Say Hello, Wave Goodbye...



Hello 2013.  Goodbye 2012.  Happy New Year Frock Fans & welcome to my "very much condensed" review of the past twelve months.

Other things of note:

The end of year party at The Golden Bee where we drank cocktails and danced to "proper" disco music
Extra work in The King of Soho

Northern Soul - the Victoria Melody play
Dear Catastrophe Waitress
The Jubilee (loved it all, you haters!)
The Olympics (see above)
Good times in the Quays (Surrey, not Florida)



So, this past year has been "interesting".  I've worked my wotsits off to get my business properly off the ground and am (touch wood) winning.  Onwards & upwards, and here's to not having to do a 9 to 5 job or go to Xmas parties you don't want to go to, ever again!  I've enjoyed good times at my new favourite place, Trishas, lots of cocktails, dyeing my hair orange, going to lots of private views/launches and playing out South of the River! 

I'm not making any resolutions for 2013, other than to have a blinking good holiday in Stockholm (at least one) and growing my business to a point where I can be the lady wot lunches that I'd hoped to be.

Cheers everyone.  Here's to a good New Year x
