We returned yesterday at midnight from our 4 days trip too london which was TOTALLY AMAZING AND UNFORGETABLE !!!!

Flo, Cookie and Cathy in London !



Friday
Hard to wake up at 5 to take the train, but we made it !

Eurostar and there, we're in london.
First stop = Starbucks, take a little breakfast, then Forbidden planet where I found what I wanted (Watchmen comic and Donna action figure) and I found THIS... YES ! a comic book with Iron man AND spider man... and the little I read seems very interesting.

After that, we went to the hotel which was really great. our room with only us, our bathroom, our television... and near subway/pubs/starbuck/everything... defintely the adress when we'll go back

Then we went to eat to camden where we stay all afternoon.



And it's only 4 pm on this picture... all dark outside...

As the evening arrived, we went to wembley arena to see THE MARVELOUS MIGHTY BOOSH on stage !!!!!!!



angeliksmall on her baby chair :p

The show was WONDERFUL !!!! I LOVED IT SO MUCH !! and to see them live it's so more intense ! I love the story made up with Howard's play, the songs, the characters... TONY HARRISON !!!! THE CRACK FOX !!!! BOB FOSSIL's DANCE !!!! VINCE TOUCHING HOWARD ARSE !!!!
It's nearly impossible to describe... even dead by tiredness i was still floating from all the show...

Saturday

Rainy day in London.

In the morning we went to do some shopping (hmv, Hamleys, etc...)
We ate in a indian restaurant and started to play the tourist.

we went in Camden (the Roundhouse which is a realy great place) and had really good places near the stage.
Some brit are a bit frightening as the jumped on each other but i finished really near the stage, in frond of the singer who he's so hot and so great at singing *________*
The gig as really intense and fantastic. we hardly walked after it... and my love for the fratellis increased again *_______________________*

Monday

We hardly slept a few hours and got up at 5. We left Flo and go the boosh signing !!!!



It was worth it as we were #57 and 58 in the queue cookie and I ^^

The waiting was not so long, it was not so cold (well... we had very warm clothes too ^^;;;) and they made us get the wristband earlier than expected... Borders is cool !

Sorry for the shaking but I have to wear my luggages and I was pretty nervous as you can imagine ^^;;;

They were really cool and adorable... julian shiness and noel smile... *sigh* I want one... well... i want both...
I said "Bonjour" to julian and he answered "Oh... bonjour"... and after signing "Cheers, au revoir" with his beautiful british accent ^^
and we talk a tiny bit with noel to say we were french and he had a smile and sais he loves france (well i know he wouldn't say that france sucks but still)

Still floating we went to our final bucks then top shop (too expensive shoes) and as we were so exhausted we went to the train station to wait for the eurostar.



I stole a spoon to eat my salad... cathy turned bad...



And there... already finished... I WANT TO GO BACK NOW !!!!!

Good bye London, see you soon.

merlin, trip, fangirl, brit, the mighty boosh, friends
