Are Hitting London.
And we are as excited as school girls. 🙂
If you follow my Twitter Feed you’ll have seen me mention this a few times. What is it, you ask?
It’s the women I know from MN who are part of the thread known as Forty Towers. We are all over forty. Most of us have had babies after forty, but not all. We all do have children of some sort, however!
Every 6 months or so we get together. I missed the last one, in London, due to finances, but was at the first one in Manchester.
This one is also in Manchester and I didn’t think I’d be able to go.
Then Simon said ‘You just arranged this entire move, including finding us a house and movers. Go to Manchester.’
So tomorrow at 0615 my taxi arrives to take me to the airport and whisk me off to Manchester for the night.
There will be DRINK! and CAKE! and laughs and giggles and gossip and jokes and Christmas Markets and DRINK! and CAKE!
All over the UK 8 (I think it’s 8…) forty plus women are already giggling like school girls in excitement. Both to see each other (it’s been a hell of a year, all the way around) and to have a night off from kids and partners and work and guilt about DRINK! and CAKE!
So off to Manchester I head.
DRINK! CAKE!
