These boots...

... were made for walking. I hope.

Waking up alive and where you expected to wake up is always something to be thankful for, but waking up with no hangover on a day like today is particularly sweet. Colin wasn't so lucky.

To celebrate, I took myself into town and had a bit of a shopping spree. I was badly in need of some winter clothing (I try to keep my shopping to about twice a year), so I got all the necessities: a couple of jumpers, a hat and gloves, and... em... a skirt, handbag, necklace, shoes, a Nasa t-shirt (not rrrreally sure why I got that one) and these new boots! I'm hoping they'll keep my feet warm and comfy as I wander around in Holland next week :)

First day of December, how did that happen?!
