Louise Greg's friend came by in the afternoon for tea It's going to be my first night alone in the house http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-396868.html Friday April 24th BUS VS. TRAINTransportation in London always holds surprises. Yesterday we tried booking a bus from Corsham to London only to discover that we'd pay 38 for the pleasure of sitting on a bus for 3 12 hours on what should be a 1 12 hour car ride. The train on the other hand cost a whopping 1 more. Trains in England are more than two worlds away from the ones taking millions http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-394679.html We don't usually enjoy traveling in large cities. If you read back on our travels we usually enter cities just to stock up on essential stuff as well as essential pleasure you sometimes just HAVE to have a good meal and a latte Some big cities are worthwhile to visit. Rome gets the tastebuds flowing SanFrancisco is pleasant HongKong combines the East and West Jerusalem is truly the mos http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-385005.html Snow snow and more snowWe enjoyed the beautiful thick whiteness covering the roads and pavements for a couple of days this week. Sunday night it bucketed down snow It was oh so pretty Monday morning at 1am the snow was so thick and fluffy. My flatemates and I decided it was time for a snowball fight. Chantelle and I didn't last too long however Luis and Nicolas spent about 2hours running a http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-370727.html I know I'm sorry I am incredibly slackMy first few weeks here were quite hard because I was watching my money supplies dwindle the news announcing night after night that another company has gone bankrupt and made thousands of people jobless and competing with everyone else for any kind of work. Typical I arrive and the country decides to go into a recession But it hasn't been all bad I fou http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-360773.html The heading of this page hightlights a couple of the first things I head when I arrived in London. I jumped on the tube from Heathrow Airport to meet Louise and Alex in Hammersmith. The female voice over on the tube said... This is a Piccadilly line train stopping all stations to Cockfosters... being human I giggled to myself. What a funny name for a suburb Gold Then at every station Please http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-356162.html So I guess after Germany a huge house party a week later another full on weekend in Madrid a quiet weekend is in order.........well not quite. The Madrid weekend was followed up by the Gatecrasher Summer Sound System Festival in Northhampton about 3 hrs Nth of London.......we managed to get a group of around 25 together and headed to an all nite rave........great fun but totally exhausted a http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-299036.html Hey Everyonenothing very exciting here...

Firstly the UK and particularly London seems like quite a violent place. Vancouver had a lot of violence but most of it was gang related and didn't usually involve random attacks on the general public. Over here there it seems like most of the stories you hear about invo http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-266364.html Well hello there and welcome to another installment of the misadventure of moi To everyone who has sent me messages thanks and i am thinking of you all sorry if i haven't gotten back to everyone.So where do i begin I have been writing little lists to remind me of thing so hopefully i don't miss anything out.Over the past week I have spent most of my time blowing my nose. The cold I have be http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-255028.html It has been the most unbelievable start to the year nothing like normal life or living Christmas Roma style in London was a blast There was so much food Wii competitions and we have never seen so many presents in all our days. But it was honestly just so much fun. We spent Christmas day at Mark's cousins Tony and Lisa's house and they put on the full Roast with all the trimmings. And it act http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-240589.html I think I'm up to Update Number 4 or 5 which is not too bad considering I've been away about 4 months. Time has flown as it does when u r having a ball. The subject of this update is the inaugural Australia v New Zealand cricket gameA couple of weeks ago 18 May 02 two groups of 11 players played out an all mighty battle for cricket supremacy at the Fulham Park Cricket Ground in London's SW. http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-233458.html It was very unfortunate that we had to leave you all with such bad news but for those of you who haven't heard Kate made it home in time to say goodbye to her Grandma and she was able to be at home and celebrate her Grandma's life with her family. She was also able to catch up with some good friends and rekindle her Adelaide spirit While she was away Mark went and watched the Australian Footbal http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-228986.html Well September certainly has been a month to remember I'm not sure whether it was because we were away from home or because we are newly married or just a series of amazing coincidences or just because... but I was spoilt rotten for my BirthdayWhen we were camping as we mentioned in our last blog Lisa organised a Birthday cake for me and in the fresh air of the countryside I got to blow o http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-205354.html Seeing as I was going to miss Brock's real 30th birthday I decided to throw him a surprise party admittedly it was a good few months before his actual birthday but I figured we were on London time...I steadfastly stalked all Brock's UK friends via facebook and invited them to help celebrate. Plans were all set Kate stayed home to prepare whilst Brock and I headed off on a shopping expedition http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-203125.html The plane trip was long very very long but thai airways are fantastic i got 2 full meals each section of the flight good food first dinner i chose red lamb curry and i got 2 salads i also got fresh fruit later they give you little hot towels to refresh yourself with as well so it was pretty good.I arrived at 7am yesterday friday but it took me 2 hours to get through the passport screeni http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-193659.html Right scary as it is the day has finally arrived and I'm off to the airport shortly. My flight leaves at 830 so hopefully I will be able to get a bite to eat and then sleep until we arrive in Dubai after about 7 hours. I have a bit of a lay over in Dubai and I should arrive into Bangkok around 6pm local time. As poor Jon will confirm I didnrsquot sleep at all last night as I was too ill with http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-169175.html TanyaKateingham PalacenbspEurope raquonbspUnited Kingdom raquonbspEngland raquonbspLondon raquonbspFulham By TanyaWWWJune 14th 2007Tanya Winson Yes we've given our place a name. 65B Rosebury Rd has never known such class We were lucky enough to score a flat on the cheap and a landlord who even picked us up and helped us move our stuff in born lucky Then after we'd moved in http://www.travelblog.org/Europe/United-Kingdom/England/Greater-London/Fulham/blog-169153.html Kat's RouteWell not much to write at this point as lets face it I'm still in London.
