One way to the UK?

Well nothing too much to report on!

Spoke to Tys last night which was cool – sorry can’t afford to phone everyone from home ;o) but I’ll send as many postcards as I can via the Royal Mail!

I finally finished the document I started working on yesterday…. so it took about 7 hours in total to complete! And I bet there’s still little things that need changing… and then once the creators and editors have had their go at it, things will need to change again! Oh well, that is mostly what I’m getting paid to do :o)

Tonight I’m going by this little butcher that I saw near the house from the bus window – apparently Brenton went and said it’s quite good but a little expensive but hey you have to expect that around here! There’s also a little show/fair on in the Mile End Park with those dodgy rides you see at the Alice Springs Show, so while they’re parked up and killing the park’s grass, I’m not sure how many people will brave the maintenance-issues and go on them! Tonight we’ve also been invited to catch up with John, a nice WA guy we met thru old housemate Carrie at a ‘local’ pub near to where we all live, so that should be good! Mara and I have seen a few pubs near us (including the Palm Tree… it is by the canal in the middle of nowhere, but always people there! bizarre) but yeah we haven’t located a nice little local yet so we’ll see how tonight goes.

Oh and by the way – the sun is just peeping out from behind the clouds! It’s predicted to have sunshine over London from 7pm continuing onwards til 4am or there abouts when the rain will begin again.

Well just a quick post – had to work hard at work today! One of my bosses has just been given an additional role as the interim project sponsor of Security for the 2012 Games, so now we have all the SOC documents and business cases for SEcurity to format as well as our own Logistics ones! This afternoon I swear my eyes have gone square shaped as for the last 4 hours (it’s 6pm now) I have been formatting the SOC bit by bit – the original is shocking! All the margins wrong, font wrong, incorrect diagrams and titling etc, etc! Fun fun. Need to go home then to the gym now!

My PT finally called me yesterday… but I missed the call, then phoned him back but he was with a client or something, and then tried again after my jog and he was busy! So I’ve left messages again and will wait, again, for his call! It’s lucky that I have a LITTLE motivation, otherwise with a PT like this one who only just called me 2 weeks after getting my gym membership some people are likely to have given in already! Perhaps he was waiting until I activated my gym membership (which happened Monday) until he phoned me…. I do have an excuse for waiting though! I’ve only just gotten over my horrible cold or flu thing which is a relief.

 Okay, so this morning, I was on my way to work from Clapham on the tube and nearly fainted! It was so bloody hot and packed, and just as we were approaching the final stop I totally overheated and was trying ... [Continue reading this entry]

Well, two weeks 'til Milan - it should be worth the wait for a relaxing weekend. This weekend just passed, Ali and I were going to do something Friday night and then one of his best mates got a payrise at ... [Continue reading this entry]

Well, no, not a romantic weekend or things of that sort - but yesterday I was trawlling through the internet and found some cheap flights from London to Milan - for £0.01 plus taxes one way, and then only £19.00 ... [Continue reading this entry]

Well, I just went to the post office to mail some things, and then had lunch at this cafe place up the other end of the shopping mall (underground bit), and on my way back I glanced up and noticed ... [Continue reading this entry]

Have you ever stopped and looked at the word 'draw' and how unusual it is? I'm just doing filing at work, and homing things to their draw location... and was thinking is it spelt draw or drawer, or is one ... [Continue reading this entry]

I think that's the latest news anyway... there were two attempted car-bombings in London's west end last week, followed by an explosive car driven into Glasgow Airport - luckily none of the three car-bombs detonated which is good news for ... [Continue reading this entry]

Well, Friday my throat was sore and I could hardly swallow, and then my nose started running... and it just got progressively worse over the weekend and so here I am on Monday morning, at work, after dragging my behind here, ... [Continue reading this entry]

I think I forgot to post so-far this week - so quick rundown, actually only really one thing happened, which was after work drinks on Tuesday night at a place called All Bar One in Canary Wharf. A work coleague Vishnu organised the ... [Continue reading this entry]
