London recap, October 2026 – What I did in 24 hours

As I arrived in London Gatwick airport on Wednesday last week, I did something I’ve never done before. I left my baggage behind in baggage claim. I (un)fortunately noticed the second I went through those “No return” double doors. I had terrible brain fog that day, and the staff at the check-in counter told me it would take “2, 3 hours, easy”, to get my suitcase back.

In the end, it only took about an hour total, and it became an incredibly annoying start for this frazzled, frilly woman. I ran myself down that evening, and worried about the 24 hours that were coming up: 3PM Thursday to 3PM Friday.

Schedule:

3PM: Quick browse and cafe visit on Oxford Street
3:15PM – 4:45PM: Nail Appointment
4:50PM: Head over to lover
5:30PM – 5:45PM: Estimated arrival at hotel
6PM-10PM: Time with lover
10:30PM: Start heading home
11:15PM: Home
1AM: Bedtime
6:30AM: Start day, shower & prep
9AM: Head over to lover (stop at café and bring matcha lattes)
10AM – 11AM: Time with lover
11:30AM: Head back home for hair and makeup (again)
1PM: Call a cab and head over to shoot with KLE
1:45PM: Arrive and change into first look
2PM – 3PM: Shoot with KLE
3PM: Shoot ends

My nail appointment ended up finishing 30 minutes late, and I didn’t realise Oxford Street was already in the works to be fully pedestrianised. Thank goodness for black cabs. I arrived to meet my lover at 5:59PM (which is unlike me because I’m an early bird).

It may have been a frazzled start to my London trip, but as soon as the black cab turned around the corner and I could see my lover waiting to greet me, I felt that level of joy that only this job gives me. No longer foggy, or run down. The sight of a familiar lover; someone gorgeous and worthy of My attention, perked me right up.

Ending an evening with one lover at 10PM and meeting another at 10AM was interesting, especially considering the opposite scenes/my role. From a suitcase full of black silicone, leather, latex and lubricants, to me arriving with two matcha lattes – one with cow’s milk and with one oatmilk (I remember him saying he loved matcha, but I wasn’t sure how he’d like it served). Different sessions that weigh on the mind and body in different ways. I felt good. I feel grateful. I really enjoyed this trip.

Hair and makeup fixed twice that Friday morning alone, followed by something I haven’t done in a while. If you’ve known me since I was Zex, then you’d know that I don’t really work with male photographers these days, however, I was keen to be involved with this exciting shoot with KLE – the escort directory that I’m a part of.

I’m gonna keep info on this shoot a little quiet until the photos are out, but what I will say is that I had a lovely time. I may have been the shortest in the group (seriously – they all had legs for days), but I wasn’t overlooked. I felt precious. Community is so valuable in every field – especially this one. Everyone was so friendly. I can’t wait to tell you about the other people I shot with so you can be as obsessed with them as I am.

Edit: I coincidentally received a preview of the photos as I was writing this! KLE will be sharing all the photos first, so be sure to keep an eye out on their website and Instagram.

After the shoot, I spent the late afternoon and evening time with loved ones. I ended up crashing on Saturday (I’m surprised it wasn’t sooner), and on Sunday, I spent time with my favourite mean woman, Mistress Morningstar, at Riot Party. This month’s event was to celebrate Black History Month, which included QTIPOC brands. My newest accessory is the chunky necklace just seen in the photo above by Modmize. I’m all for doing some shopping between raving, hehe.

I ended my time in the UK with a cute trip to Brighton. Let this be a reminder that my interests are broad. I like horror films and video games. I also like cute Japanese characters and shades of pastel. I can dine at Michelin starred restaurant, or grab a cosy bubble tea. I love luxury, but I also love the simple things that spark joy.

I think the word to sum up this trip is grateful. I’m really grateful for my community. I’m grateful for my friends and loved ones. I’m grateful when lovers respect me, and when they feel good about our encounters. I wish I could’ve held you all a little longer.

Touring London in November / My birthday month

On that note of wanting to squish you, I’d like to let you know that I will be back in London in November. I will most likely be there at the start of the month. Since my birthday is on the 23rd November, I require a birthday gift for all bookings made in November. You can refer to the notes on my website, think about what we’ve already shared together, or browse My wishlist. I’m a sentimental girl when it comes to these things.

Hope to see/meet you soon. Take care.

Unrelated note: My husband’s client was describing me to someone today. “She’ll invite you to tea, yeah? But sexy!”
