Bombay Bicycle Club
We’ve been having some re-decoration done on our flat this week which has meant we’ve been living with lots of dust and disruption since Monday. Despite this, we’ve still managed to eat fairly well but last night we gave in and decided to order a takeaway. I was ridiculously over-excited about this prospect as, apart […]
