London baby London!

this past 2 weeks have been gloriously grand and relaxing. i've been around London in a red double-decker bus, sailed on the River Thames under the London Bridge, jostled people in Harrods, strolled around Greenwich Village, went to a christmas concert in an old anglican church, attended a posh party in Oxford in sports shoes and jeans, sat down to a beautifully laid table and dined with millionaires who are marathon runners, pigged out on chocolates and put on loads of weight. ahhh...life.

i saw SHEEP whilst on the train! black-faced sheep, white-faced sheep, ponies, cows et cetera. so exciting to see sheep for the first time it is. indeed it is.

Tower of London. didn't get to go in. shucks. I sailed past Traitors' Gate on the River Thames though. note the name-dropping. heehee

Westminster Abbey. ooo ahh ooo ahh

You'd think Buckingham Palace would be impressive but i wasn't that impressed. I bet Queen E could build a more grandiose palace if she chooses. weird. got to see it by night too, and it was more romantic looking then, with all the street lights.

Trafalgar Square. loads of icky poo pigeons.

i did the touristy thing and hopped on a double decker tourist bus. costs 19quid. i didn't pay so oh wells! glee. Eaton Square, one of the poshest places in London, where all the celebs live. eg. Maggie Thatcher, Sean Connery, Mad Onna.....

my fav scene is Houses of Parliament, or else termed the Palace of Westminster. i got to see it all lit up by night too!

i love London. next stop....Paris! nyehehe
back to reality--> Salford. sighhhhh

ps. i didn't take the piccies. googled 'em. camera far too bulky. heeee.
