Recovering

Well, since last week, I have had the flu in quite a bad way, I am feeling mostly recovered now, just still a bit drained and tired. Unfortunately, I passed the flu onto Mike and so he has been feeling awful since Sunday. He is so stubborn though and refuses to stay home from work, he is never going to get better if he does not rest. We had a lovely weekend all the same - on Friday night Mike and I met at Wimbledon where we boughht a new camera for ourselves, for Barcelona , a Canon Ixus 90. It is very cool and I am so happy with it! We went to the Slug and Lettuce and had a few drinks together. After that we went home and played SingStar together. It was great fun and we had such a laugh doing it. We got so involved that we only ended up going to bed after 1am! On Saturday morning, we had an early morning as we met Sput and Myles at the Springbok Pub in Covent Garden at 10:00am. The rugby was a bit disappointing - we lost :( We stayed at the Springbok bar for a bit and then moved onto Belushis. I think that place is Mike and mines favourite place, as it is quite a rock place. We left there at about 5 because sput had to get home to Aletha and I was not feeling well and desperately wanted to have a lie down. Had my lie down and then Dwayne came to pick us up and we went off to his house for a braai. Had a lovely time but by this time, I think Mike and I had overdone it quite a bit and we were both not feeling well. We only left there at 2:30am and went home and went straight to bed. Inevitably, on Sunday when we woke up, we were both feeling awful and we stayed in bed all day. Well, Mike did anyway, I had to rush off to work to pick up documents and make copies for my Spanish Visa appointment on Monday. All in all, quite a pretty busy weekend for two sickies!
