04.30.11Taken By The ClubhouseSo we didn't quite make it for a round of golf yesterday. But we did manage to visit the 19th for a few preprandial cocktails (to toast the Duke and Duchess innit) where Katie was given a ring of her own. But don't get too excited: an elderly gentleman gave Katie a giant plastic monstrosity with a flashing light inside, which she refused to take off for most of the evening, which must have made us popular in the restaurant. She wears an ASOS belt as a necklace and two Cos dresses (must have been cold). Jah Love. X

04.29.11Taken On The Big DayA mildly hysterical Katie woke me at 4.30 in the Jamaican AM to watch the Royal Wedding. She then donned some red, white and blue, raided the fridge for bubbles and marched regally out onto the balcony. I think she's probably just looking for an excuse tae get blootie. The dress is Vintage Resource Studio, flowers are from our garden and the champagne is Chateaux Rasclart. #QILF #pippa

04.28.11Taken On The Hidden BeachIt's pretty quiet here anyway, but we're feeling especially pleased with ourselves after finding a secret, secluded bit of beach which is totes close to a bar too. The plan for the day: beach + sun, while possibly talking about the merits of a game of golf. We almost definitely are not going to play golf. She wears an ASOS kaftan thing and Mellow Yellow shoes. Hope you're all super stoked about The Wedding. Jah Bless. X

04.27.11Taken Before The Steel BottomsOur driver, XL, (it can mean "excellent" or "extra long" apparently) is a man of discerning tastes, with a predilection for the gastronomic. We were therefore surprised when he suggested that we ask our barman to make us some "steel bottoms" - a drink which, at first hearing, sounds like pretty much the worst cocktail ever conceived. The ingredients of a steel bottom? Wray & Nephew overproof rum mixed in equal measures with Red Stripe lager. The verdict: utterly vile. Stomach-turningly hideous. Gag juice. Having said that, it wasn't undrinkable. If anything, it was quite morish. Which is why it's ...

04.26.11Taken Before CocktailsIt's pretty awesome here. Katie's puffing on that 'dro virtually 24/7 and when she's not, she's toasting Damien Marley style or practising her dutty wine. Which leaves me to work on my rum game and get my tan ready for my imminent TOWIE cameo (they'll call eventually - perhaps I could play Joey Essex's dad). Lady Twerk wears a Zara dress, Liberty silk scarf and a shirt from SuperSweet. Jah guide. X

04.25.11Taken In Jamaica!Wa gwanin? We're at the Half Moon Club in Jamaica! Apparently this place has been in lots of James Bond films - it's mega pimped: the whole place looks like Goldie's bathroom. One Jah Love for Emma at Destinology for finding the gaff for us. Here's Katie with some kind of stone Lion of Judah, wearing glasses inside because she's probably been smoking on all that chronic. Or is a bit jetlagged. She wears a Burberry dress and a vintage scarf thing. Got to dash: it's barbecue/rum/sunbathing time. One Joe. XXX

04.24.11Taken Before The FlightOh look. Doesn't Katie look pretty. Got to shoot: we're off to the airport. Tomorrow's post will be coming at you from tropical climes. Katie wears a vintage cardigan, Vila dress and Tabio tights. Have lovely weekends and we'll see you tomorz.

04.23.11Taken On Holywell LaneThere's no hating on K today. It's all about the enjoying the laziest Saturday in history. Ingredients: 1 dressed crab, brown bread, a bottle of Campari, a bottle of lemonade, the first English asparagus of the year, some terrible reggae = good times. Three cheers for JC and his magical dying/undying trick: long may it be commemorated with chocolate and limited access to banking facilities. Katie's wearing Toast flipflops, a Roxy kaftan and John Paul Gaultier sunglasses. Hope you're all pacing yourselves and drinking plenty of water.

04.22.11Taken Before ViajanteHola. We're very excited as we're off to Viajante for dinner this evening with our brilliant next door neighbours, Floris and Dineke. It could get messy. In other BIG news, I am now able to wear my hair "up". Which explains Katie's slightly forced smile this evening. She wears a kaftan from the Vintage Resource Studio, Miss Selfridge shoes and a vintage bag that's been carved from of a lump of wood. Laters. Have lovely evenings. xx

04.21.11Taken Before Joe’s Night OutSoz for the late post - got to dash I'm out with my mate Tom and he doesn't like waiting for blog writing. Love X
