A Busy Week!

The past week has certainly been a busy one for us. First we had our Chinese Wedding anniversary! We got married (Chinese Wedding) on the 23rd September 2008. To celebrate, we went out into London and had a lovely walk along the Thames. This was followed by a feast in a Chiense restaurant in China town. We both a had a huge meal which included lobster! One of my all time favourite seafoods. Earlier on in the day we had bought some theatre tickets to see ‘Calender Girls’ and after eating we rocked up to the theatre and were told that our seats had been upgraded due to the upper circle being closed for some reason! Great news for us as we had paid for cheaper seats and now had premium ones. The show itself was superb and had a mixture of laughter, tears and everything else inbetween. It was really good. I was a bit nervous at first entering the theatre as there seemed to be no guys and just a load of women, I felt really out of place! Fortunately when we actually sat down, there were a few fellow men who looked equally uncomfortable but at least there were a few of us around!

At the weekend after we had a friends wedding in Wiltshire, a lovely part of England. The wedding itself was amazing and we were invited to the ceremony itself. We left on the day and as soon as we got onto the M25, my wife had realised that we had both forgotten to bring our wedding oufits with us! We had the following week off work so had packed everything else but the wedding outfits!

As a result we had to turn around and then drive through London again! Not the most relaxing task at the best of times. As it turns out, the M25 was completely jammed probably due to an accident, so if we had continued, we certainly would have been stuck for a while. Anyhow, we managed to get back home pick out stuff up and then drive out again. Because of the detour we unfortunately missed the main part of the ceremony itself with the exchanging of vows but we caught the very last bit of it! Oh well, things happen.

Following the wedding, we spent a couple of nights in Glastonbury. It’s a spiritual place and somewhere we had always wanted to visit. It was a very historic place and I was quite surprised. We went to the Abbey which was some ruins set in some large grounds, it was also where King Arthur was said to be buried. It was a very relaxing place and nice to walk around in. The Glastonbury high street was where a lot of the spiritual type shops were. I was amazed at the number of these shops, at every corner there was some store selling crystals, spiritual books, psychics, tarot readers etc etc. We usually love these shops but this was sheer overwhelm! There was a small spiritual fair going on which we attended. It was here that I had my aura photographed. It was very interesting and I was really surprised when the guy asked me if I had some injury to my right shoulder becuase there was an ‘energy’ weakness there. Wow! Of course I had broken my right collar bone and though I am no longer wearing the sling, it is still recovering, so I was quite impressed with that. The lady there also mentioned something about me being quite psychic or intuitive and whether I did much energy stuff. The answer was no apart from my meditations and readings. It was then that I bought myself a moonstone crystal. I read on a chart that it was one of my birthstones and can help to increase psychic awareness.

Alison my wife, she had an iridiology reading and was recommended some dietary changes. I guess that probably means more vegetarian type foods! Bring on the lentils!

At the fair I also bought myself a tibetian singing bowl which is something that I had wanted for a while. The lady selling them goes to Nepal whenever she can and imports the bowls to sell over here. Her website is: http://www.yakyak.org.uk/.

Of course we also walked up the Glastonbury Tor and then visited the Chalice Well which is a 4 acre gardens with natural springs and the Chalice Well. The garden grounds were beautiful and extremely tranquil. It was said that Joseph of Arimathea went there. The water was drinkable and you could take some home ina  water bottle. Of course I washed my moonstone crystal in the water!

After our fun trip to Glastonbury, we spent a few days with our families before returning to London with a final late birthday dinner with some close friends.

So, overall we had a great trip, busy but very much fun. One last thing for me to do is to book my followup theta healing session!
