Happy National Pina Colada Day… well for yesterday that is!

I fucking love the smell of Saturday.

I’m so exhausted from my first (half) week back at work.. I literally spent the whole of the last few days moving dimensions on a drawing to make them more legible and making tweaks to annotations.

Fuck my life!

Anyway here we go!

This weekend has been good so far, it was my dad’s birthday so we’ve been celebrating, went up to Soho last night with my uncle Jonah & aunt Christina who came all the way from Northern Ireland for the weekend for a little break and to see us. So it’s been an interesting weekend, I really like having them around. It is so strange how different my dad and his brother are though, my dad is like the ‘geek’ brother if you like, whereas my uncle has seen some rougher times having been two years ahead and having bore the brunt of hardships that would come their way in Hackney in the 70s.

My uncle disappeared for about 17 years not to be heard from until about five years ago when he messaged my dad out the blue, and he was living in the Hague, Netherlands.. So yeah it was weird for me to start with because this guy was more of a ‘myth’ for most of my life and I did not believe he was actually a real person.

So yeah had a few drinks in Piccadilly and a meal up in Chinatown, London, which was great fun!

More to come this weekend – hoping to spend some time continuing to paint the back of my bedroom door later today possibly.. Keep your eyes peeled.

Peace&love

Steph
