Tea Please!

Yesterday was brilliant. Not only was the weather fantabulous, but going to Portsmouth's Historic Dockyard uncovered a wonderful opportunity for me. I visited their Georgian-style Tearoom. The Georgian is a lovely, light tearoom attached to an Antiques Storehouse (which we had a peek into as well, some really grand things in there) where they have a range of wonderful leaf teas, coffees, cakes and sandwiches, perfect for a spot of afternoon tea. I indulged in a lovely Rose Oolong tea (2 sugars and a dash of milk) while Dave went for the smokey Gunpowder tea (black, with a sugar to chew on after) in some fine white teacups. 
My Rose Oolong Tea :)

We did plan to have a slice of cake, but completely forgot! Perhaps our tummies weren't feeling it. But it was a really lovely experience and the tea was simply divine! I will have to see if Whittard Of Chelsea has a similar tasting tea for me to have at home. And of course, I'll get a traditional teapot (probably a 2-cup one. We own a 6-cup Victorian one already) to make my leaf tea in! Lovely, lovely! 
I will be arranging a Lolita Tea Party at some point, I can't wait for it! 

Anyway, we also visited the Spinnaker Tower! Well, we stood outside of it and took pictures!  
I love how blue the sky looks!

But yea, I had a super Saturday! I love going out and about with Dave, it's so fantastic ! I'll be adding more pictures to this post soon, including one of me carrying the tea tray like a little maid-chan, so keep checking back! 
Also, I have my college interview tomorrow for my Fashion and Design course! Wish me luck guys!

Have a wonderful week!

Full of chinese!

Full of chinese!

Well, tonight was a rather strange set of events. Miku decided to take me to the small town of Hythe (The one in Hampshire not Kent). So we set off on this tiny little ferry to the town and when we got there we went on this little old train down the pier. It was really old and it creaked. I was really scared. But then we got off to look around the town for a place to eat.
Only to find there wasn't anywhere! There was an Indian place but I don't like Indian and there was a few kebab shops but no where else. So we went to a pub for a drink before catching the next ferry back.
On to find there wasn't one until 8:10pm. So we went back to have another drink.
And missed that ferry so we waited for the 8:40pm one. We stayed put that time. And soon enough we got back on the little old train to get on the ferry and finally got back to Southampton. And we walked though town and stopped off at Ocean Dragon for some chinese food. After eating a plate full of duck and chow mein, we decided to show our faces at home before heading to the bus stop. Vicky came with us to the bus stop and enjoyed playing in the ark. Poor girl doesn't get out often.
And tomorrow, instead of hanging out with a certain dickwad, I am going to the Bear Factory with Miku, Vicky and Ken. Should be very fun ^^
Night night all!
Love Love,
