LONDON’S NEWEST 5* LUXURY HEALTH & FITNESS CLUB ·         Complimentary towels, luxury products

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Yes it's overdue! Head here for the pictures :)

There was a video clip of us heading off but I will upload that later

Taken on my phone camera from one of my site visits...as well as I finally saw the ocean in the UK at last in my last cycle run. We were out east right up to Southend on Sea. So reminds me of NZ except that they have beach huts over here which is quite nifty to dump your clothes before heading out.

Work load UP, training load UP, eating UP. Hardly have time to be online lately but all is good.

And I still manage to squeeze time to make chocolate truffles! heh.Will post about that later...

It's similar to NZ's women's expo but different in a way that the people here display different products...but all for the main objective(s) :)

Held at Earl's Court 2 building, this expo is happening starting today till the weekend. I wanted to go last year but couldn't get tickets. As well as me being super stingy, I manage to get them for £5 instead of the usual £15 if I go today.


It was quite a great night as it wasn't too crowded either.


There were different type of stores but all divided to sections mainly broken into career and motivation, beauty, pamper, active and not forgetting food..in which I hung around that area more often for the free samples :P. There were also places to hear motivational talks, how to lose weight talks, and a cooking show area too. It wasn't super huge, it was just enough to cover for 2 hours unless you're willing to line up for a cheap massage or pedicure.


I shall not bore you on the amount of things I found from but there were 3 highlights from the shows. One being this Awesome Monitor where it can monitor 5 things: Calories intake and eaten, how many steps you take (pedometer), how much you sweat and how you sleep. It even knows when you wake up in the middle of the night! Very good technology since it was long applied in the hospital and is now commercialised.

Another cool thing from the show was how food was made gluten free, oil free and organic. Love the pure chocolate samples, the muesli, the seed snacks (they've produce apricot kernel that tastes ultimately delicious as a snack) and they have also got lactose free milk! Yumm.

Last but not least, there were quite cool nifty kitchenware in which I so wish I could buy such as a blender and stove in one. It's pretty much a blender, but has a heat feature. Gosh, tefal was there and a kitchen and knife company were there too.

As the weather brightens up at last!

Work load shot up to the roof last week but I'm not complaining at all, as well as been keeping up with training with extra precaution since I feel my old injuries are coming back.

Spent almost the entire Saturday doing the 40mile bike run as we didn't know the route well and we were doing it in a group, hence waiting up for others to catch up. It was amazing just to run through the country side getting fresh air, passing through farm lands, mansions, cottages, and bare fields for a change. Things like that is just worth getting up early for.

But yes, I had a klutz moment where I swore I slammed both brakes when the lady in front of me slowed down but somehow my bike just flipped over and I fell straight to the ground with my chin ><. Thank GOD for the jacket collar that I landed on, if not I'd be bleeding really really badly. Oh and yes, the bike was fairly new as it was bought the night before. But hey, I love it because it's so much lighter. Yay.


Anyway, it was then off to a Turkish restaurant for dinner where we went to Sofra to try out. T'was really good as my dish came with small portions of everything. Check out here for more of my reviews bout the restaurant.
