Blogs from Enfield Town, Greater London, England, United Kingdom, Europe

Opa galera tudo bom!?!? Aconteceu de novo e dessa vez nem esperávamos!!!! Sim, todas as vezes que eu e meu irmão moramos em casa separadas o blog fica distante!! E ainda trabalhando essas nossas horas malucas fica quase a perder de vista!! Mas cá estamos novamente para informá-los sobre nossas vidas! Voltei pra Inglaterra no final de Agosto e desde então muita coisa aconteceu! Logo na minha primeira semana tive a entrevista com o Assistente de Gerente do restaurante onde o Greg e a Rafa trabalham e foi bem tranquila, na verdade, todas as entrevistas que tive, 3 no total, foram apenas formalidades pois na prática já estava com 95% do emprego garantido! Meu irmão e a Rafa estavam mandando muito bem lá e eles queriam alguém similar, bom, similar à Rafa, mas nós dois juntos ... read more

As planned, we left for Trent Park in the mid morning. We started the trail outside Cockfosters Station, north edge of the Piccadilly Line on 2 May. We walked through the meadows and grasses with buttercups towards the café in the centre of Trent Park. As expected, there were a lot of people with children and dogs in the park. We followed the trail on the Oakwood towards the nature reserve around the Middlesex University. Birches, horse chestnut trees, ashes, oaks, and various types of conifers and shrubs were thriving and they showed its distinctive colours and shapes of the foliage from lime green to dark green. White and pinkish cherry blossoms, crimson, purple, orange, and magenta rhododendrons and azaleas, puce bluebells, yellow rises were blooming and they decorated the lush green space in the Trent ... read more

Thought we would start this blog off before we go...not long now, 17 days! Its been a mad few weeks trying to get everything done, most things we needed to do are done now except for a few bits...still need to sort out insurance and book our flight home, so two pretty important things...! Also need to buy a few others bits- Mosquito nets, water purification tablets, sleeping bags liners, travel towels...so glamourous! We are going to have a practice pack this weekend to make sure we can get all the essentials into our rucksacks...hair straightners, mini hairdryer, make up...and thats just Scott...but seriously I do not know how we are going to fit everything in, just for a weekend away our cases (yes one each) are usually full and over weight...guess we just have to ... read more

Hello from Mark's backroom. It seems that the closer we are getting to our travelling excursion, the more things still need to be done. However, as promised, after much fighting with the computer and the inter web we have eventually got our Blog up-and-running. As we prepare to embark on our trip into the unknown the task of successfully jetting ourselves around the world, taking in the sights an sounds of all the wonderful places we plan to visit and then returning home again safely in one piece, seems more and more unachievable. However, through thick and thin, we vow that you at home; sitting comfortably in your armchairs, sipping tea and feeling dry and warm, shall be provided as close to first hand as we can supply, the ins and outs of our great adventure. ... read more

Hello! Welcome to our blog. Those of you who followed me (joe) last summer will be familiar with the setup, for those who are new to travelblog.org then this is where you'll be able to read all about mine and Jenni's adventure as and when it happens, fresh off of the press. (ie. as regularly as we can when we find a computer!). We're planning to travel from New Delhi India to Hong Kong China using nothing more than planes, cars, boats, boots, public transport (not excluding rickshaw), luck and good will! :) A bit more detailed of an itinary is as follows: 4th Oct: Fly to New Delhi from London 5th Oct: Hopefully land in New Delhi with our bags and everything! 6th Oct: Begin our northern India guided tour taking us from New Delhi ... read more

Today was my last day at work, so Greg had me spend it like any other: leaflet flyering and updating the systems directory. On the plus side, Greg did bring me a jelly-filled doughnut as a goodbye gift. I was happy I at least got the first 52 pages done of the directory update. At least it meant that I got a good chunk of the work done before the next person has to tackle it. After work was just spent babysitting the flat mates during their party. Like usual.... read more

I got a call from Nicola last night asking if I could go to the secondary office to help out. I agreed, and it turns out when I got here this morning it was our job to go around flyering again, which was fine with me. I got to see a lot more of the town because of it. I definitely enjoyed being able to see what some of the upper class houses in the area looked like. In other news, we all go together and bought pizza for lunch, which means I didn't eat my sandwich, which ultimately means that I'll have something to snack on tonight at the airport. I cannot wait for Barcelona, so I'm going to give you a run down of the rest of my day and post this now so ... read more
