We warmed up with cocktails at the 4th Floor bar in Harvey Nicols afterwards. I tried a pumpkin patch martini which was amazing.

As an added bonus, we had the perfect and warmest view of the fireworks that went off at the end of the show.

Tom and I celebrated our 11 year anniversary today and I couldn't resist surprising him with the watch he's been wanting for ages.

We don't usually swap gifts on our anniversary as it's so close to Christmas and Tom wasn't prepared so he helped me to fire a cat ear headband charm.

It was so much fun using the blowtorch.

In the evening we headed out for cocktails and nibbles at Harvey Nicol's, where we felt a little out of place when two tables around us asked to try the wine before the waiter poured it.

We had winter warmer cocktails, nuts and chips. The cocktails seemed so strong and we were really tipsy after two.
