You are here.
Updates are possibly going to get a little scattered at this point, and photos even more so, for I am now on the road and having a look around at a few things/places, and don't have the luxury of my own internet connection. It's a hard life but I'll manage. Somehow. Friday I think I…
I think my body clock's officially stuffed. I used to think that my sleeping in was just because my body was in Adelaide but my mind was in Perth, and I was therefore operating 2 hours or so behind… logically, giving my system a huge jolt like moving to London should set things right ?…
Oh boy, I've gone and gotten behind on my logging again. Now, one thing I forgot to mention was my constant amusement at the quaint place names they have around here. For example, there's a tube station called “Tooting Bec”. Makes you feel special knowing there's a place with that name, doesn't it ? Their…
OK, where was I up to ? Wednesday, I think. Wednesday I wandered in to check out Trafalgar Square, which was pretty easy to get to as it's on the same tube line as our nearest stop. Was a pretty impressive lookin place ! If I was ever to have a statue or other monument…
I woke up. OK, my last couple of days have been *moderately* more interesting than just waking up… As I'm “on holidays” now, I'm operating on B.S.T.

OK, so who wants to hear what I did on my first day here ? After arriving – absolutely KNACKERED – and posting on my web log yesterday, I embarked upon my chosen Mission For The Day. When I was speaking to my travelled and learned colleague Winnie earlier in the week, he said that…
How about that eh ? After 5 years of false starts and mishaps, I've finally gotten here ! London, here we… errm… are. The departure stuff was fairly straightforward – uncustomarily so, for me. I was really stoked to have such a large contingent of farewellers at the airport – a nice surprise. And of…
4:49am, Saturday May 1st. I leave for London in about 6 hours, or something. Luckily, I've just finished packing. Jeez, what a pain in the crevice that exercise was. As today was such a full-on stressful day, I found great happiness in the fact that I'd had a chance to catch up and relax with…
Now isn't this just the most dandy little web resource, eh ?
Last night I grabbed a few folks and dropped in to the Jasmin Restaurant for a spot of fine dining. Adelaide has some excellent spots to go for Indian, but the Jasmin is definitely one of my favourites. Not necessarily the easiest thing to find of course – a single glass door on Hindmarsh Square…
