So me and my friend from Oz, Ziggles McGinty, made our way from our adorable little Ikea hotel to the train station where, while I was waiting for the girl to heat up my cornish pasty, we ended up missing our train. It stopped for maybe 10 seconds, opened the door, closed the door and buggered off. …

My friend Ziggy and I had made plans to take a trip to Bath but ended up missing the train due to my incurable Cornish pasty addiction. It hurts more than just you, kids! While my butter-and-meat grease-filled fix was being heated up, the train scooted right out of the station. We finally tuc… |
Five minutes in the hotel internet in Southampton
hammered out on October 28, 2008 at 08:08AM
Write fast! Is it possible that I already miss London? I had a minor mishap getting on the wrong train to Southampton. Apparently the one that leaves at 1:35 is totally different that the one that leaves at 1:39. Okay. A nice stern old Englishman helped me figure it out, though and I made my way qui…

Football, pubs, and Buckingham Palace
hammered out on October 26, 2008 at 05:08PM
Woke up rather late this morning and ended up missing Australia v New Zealand in rugby. I decided to grab some breakfast and watch the football match on tv in the local pub. It was amazingly fun, especially when Liverpool beat Chelsea 1-0. Then a friend and I decided to go shopping a little while. I…

London by day and night
hammered out on October 25, 2008 at 08:26PM
This morning I woke up early, took a shower, and went downstairs just in time to catch the end of breakfast. I ended up making plans with a friend who had just moved back here from Cardiff but we weren't meeting until 12 or 1. I didn't have much time and I wasn't sure where we would end up meeting s…

London
hammered out on October 24, 2008 at 08:17PM
As I was on the train coming from Heathrow and I was looking out the window at the rainy, foggy dawn morning and it occured to me that it looked quite a bit like home. It has a very comforting quality about it, where you know that inside those little lighted windows there is someone snuggled warm an…
