London

On Wednesday my Auntie Judy and Cousin Owen came to London for the day from their little hometown of Doncaster. My mum, Kayla & I acted as their very own tour guides and showed them round some of our favourite parts of London for as little money as possible. 

Just a tad bit obsessed with Nandos

I LOVE NANDOS. 

Excuse Me.. Do you have the time?

My boyfriend bought me this gorgeous Rose Gold Stella Fossil Watch last Christmas and I absolutely love it! I hadn't really been into watches much previously but there's just something about a Rose Gold watch that wins me over. With the increasing popularity of Michael Kors watches, despite the fact that they are stunning, I'm glad that mine is a Fossil. It came in a pretty little tin box which I still use to store it in whenever I'm not wearing it. The face still shines like the day I first opened it and there's no one scratch on it! 

The Man behind my Smile

 He's been mentioned in a few of my posts but I've never really introduced him. Dwayne & I have been together for 3 years 4 months and I can truly say I am deeply, madly, truly in Love with him. As the title of this blog states he is the man behind my smile, my best friend as well as my biggest motivator continuously provoking me to become a better person. 

New Car :D

On Tuesday I got a new car after my previous one was damaged beyond repair by my local garage 

 :( 

I chose this beautiful black 1.2 2010 plate Vauxhall Corsa which I got from CarCraft in Enfield. Despite the paper work process taking 2 Days to complete the customer service I received from the guys was amazing. After being told I would have to come and pick up my new car at noon the next day I was offered a lift home by the manager in addition to being picked up the following day. 

My car is second hand but has only ever done sixteen and a half thousand miles so to me its basically brand new and the interior and exterior are in excellent condition. I got it for a bargain price of £6,500 and I couldn't be more happier, the petrol lasts me a while and the tax isn't too extortionate. Not to mention I get free 5 years warranty, 5 years MOT, 5 years servicing and 5 years breakdown cover! 

I think its safe to say that I love my new car :) :) :)

Uber

You decide you want to get a cab so you open up your Uber app...

your pick up location will already be set to your actual location but you can easily move this if need be. During this time you can also see how many minutes your cab will take to arrive. You then click "set pick up location" this allows you to enter your destination, get an instant fare quote and enter a promo code if you have one. Last but not least you REQUEST uberX and your cab will be on its way. Easy as 1, 2, 3!

The service you get after booking your cab is, in my eyes, exceptional. You will be shown a profile of the driver who is coming to get you this will include: their picture, the kind of car they have and their number plate as well as their 5 star rating. At this point you will also be able to track your Uber precisely on the map watching it’s every stop and turn. You'll then get an app notification when your Uber is waiting for you outside. 

Once your journey is finished you can just say good-bye to your driver, hop out the car and the fare is paid for automatically. If you want to give your driver a rating out of 5 stars this option is also available. Last but not least you will receive an email with the exact breakdown of the cost of your journey. 

Uber is a relatively new online cab ordering service that guarantees a price cheaper than a London Black Taxi, everything is paid for through your debit or credit card and if there is more than one of you sharing the cab you can easily split the fare within the app by entering your friends Uber details. It takes the hassle out of having to call your local cab station (or having to find their number if you're not in your local area), telling them your exact pick up and drop off locations, and then asking for a quote and how long the driver is going to take. I've used Uber a few times in the last couple of weeks and have enjoyed the service every time. 

Enter PROMO CODE 47dea OR G4K5H to get £10 free credit to use on your first ride.
