Did you all have a lovely long weekend (well, to those of you in the UK and US)?
Despite a promising start, I managed to ruin my four day weekend (Happy Birthday, your Majesty!) by somehow slipping a disk in my back at the start of said weekend.* As such, i’ve since been forced to remain as still as possible – which essentially involves lying in bed or being propped up in a snuggly cocoon on the couch and largely resembling this (though perhaps lacking Audrey’s natural grace and cheekbones…):
The Clever Boyfriend was thoroughly lovely – plying me with deep heat and pain killers, tucking me in and setting me up with enough episodes of Sex and the City and emergency comforts to keep me happy while he went off to play cricket. Despite still being largely immobile, I managed to somewhat salvage this afternoon by hobbling into a cab and taking myself off for a gorgeous rose-scented massage at Neal’s Yard Therapy Rooms (which I can’t recommend enough), a quick beauty fix at MAC, and dinner at Jamie Oliver’s Italian (more on that later) with the lovely boyfriend.
I promise to return to more scintillating adventures next weekend! Until then…
Love, Miss B xx

How did you manage to slip a disk whilst eating breakfast?! Too fast lifting of spoons…?
The rose-scented massage sounds amazing!
