alrighty.. stefs mention of another days jetlag was quite rubbish.. as we have been friged everyday since we got here from jetlag.. even now i am out of it.. plus we have been gettin up xtra early to go on tours, etc.. and his mention of the weather being ok was also rubbish. He wanted to say it was good so that u guys would be jealous, but i want u to know the truth cause if u know me, i need sun and heat.. and london right now aint any of that.. it has rained everyday.. it is pretty much heavy overcast clouds.. and the chill breeze is murder. You might get some sun every now and then but it never lasts very long.. so u try to take advantage and appreciate it while u can.. (eg.. me baking on the top of the no roof double decker tour bus..). Stef also likes to keep these posts short cause he says he 'hates it' when people post long as posts.. that go on about everything and no one gives a frig about reading the whole thing... but i know most of u will love a long post with plenty to read.. so yeh..
So stef left today with his sis Maria (who is here also) and his cousin Andrew (20) to Nottingham.. (Notinem as they say) where his cous and family live.. he will be there a few days.. and then he will b visiting John from high school. Andrew came with Maria to visit and stay with us since sat. I have come to stay today with Angie who lives much closer to the city and the airport. Sweet place and cool roomates (one from NZ the other from gong (Angies cus.) )... and access to net which i am now using. I am getting up tomorrow at 7 to catch train to airport, where i then fly to Amsterdam for SENSATION WHITE. (http://sensation.nl/sensation2007/) gonna b huge. just spoke with the guy i know from Norway on skype, who i am meeting there.. Angies cous just happened to go to Sensation last year.. so i got all the goss bout it.. and he said its so gold its not funny.. mushrooms.. no.1
so yeh.. both me and stef stil arnt necessarily xcited bout anything yet.. its almost like we arnt in another country.. mayb with amsterdam i will start to get xcited.. and the contiki will juice it up..
The history behind London is really great and interesting.. the bus tour gave so much great info about certain buildings (eg.. the place that princess diana went on her hens night.. or the street the great london fire started in 1666)..
I esp. like the location of this one quite important spot.. royal relevance etc.. where stef had taken a whiz just the night before..
just remembered.. when i was walkin to angies unit with her.. 3 young black dudes ran past us.. and then 2 police.. who were chasing them.. followed by police sirens and cars.. yeh.
..and also. on the bus home from city at like 4am.. frigged and practically asleep.. then waking up to 'hes got a shotgun .. hes got a shotgun..'.. and a group of black dudes jumping onto the bus.. smokin a joint.. etc.. abit scary.. the others said they didnt hear the shotgun comment.. maybe i imagined it... yeh.
were in an ancient gothic style pub.. fantastic atmosphere.. met up with Tom - stefs school mate.. and had 3 beers with him.. me and stef were boozed.. just slightly.. but enough for us to 'feel' the good times of being in london.. which was busy as on a wed night.
all good and fine regarding any of the terrorist stuf.. u peoples just chill out.. london is damn huge and so many raiway lines and stops.. all very quick travel so not in one spot long at all..
anyway.. enough of this.. im tired..
