📸 Taking a moment away from the Apple Event to snap the view over my shoulder. I love the view down the river at this time in the evening.
And my iPhone 15 Pro captures it just fine. No need to upgrade, right?
📸 Settling in at home to watch the Apple event.
📱 Preoccupied with today’s Apple announcements.
👉🏻 Apple event expectations. I’m hoping to spend absolutely nothing (none of my gadgets need upgrading) and just get excited about the OS updates.
🍿 Saw ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ tonight and it was a riot. Again, Michael Keaton is just the best. Excellent use of practical effects and the music is the cherry on top.
📘 Dipping my toe back into bullet journalling.
👉🏻 Paper, again
📸 Another grey day here in London
💻 A summary of what I did, thought and experienced this week:
📸 This beauty sailed past my apartment yesterday afternoon. The Thames never disappoints. Always something to see and enjoy.
🦮 I got to spend yesterday afternoon with these lovely girls. The best behaved, most affectionate dogs I know. There’s nothing quite like a Labrador snuggling up against your legs to go to sleep. Beautiful creatures.
⚡️🌩️⛈️ Ooof. That’s some impressive thunder and lightning over London right now. 😬 A little too close to home here on the 35th floor.
📺 In preparation for tomorrow’s trip to the cinema to watch the sequel, I watched the original Beetlejuice last night. Seeing it for the first time in at least a decade was quite the experience!
📺 My partner and I settled in to watch the first episode of Slow Horses S4 last night. And we barely spoke once, except to declare our undying love for Kristin Scott Thomas. I would watch anything she’s in.
Can’t wait for episode two next week. It’s the very definition of ‘appointment tv’.
📸 I snapped this out the window of my flight from Dublin to London on Wednesday. At the time, I thought the clouds looked impressive and a little weird. But that may have been my jet-lag addled brain seeing what wasn’t actually there…
✈️ I arrived back from Singapore on Monday morning, but I still feel like someone has injected sludge into my brain. Even after getting an incredible night’s sleep last night, I woke up this morning feeling like I’d run a marathon overnight.
Jet lag hits hard when you’re older… 🤣
✈️ My first day back at work since our break in Singapore. And so of course I’ve been wide awake since 3am, and now find myself in London City Airport, about to fly to Dublin for work.
Who manages my schedule?!??!
Oh. Right. 😳
✈️ There’s no experience more likely to bring my holiday vibes crashing to earth than arriving at the soul-destroying pit that is Heathrow Airport.
✈️ Arrived in Helsinki 45mins early after a super flight with Finnair. Now it’s time for a much neededed shower in the Finnair lounge, followed by all the coffee… ☕️
✈️ All boarded and settled in. Leaving Singapore shortly and heading for Helsinki with Finnair.
Looking forward toward to another lovely, relaxing flight with one of my favourite airlines. First glass of champagne in hand 🥂 See you on the other side.
📸 Enjoying some hospitality in the BA lounge at Singapore Airport. I’ve been inhaling the chicken curry and supping generously at the champagne bar. It woud be rude not to partake.
📸 Obligatory pic of the waterfall in The Jewel, Changi Airport, Singapore. I love this airport so much!
📸 A final selfie at the doors of the hotel as we wait on our taxi to the airport. And a wonderful goodbye from the hotel staff as we checked out. They even booked and paid for our taxi!
📸 Final poolside pic before we finish packing and head to Changi Airport.
📸 Enjoying my last breakfast in this hotel, while taking in the views over Singapore.
Next up: packing. We fly back to London (via Helsinki) this evening. But I’m also hoping to squeeze in a couple of hours by the pool before we check out.
☀️ Back by the hotel pool, waiting for my post-shopping beer.
