The first guy was really funny. The second was an ozzie girl and she was crap. Not funny at all. The third guy started off funny but then went off on one about nothing and wasnt so funny. I would try it again tho as might have just turned out we went on a crappy night. It’s located on Leicester Square in a club called Storm. Quite a dingy place - looks a bit like a seedy club but was ok. Think we are going to try out the Comedy Store next so I’ll write on here once we have been.

 Tonight I cooked a chicken stir fry with mange tout, corn, bean sprouts and sweet and sour sauce and it was really tasty! I think that if you cook at home it is probably better for you than eating out all the time but I dont think i am actually loosing any weight! booo! not that I am fat or anything but I would like to be a bit more trim for my next holiday in September.

also, I think I am a pro at cooking fajitas as well! Wow, i am really into food at the moment. Going to try and make some more fun stuff - I have my own pizza making kit so need to try that soon too!

Marrakech is everything it lives up to be and more. bustling markets, mysterious snake charmers, tasty tajines and of course the famous and rather scary main square. We stayed in Riad Tizwa in the heart of the Medina - a ten minute walk to the sqaure. It was like an oasis of calm compared to the noise and crazyness of the outside world.

nothing has a set price so you barter for everything you buy - this can become rather tedious rather quickly, so try find a place to drink a couple of beers before doing so. also, a word of warning, most things are made in China - so you are probably not getting authenticity - unless you are buying a leather bag. you can tell the leather is from Morrocco because the tanneries are nearby and the leather has a strange smell to it - i dont think they treat it properly.

Beware of what you eat and whether its clean - I had a bit of stomach trouble for a couple of days but i tried hard not to let this ruin my stay.

 i would reccommend Marrakech to those who want to explore and see somewhere different from the norm. Definately not a relaxing holiday, but that is what makes it unique.

 I should really think about buying my own internet. But for a 23 year old girl in london on not such a great wage - i think i will just FREEBIE it for now…

 Luckily the tube strike is off too. It was meant to start today and end on Wednesday. But it has been called off. I don’t normally travel around London on the tube, I’m quite a lucky girl as I live a 10 min walk away from work so i don’t use the tube that often. i’m also quite central so tend to walk everywhere that i am going!

I’m staying in with my boyfriend tonight. He has been away at his mum’s house in the countryside for the last few days and tonight he is cooking me a couq au van (whatever that is). I think its like a massive stew. Yay, think i would rather be a girl in london who stays inside the house tonight. There’s plenty of other nights i can go out, and its not every day that i get dinner cooked for me. hooray.

Earlier on I typed in buyers associate into google and there isnt many website’s which tell you about the job. So I thought I would talk about my role in case anyone is interested to go into buying as a career. I worked in fashion buying for four weeks and decided it wasn’t for me. It’s a bit too fast paced and you don’t get to spend time with the product because the clothes are always in and out and thats it. Also, you will find that with fashion, the designers have a big input into what you should be buying. Therefore, if your quite creative, it’s a bit frustrating.

 I have moved into homeware buying and I have started off as a buyers associate. i have had quite a lot of retail experience coming from a merchandising background so I’m finding it quite easy to make the transition. I am really enjoying being a buying associate so far and each day is different. In short, no day is the same as the last. But the base of the role is that the suppliers will send samples in to you. You decide whether you like the sample and what you want changed. Then you will have a meeting with the supplier to discuss changes, then a red/silver/green (whatever you want to call it) will be sent with all the changes made. This is a pre production sample. Once this is approved, a gold seal will be sent. (this is a production sample). Its a really fun and exciting job and every girls dream to be buying stuff for a living!

I had a friend at uni and her birthday was on April Fools day which is quite funny, poor girl we did tease her sometimes but she managed to laugh it off! Apparently April Fools day started off in France and they try and pin paper fishes to people’s backs on april fools. I think Italy do it too, never seen it over here though!

I think people are too highly strung in London, could you imagine trying to pin a fish on one of those city types on the tube or something. that would serve them right, they always look so miserable, always dressed in black and have a cloud of stress surrounding them!

I was reading about the clocks changing and apparently Britain has only been doing it for less than a hundred years. It was some guy who suggested it because he liked to ride his horse but had to get up early as most of the daylight was in the morning! I think he was lonely because he never saw anyone else around on his rides so suggested to put the clocks forward in the summer! hehe. Its quite interesting to read about (here).

It’s going to start getting lots more fun in London now the clocks have gone forward - it will feel a lot nicer because i will be able to go out after work and stay out a bit later as it will be light. Hooray for the summer!

Guess what! I have today off work and I’m going to brighton for the weekend for a family members birthday. We are going to eat at a really lovely fish restaurant on Brighton Marina, its the best fish I have ever eaten. Then tomorrow I am going for drinks. Im looking forward to it should be good!

Just waiting for my boyfriend to get his stuff together cos he is coming too but he is taking ages and singing to himself. haha! he would be really embarassed if anyone heard his song!

 I think i ate some dodgy sausages this morning, my stomach was not happy at all!
