Sorry for the wait!
Entry 9 of 9 | show all | print this entry |
Ok guys,
I'm sorry for the long wait and me not getting in contact with you all since I have arrived in London. I did make it safely and I'm slowly getting settled. After staying at Darren's (the base jumper) place for a couple of weeks (maybe a week or so to long) I finally found a place of my own. Nothing special but apparently, for London, it's a good size room. The location is good (Shadwell), only a 25min walk to London City, were my job at a bar currently is located. Yep, I'm working in a bar! Exciting I know, but until I find a real job, it's paying the bills, just! Finding work doing massage is a real pain in the ass but I finally had a job interview and have found out that I need to get my course recognised hear and that will help me out.
Anyway, I suppose you all want to know what I have been doing hear, what I have seen etc. Well, to be honest, not that much!! I went to Tower of London the first week I was here and saw Tower Bridge, that was cool. My work is just down the road from St Pauls. I have a really cool view of it if I stick my head out the front doors. I have put pics of everything I have seen on my facebook page if you want to see. I would have put some more up but someone stole my camera! Not happy! Thank god I did get that travel insurance!
I'm loving all the history that here. The fact that just about everywhere you look you can see a piece of history that is older then Australia is very cool. I know history was a bore at school but it's so much cooler when your here with it surrounding you. I enjoy going for walks threw the city on my days off. I just catch the tube to a station and walk home, hoping im heading in the right direction! Yes, i have been lost a couple of times! But hey, its all good fun!
The guys I'm working with a really good fun. I get along with them all really well and we get together on the weekends for BBQ's and drinks. Iv maybe been drinking a little to often, but hey, 'When in Rome.....' (or London even). And I am working in a pub! Speaking of drinking, the first few times I drank, I got really drunk really fast. They only sell beer in Pints hear. Now, i now we sell pints back home as well, but when that's all you drink, you have to get used to it! What else can i tell you.... Oh, the sell Cider on tap! Strongbow amongst others. And I have to admit, some are really nice! Yes, that right, i do drink Cider... Im with you Nath.... at least while im hear!
Ok guys, im off now. If there is anything you want to know or anything you think i have left out, let me know! I cant remember everthing i have done but if you want something specific, im sure i can remember.
I'll try not let it be so long before my next entry.
Hope everyone is well and not missing me to much....!
