A Day In The Life Of Lauren

A few months ago, a friend and I went to Edinburgh to see Hairspray the musical. Whilst the whole weekend went in in a flash, we still managed to squeeze in lots of fun things to do as well as taking lots of candid shots of one of my favourite cities in the world! So, in order to get me back in to ‘writing’ (I’m aware I have been MIA since forever, sozzzzz) I've decided this post won't be wordy and instead will be filled with photographs.

Although Scots don't really need an excuse to enjoy a dram or a good time, it's still nice to have a night designated to it - or two, or three - depending on how well you want to celebrate!

Haggis, neeps and tatties happens to be one of my favourite meals, and that's not just because I've been brought up eating it. There are other Scottish delicacies I would not thank you for, but this one, I really enjoy.  Popular to contrary belief, a haggis is NOT a bird that has one leg shorte...
