I headed straight to The Macdonald Hotel for a luxury pedicure! I recently entered a competition on Manchester Confidential to win an over night stay at the hotel and unlimited use of the spa. Sadly I didn't win but entrants were given 50% off treatments for the whole of August. A perfect way to start my week.
It was such a treat, an hour of being pampered. I chose ruby red nail polish and my typically not-so-pretty feet now look beautiful! The red goes splendidly with my black Bertie sandals and padding bare foot around our flat makes me happy.
I have been carefully planning our week off and after a quick trip to Grimsby to visit my dentist and an oh-my-god grey, meant to be white, filling later I'm back in Manchester, wine in hand with dinner in the oven. The boyfriend is out with 12 friends from Lancaster, his home town. Apparently having a lads night out on our week off is ok because its the weekend and only the week days count as actual annual leave! Hmm.
Our plans include Coco Before Chanel and too much popcorn, visiting my friend/adopted big sister and her son at her gorgeous hotel in Hebden Bridge, a day out in Windermere, eating too much in EastzEast, testing The Chocolate Cafe's hot chocolate which I'm informed is 'lush, rich and an endorphin inducing revelation', wandering round Selfridges in the hope I leave with a new yellow bag, having breakfast in Cup, pretending I'm abroad and wearing pretty outfits.
Super.
