London

/user/bigben.JPG

Well, I finally arrived in London and got to see my cuzzy (Tatum, pictured below) which was great, especially after travelling around by myself. I was really looking forward to having some company that I had known for longer than 2 minutes! Not that the company I had met til now was bad, but....well you know what I mean!

The plan of attack in London was to survive a month while spending as little as poss so I had plenty to spend when we hit Europe . . . .it kinda worked . . .

I stayed with Tatum and her flatmate Nicola (see the rather tall young lady in the picture at the bottom) in Stevenage for a week, when I first got here, which was brilliant. Although it was a fair hike to get to London each day, but I still cruised in most days and checked out a few touristy sights like Big Ben, the Houses of Parliment, all the usual things. Nothing was really planned, I just sort of stumbled around bumping into things.

The pic on the right was taken in Hyde park on my first day in London and it was a beautiful sunny day, don't ask me why....I was in England, its supposed to be dreary and cold....what the hell is going on!!!

The lovely young ladies in the pic on the left are Tatum (my cousin and fellow traveller aka Prima), Nicola (Tatums flatmate/workmate and the wonderful person who not only let me stay at her place for a week, but at the end of that week organised for me to stay at her parents place til I took off for Paris, isn't she wonderful?), and Angela (the third member of our wee travelling group, aka Le Grand Fluff)
