Shitty cold Inn

Well! What was supposed to be a lovely weekend started out as an utter disaster! Got up early ish Friday (had the day off work) and packed for an overnight stay in Sheffield. Carl picked me up at about 1 and we set off to Medowhall. Wandered round there for a couple of hours, checking out the posh shops, Hugo, Lacoste, all the ones we cant afford!! Searched high and low for some work trousers, and ended up getting some from topshop (which I could of done in Mansfield) 28 bastard pound!!! I can’t believe it! I tried loads on though and no where did any that fit me.. Even the 6’s in Miss Selfridge were too big, but these from topshop are an 8 so I feel quite happy about that.

Left medowhall about 4.30 and drove to the holiday inn where we were spending the night, a nice romantic evening away, or so we thought! As soon as we got up to the room it was FREEZING! We put the radiator up high and sat shivering watching neighbours. Decided to order some tea from room service purely for the novelty factor than anything else, and about 6.15 our tea arrived. Consisting of a double beef-burger and chips (each) cheese & crackers for Carl and cheesecake for me. Well first bite into the burger and I noticed that it was in fact rather spicy!! (It failed to mention this on the menu) I don’t eat spicy food and neither does Carl so we ended up feasting on the burger cob and chips. Wank! The cheesecake was the smallest bit of trash imaginable and the cream crackers were a funny flavour (great). We settled down to watch a bit more TV and within minutes I started to feel unwell. Great, my tummy was bubbling and id got pains… and within an hour Carl wasn’t feeling so great either. I got worse and worse, the pains getting so bad I didn’t even want carls leg resting on mine (I don’t like to be touched when im ill). And that was it for the rest of the night!! The nice romantic evening we had planned was horrible.. And you know the best part??? We paid £124 for the room including breakfast which we didn’t even want in the morning (after still not feeling great).

What a waste.. I could cry! That would of brought me a DS or at least some nice shoes. Im gutted.. and neither of is are complainers so we never said anything to the staff.

Oh and im almost ashamed to say that the tea, including a pint of coke cost an amazing £36.50. ha ha laughable isn’t it? And the room was tiny!

Been into town this afternoon with Carl and brought him his xmas present a coat from collections.. Supposed to be £100 but got it for £90 cause we know the bloke, so looks like im getting my DS after all! The coat looks lush on too! (yum)



Also brought some hair dye… dark brown instead of medium brown, god I live dangerously don’t I?
