I didn’t mean to take so long wishing a Happy 18th Birthday to my amazing girlfriend,

We had an amazing week off work together, during which we spent Wednesday evening at the Hard Rock Café in Cardiff with a group of Laura’s family and close friends, where I discovered that not all ribs are as bony and meatless as mine and it can become quite a deal to eat all of.
After that we spent the night at the swank new “Holland House” hotel on Newport Road in Cardiff. Even though from the room I could see my own house, it is definately somewhere I want to stay again as it was an absolute pleasure, the room was brilliantly modern and great looking, I really couldn’t believe we were still in Cardiff!
We finished off with two days of shopping in Birmingham on Thursday & Friday, staying at the Copthorne hotel in Merry Hill and shopping for almost two days solid at the absolutely huge Merry Hill centre, after that, the words “No Laura, I don’t mind going shopping with you!” will never be uttered from my mouth again, and I warn all you men to take heed of this warning!

(ps. Laura. I’m sorry it’s so late, I just wanted to have the picture up too to go with it.)
