WEEK 2 - LONDON
Well we made it in one piece.... despite a bomb scare at Heathrow whilst we were still in the plane!
WEEK 2 has been filled with live soccer during daylight hours (not 2am on a sunday morning!) drinking while watching the football, sight seeing various museums and galleries, travelling up to 16 times a day on the infamous tube which is the best thing since Peter Daicos, catching up with people and visiting every free activity there is in London. It has been great and has definetly changed our views on this wonderful city. Perhaps we could live here happily after all!
Troy and Jean have been fantastic hosts and have made us feel like we belong here..... with special mention to the homeless guy who sleeps outside the window and keeps us awake with his continual coughing...... what a place!
Catching up with young Country this weekend aka Brett Elliot, who according to him is going to show us how to drink pints until you pass out..... should be fun.
THE MOMENT OF THE WEEK -
This prestigious award was almost going to go to the homeless guy who has entertained us, but the award this week goes to our first day here where we watched Liverpool win on a cold Sunday afternoon sitting in a typical London pub drinking pints. It doesn't get much sweeter!!
