Blwyddyn Newydd Dda!
London was fun. although it did not stop raining the ENTIRE DAY! no wonder everyone thinks it never stops raining here!
the funniest thing was that i left my house at 7am in around 10 cm's of SNOW! and we had to go down the dual carrigeway at 15 mph! and when i spoke to vicki she said they haden't had any! there really is a north south divide!
anyway i got my train alright, the underground was well confusing but thats just me - id have enuff trouble getting out of a paper bag! but i made it to the london eye to meet kendraaa and anna banana!
county hall's right next to it ! that where they hold all the manga and anime conventions! so now i know! mwah!
so we went on the london eye - mainly for the experience because with all the rain you couldnt really see anything. highlight was kendra making a film on her camara and saying ' hi y'all, i'm at the london eye, in london' tee hee crazee ladyeee
then we walked back to westminister to see 'big bill' and the abbey then i persueaded them to walk down to 'downing street' and then we found an italian cafe near there where we ate. expensive but then it was london and i expected it.
from there we went to see queenie in buckingham palace but she wasen't in :( i waved just incase she was pearing out the window incognito. visited a few touristy shops on the way and then began the palava of attempting to meet vicky.... ha ha
to cut a long story short we all met up in oxford circus eventually and then went to canbery street or something similar where i found a chealsea 2006 calander for me pa for 4 quid! whuu huu!
i then got dragged around many clothes shops before finally getting vicki to take me back to st pancras...
slept most of the way back and tried to dry out a little. but was a mucho fun day and it means now i wont get the ' youre from england and you've NEVER been to london?!!' thing.
in 2 days in PANTO! WHOO HOO!
and i fly back to ol' deutschland on the 5th (7am flight! arghhhh!)
i have so much to organise! i cant find my original copies of the learning aggreements for spain or germany! and i really need the one for spain! because they have *ahem* not recieved their copy apparently - even though i know they have!
because it all went together as one package application und alles - and they told me theyve got all that just not the learning agreements! grrr
anyway new years was pretty uneventfull. my sister came over because ian had to work. so i made pizza for tea and then made one for her when she got in.
sat and watched quite an amusing episode of never mind the buzzcocks
