Falcon Hotel Farnborough

The title is the most awful joke in the world so blame my sisters for thinking of that and keeping it in my head!

OK so tomorrow is my big day. No im not getting married, im going away to India....to travel. As you guys already know (because i haven't stopped talking about it since April!) im starting off in Goa for 3 months doing a project teaching kids on a ...

We are back and it is all over now. I am in equal measures sad and tired. Basically too tired to write this as my body's telling me it's 7 in the morning and I haven't gone to bed yet. Still - the map pin location is there. Big thanks to all who read this and even ...

... only 2 hrs into the play. Also today I went into the House of Parliament where you can watch either the House of Lords or the House of Commons debate. Pretty cool..for about 5min. It would be like watching cspan. Tues: Went to a comedy in the Theatre district called Boeing/Boeing..very good. Wed: Imperial war museum which is one of the best WWI and WWII exibits Ive ever seen. Thurs: leave for Amsterdam Tuesday:

Well folks, that's your lot. The fun's over! I'm back home and it feels, erm, ok. Quite a few people already know that I'm back, but due to my lack of organisation (pre- and post-arrival) combined with generally poor communication skills, some of you probably still are not aware of the triumphant return. Hence my final self-important and righteous note to you - the loyal and trusty reader. My sister Liv picked me up at the airport and we spent a great day catching up. I then had a ...

... parks and just cam estumbling along the Thames River. I later found out that if I would've taken one of the turns I would have hit the palace. Oh well, I'll look at the map next time! I got to see a little of Zone 1 (very little considering there are six zones and I maybe saw about 3% of zone 1). I'll definately be back. Planning on spending my last six months of work out here.

February 9 We left with the bus to London at about 17h and arrived in Hammersmith later on to go to Dana (HC: mrsnice) where we would stay for the week end. Later on we tried to walk to the party venue, in a pub in Hammersmith, but we got lost and it take ages before we managed to find the place. It was Stefano's birthday party (HC: sty79) and mostly everyone from the local community was there. It was great to see some known faces again and meeting new ones as well. The aprty ...

... expensive. But Cierr* loves it bec*use they h*ve *n equestri*n dep*rtment, *nd re*lly, where else could you even think *bout buying * s*ddle in * dep*rtment store? Meeting up with Mike *nd sever*l of his comp*triots *t * loc*l pub turned out to be * perfect w*y to end the evening. Mik* showed up, Mike's eldest gr*ndd*ughter (which m*kes her Hunter's cousin or 2nd cousin or cousin once removed... we h*ve no ide* how *ll th*t works.) Although she w ...

Its Sunday. This time next week we'll be in the air, half way to Hong Kong, the missus hyperventilating (not a good flyer...) and me probably sat behind the only person that insists on having their seat back reclined for the entire trip (why does it always happen to ...

... again, as I love the local music scene and enjoy being a part of it. For all of you that heard the comedy and ballad songs, that is something I am going to do separately from the band, but I will keep you all informed as to their progress, and if anything happens with them. Eventually, I think I would like to go back to Ocean Beach, even if only for a year or something. Miss the weather and the feel of the place. Plus I would get to see my cousin ...

... period. Whilst being away from the distractions of home, and knowing he'll be at work, it will give me a chance to gather thoughts and sort out work ideas (post travel) Not gonna say much about that, but US will pretty much consist of New York (cause mate has just got back and won't shut up about it), somewhere near Seattle (cause my cousin lives there and I ain't seen him since I was THIS big), and then San ...
