Hindu temple awakens sleepy eyes

Another exhausting weekend. Thank god its Monday tommorow, a chance to chill at work.
I finally did it. Got that dam ticket. That Mexican plane ticket. Haha. I'm off on 13th October....

Friday was spent at Nattys having a few beers and playing lots of bumper ball and watching the video of Russian drunk.
Saturday I went into town on the misson of buying a plane ticket. Had to walk alot though, several lines were suspended and others had delays. No need to elaborate on that.
Went into a STA travel. Asked about London to Guadalajara. Was told a open 12 month return costs £634. Hmmm, alot of money. The chap wouldn't let me have a one way either. Ok
To the next STA travel on Shaftsbury avenue. Same story here. Price had risen by £3 too. So far, crap.
Decided to try Trailfinders. I walked from Lancaster gate all the way to High street Kensington across Hyde park because the tube was fucked.
Poped into a Thomas cook on the way only to be told be the dumb assistant (sorry this girl was dumb) that a return would be £2000. She found a one way for £598. I could have found better deals on my own.
In Trailfinders I found a £360 flight, one way. Not too bad, good in comparison to the others. Asked if getting a one way was ok and visa guy said it was. STA travel are bastards.
So bought it!
The trip takes me to Madrid and Mexico City before Guadalajara arrving at 8.20pm local time. Excellent. Will check out hostels now.
I want to make it to Puerto Vallarta for a few days before the course starts lay on the beach and chill for a bit. Havn't done that in 3 years.
After that I went on another wild goose chase to find Muppet man and his band of thieves.
We went back to Lubos house for a few beers, Slovakian spirits and Whiskey.
Porn star was there looking as tempting as ever. Also spoke to her boyfriend who is a nice guy even if his English isn't the best.
Man, Eric is raking in the £'s. Anyone who says this and that about foreigners coming for benefits are talking out of their ass. Eric gets £350 a month for walking dogs. Hes buying a flat when he goes back to Slovakia.
By 2am I think most of the gang had left and I finally collapsed on the sofa while Lubo played the National Anthem of the old USSR.

Watched the German Grand prix in which JP Montoya climbed from 20th on the grid to a impressive 2nd. A bit of a boring race though. On the way home we stopped off at the local Hindu Temple. Lovely place. Full of carvings, colourful dolls and the sort.

Eastern people not coming for benefits... theyre coming hear to earn cash as its far more money here and than west and then go back and use the cash to enhjoy better lifestyle there...

Like with Canmel taking cash back and having better life in Pakistan and then the same with Indians...

Question is its it good for Britain on whole having unlimited amount of people being able to cross boarder for western europe as it makes job compeytition harder...

SAme for countriers like Holland and France... reason they said no to EU in part was they dont want Polish p-lumbers and other eastern europeans coming over disrupting status quo....

Coming here for jobs is ok when econpomylike mo is booming... when it falters it will be worse for lot of people overall....

Personally my experience and logic work here for say a year take cash then go back... like your mate is...

Thing on it in the Times...

Austrian girl doesnt like Slovakians working in Vienna...

Strange but you know some weird...

I dont really care too much... I mean... I think but I dont really think any1 here got asked ion the EU really so I dont think much about it...

Face it EU ids EU u cant do anything about it like it or not... but why not be British get cash and invest in foreign country...
