slow day

Apologies to those of you who are a squeamish about snails. I snapped these little guys on Saturday, when the rain finally stopped, as I thought their shells were pretty cool. When did snail shells get so jazzy? You'd have thought that owning a near-on red shell was tantamount to wearing a sign saying "come and get me birds, I'd make a tasty lunch!" But no, the garden was full of these stripy snails, quite clearly laughing in the face of possible digestion.

Anyhoo, I think the snails perfectly illustrate the pace and excitement levels of my Saturday - I didn't even leave the house. The appalling weather was mostly to blame but actually it was the perfect excuse to get on with some much needed wedding prep - some of it a little tedious (measuring tablecloths), some of it v.fun (making paper flowers). On sunny Sunday I took a trip to Forest Hill to see my dressmaker for a second fitting - dear lord, I am SO excited, I cannot wait to wear that dress :)

Along with watching rather too much crap TV, a couple of films and spending some quality time with Moriaty - that basically sums up my weekend. I hope yours was more eventful - what did you get up to?
