161008 - 11 Things

Compassionately left to stand?

I was lucky enough to be tagged by the lovely ladies over at we wear things for the 11 Things Tag, which I thought would be nice to share with all of you :)

1. Clothes Shop - anywhere really, I always have a specific item and look in mind, and I will literally walk in and out of every store to find it. However I usually get the 'feel' for a men's section by just walking in, so often end up turning around and walking straight back out!

2. Furniture Shop - antique and secondhand shops, I am still on the lookout for the perfectly worn in brown leather sofa. I have a dislike for matching furniture and 3 piece sofa suites, I like my furniture to have a mix of function and character, rather than simply 'fitting in' with a colour scheme or design theme.

3. Sweet - lollipops and anything strawberry!

4. City - 'maybe it's because I'm a Londoner, that I love London town'. Otherwise Damascus in Syria, one of the oldest continually lived in cities in the world. It is stunningly beautiful and has a wonderful and illustrious history, which is visible in the 1km long market set up in Roman ruins, lying opposite a medieval Islamic palace and next to a 19th Century French fortress!

5. Drink - tea (two sugars please), of any kind but especially proper South Asian chai.

6. Music



7. TV Series - too many to name, seriously!

8. Film - Chocolat or Spy Game.

9. Workout - running, especially early mornings. I love running when most people are still sleeping, that time of day is magical, the air feels wonderful even in the inner city!

10. Pastries - gingerbread, apple crumble with cream, and breakfast croissants.

11. Coffee - double chocolate latte with a shot of vanilla and extra cream.

And because I enjoyed this tag I shall be tagging every single person to read this post...yes, that includes you dear.
