Too tired...
There were no songs that jumped to mind when I began writing this - actually the only one that did was 'Last Christmas' by WHAM so that just didn't seem right. Anyway just a quick update as to the fun that life is over here in the UK. Have moved into my new place - have my own room - how exciting.
It does have a lot of storage space so 'Danger Will Robinson' - have to make sure I don't go crazy and buy too much for it. It does help though with the antique type things I do want to buy. I am resigned to being able to buy things and then send them home when I go travelling - I am only human.
Will take photos of my room and send some more photos of ice skating - which was sensational fun, and other things. doesn't seem to ever be enough time to do all these things. Can't remember what my last entry said, but I went to Windsor last weekend and saw the Castle - very nice.
Then went ice skating - which as I said was fun. I am enjoying the cold, and the Xmas lights and general Xmas feel is great over here. Apparently Jan is depressing so I am going to overcome this by going to shows and travelling. Going to a Kevin Spacey play on Wed night with some friends. So there are always things to do - and I am making the most of the time over here.
The underground provides endless amusement - and people are great contortionists, twisting and turning their bodies so they can fit on the train - most amazing thing ever. It cracks me up every time. At first I was so scared of gettign on the train it was only that I was going to be late for work which had me brave the crush and jump on. Now, I am as crazy as everyone else and limber up in the mornings ready for anything :)
Oh well I am hoping you are all well over there in Oz and I am glad our cricketers are giving the English hell - makes my meetings much more amusing!
