Forbes' friend Tim and his son who is the bass player of Elliot Minor.
Can you tell the difference between a millipede and a centipede? I can, because I went to the Natural History Museum today! A millipede has two sets of legs for every section and is a vegetarian, whereas a centipede had one pair of legs for each section of its body and is a carnivore! huzzah!

Yes, today I went adventuring so South Kensington, where I also visited the Victoria and Albert museum. I am in love with the most beautiful Chanel cocktail dress I saw there, as well as a selection of amazing jewels, some from 500BC! If anyone feels at any time the need to buy me some emeralds and diamonds, please, go ahead. Actually, while you're there, feel free to chuck in some ancient Turkish tiles and a few Indian sculptures. I won't hold it against you. I promise.

Hmm, I have also seen a semi emo band called Elliot Minor, thanks to one of Forbes' friend's sons being in the band. Think Fall Out Boy meets Muse- not completely emo but their sweepy fringes say otherwise. We had lovely access passes 😊 Forbes attempted to get me on the tour bus to Wales... alas his attempts

Och no! We missed the Hilltops!
didn't work. Oh well. We had a good night anyway.

The next day I witnessed the closure of London bridge that happens once a year. Forbes was walking up and down, dressed in appropriate attire for medieval lute strumming. Well, almost. He didn't have appropriate socks much to the disappointment of the adoring crowd... Claudia. Then that night I was lucky enough to see La Roux (google them) thanks to Tom's free tickets, and then we partied in the VIP section of Number 5, a very exclusive london club where a table starts at £500! Oh, and at the La Roux gig, i saw Tony from skins. MY SHOULDER TOUCHED TONY'S SHOULDER!!! The only downside was that throughout that exclusive night I was wearing my jeans and dunlop volleys because I was dressed for watching lute playing on london bridge. How embarrassing.

And the next day I had empanadas.

I'll put the photos up soon.

Hope you all miss me a lot.
