London Life

Well we havent been up to too much in the last couple of weeks so here is a quick rundown on typical life in London (well for us anyway). Melinda is working as a relief teacher so she doesnt usually know where she is working until the morning. Sometimes she has to get up and get dressed and ready and just wait for someone to call!

I (Adam) am working for an Engineering company in Hammersmith. Its an easy walk to work which is much better than getting the tube (the train), but it can get a bit cold when there is a frost about! Friday lunch times for me usually means a quick couple of pints of bitter (cellar temperature - flat beer) down at a local with the blokes at work. I am trying see if I can try every beer in the UK, but it will probably take a few years and a few livers to do that!

On the weekends I usually play Rugby for a local club and then down to the club pub for a few refreshing beers after the match. Sundays often ends up as our day to jump in the car and head off around England checking out some tourist sites. So far we have been to Stonehenge, Bath and Brighton. The picture on the right is one that I took when we went to Bath late last year from inside the old Roman Baths, looking out at the Abbey.

Well this weekend we are heading over to Amsterdam for the weekend which should be an experience. We'll write more about that when we get back.
