We went to Oxford Street Topshop and had our hair done at the Hershesons blowdry bar. I had the Carlam and Ness went for the Ragabilly. They used tons of hairspray on us and our hair felt all crusty and quite painful but we looked gorgeous so it was worth it. Ness was a bit worried she looked like Jedward though!
Then we had our nails done at Wah. I had the strawberry design and Ness had the tartan. We were very pleased with them.
We went to the Palladium to see Wizard of Oz. I paid £1 for some special binoculars. Toto stole the show. Ness liked the Winkies' chant: O-ee-yah! Eoh-ah! Ness changed the words of one of the songs to "the witch had a vaginal itch" - how rude!
We had afternoon tea at the Sanderson hotel. It was a mad hatters tea party and we began with rainbow coloured sandwiches made with saffron bread, spinach bread and beetroot bread. Then a pink chocolate heart with mousse inside. Next we were instructed to drink a little potion in 3 sips to get the flavours of apple pie, lemon curd and toffee. Ness had her choc coffee cake but I skipped mine. Then we had a blueberry lollipop which was meant to go from hot to cold but didn't work for us. And a hazelnut praline ice-cream lollipop with popping candy. We couldn't eat all our scones as well because we were feeling a bit sick by this point!
We checked in at our hotel - the Astor Court. And we were very impressed because it had 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, sofa and armchairs. We weren't expecting such luxury!
As the evening progressed we started feeling a bit peckish so Ness ordered me and Mum to go and find some takeaway and bring it back to her. We asked a road sweeper man if there were any fish and chip shops nearby and he directed us to Efes which was packed with big blokes ordering kebabs. We got a kebab and chips to share and took it back to the hotel to eat whilst watching the Apprentice. Lovely!
