Stratford crew
Well I wish that I had some interesting things to post. But I dont. So i'll just tell you what I've generally been doing the last couple of weeks down in London town.Stratford is about 30 minutes on the underground from the center of London, but no, that doesnt mean I've been doing interesting things like visiting museums, palaces, shops, bridges, or whatevers.. because you see a day travel card costs £5.40. which equates to about $13 australian in the old currency.
So instead ive just been hanging around at Dave, Chris and Andreas place. But no, hanging around doesnt mean watching tele all day, cause they dont have a tele. So hanging around means.. making beans on toast, listening to music, reading a book, doing sudoku, and drinking endless cups of tea. For some reason, maybe the climate, i dunno, but ive been drinking far more tea here than I ever have.
The Highlight of my day/week would be.. going down the street to the supermarket, and.. (what im doing right now) hanging at the library. Yes, the library,.. quite possibly the coolest place to hang in Stratford, except of course for KFC's.
Oh and Mum, ive found a new puzzle you might like. Its a bit like sudoku. its called KAKURO. I dont know if youve seen them or not. Try typing kakuro into google.

Glenn I'm sure you can do something else in London for not much money. It seems such a pity to vegetate in that unit. Although tea has been found to help your memory as well as having anti-oxidant properties.
The bus is cheaper than the underground, and you can look at stuff out the window. Then once you're in the centre of London, there are heaps of free museums, parks ets. Look it up on the internet. Type in 'London for free' in google or something. There might even be cheaper transport options. If worst comes to worst you stand outside the tube station in the afternoon and beg for people's used day passes and use them for the afternoon/evening. Just don't hitch hike. Too many freaks out there.
id have stiff competition if i were to beg for peoples day passes around here. Theres already some guys that do that then sell em off for cheap.. I dont wanna "step onto their turf" so to speak. - it mite start a gang war :)
yes, I think the museums are free. ill investigate....
Yeah Glenn. The National History Museum is free (and cool, check the massive live sized WHALE). Dinosaurs!!
