Ok, Im not gonna lie..... it was sooo good to see Chelise again! Man I missed her! Just taking the train into town from the airport cost 30 bucks! Welcome to England. By the time I got here I was so travel weary that I was just greatful to have a place to crash for a couple of days without having to make the most out of every moment. So for the first couple of days I just layed low in Chelise's flat and caught up on the travelpods while sipping coffee and watching Srubs on TV (which by the way is the best show on TV...I just discovered it) Once Cheise had finished her job we went downtown London to see a bit of the sites and out to her old stopping grounds. I got to meet most of her friends old and new (she used to live in London) and we had a grand old time going to her old heavy metal clubs. A fun lesson I learned at one of these clubs is as follows: while drinking heavily do not head bang too intensely or you will pass out and fall into a group of strangers that will then want to kick your ass...... Luckily no asses were kicked and Chelise likes to say she saved the day by getting in their face.... (so Im told)..... Anyways a good time was had by all!
A nice surprise by Chelise was that she bought me concert tickets to a Less than Jake, Drop Kick Murphys and The Living End gig. It was sweet concert and the Beer was only 7 dollars a pint!!!! The Enlish pound is killer! We spent the rest of our time here wandering about the city, meeting with her friends and packing up her place to fly back to Seattle! The pictures suck because I lost the motivation..... I just wanted to be..
