Update

Lots has been happening in the last month including countless trips to London, a family visit, 3 birthdays, a BBQ at Rachel Elnaugh's house, a friend's wedding and my last shift at the hotel! I left the hotel last week as I wasn't coping with the exhaustion too well and needed to focus on H&G as much as possible. It is such a relief not to have to get up at 5 am anymore, and I now really appreciate a good lie in!

 We've been spending a lot of time in London recently, I think I've been more times in the last month or so than I have in the last few years! Fittings have been done, suits have been delivered and birthdays have been celebrated! We've even spent two days on an exhibition stand for employee benefits hooking people in for the chance to win a free suit! In doing all of this I've had a chance to visit parts of London that I wouldn't usually (because I'd usually spend the entire time on Oxford Street!) and I'm liking it more and more, I definitely think I'd like to live and/or work in London at some point in my life.

As well as all the trips, I've also been spending some time researching what women look for in a suit and came up with a survey, http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WJ3DQ5Q . So far I've found that the most popular place for women to buy formal wear is Next and that almost 50% of women think that the choice on the high street is poor. In fact very few women rated the formal wear they had bought as very good in categories such as fit, quality, style, choice and price. I definitely think more women should be looking to buy bespoke clothing! Please complete my survey and receive a H&G voucher as a thank you.

September saw all 3 members of the H&G team get a year older...all three birthdays in one month (and within a week and a half of each other) was certainly a cause (or 3) for celebration! Meals were eaten, drinks were drunk and a jolly good time was had by all!...until the depression of being another year older hit us.

I had family come to visit me in Leicester which was great, and I've also been home to see a friend get married which was fab! It was really good to see everyone and catch up and it was a gorgeous day, congratulations Mr and Mrs Stephenson! x

And finally you'll be pleased to know that I've finally experienced the Leicester nightlife and it hasn't sent me packing my bags to go home!
