Hello friends and fam,
What' up all? Firstly welcome to my blog it should be an experience for us all. especially since you're all probably going to have to read well in between the lines and accept while hopefully understanding max's lingo..
I'm in london atm and staying with my greek friend in his single bedroom apartment above camden town tube station and across the road from the Original and well known Worldsend pub. Not sure why it's well known and i did try to ask the bar tender why but she was polish had no idea either. she did direct me to the posters on the wall but i choose to just drink my pint instead, but by the experience of their toilets lets just say the place must have a history to it. Well since landing on sunday morning at 5am here it has been a wild partying time, with not much attention paid to anything else apart from the GREAT pubs of GREAT BRITIAN.
Anyway i have paid my respects to modern art and the modern game of international soccer matches in the last three days as well. i got the chance to see
australia play denmark in the soccer last night. the atmosphere of the game was simplely amazing. but unfortunately denmark taught us aussies a lesson about needing a defence line, 3-1 they way but lucky i was wearing team clothing from both nations so i could take some pride in either nations win . the guys a went along with and i loved being surrounded by 20,000 aussies expats all yelling at the refs with their slightly less australia accents. Get this boys and girls bloody jimmy barns did the openning anthem for us, wow he keep both us and his eliz proud..
sorry to break the flow here but i've just woken my friend ben milton by passing him the my excuse for a towel which might possibly be the biggest fannelette around..
Yeah the tate modern art muse-o was a great laugh. it had huge steel slides coming down from every which floor which the public could use. it was great to hear screams coming from them in every language possible.
Well the english aren't as ugly as i remembered them to be, but at the moment drinking seems to be getting in the way a bit. Plus everyone that's really attractive who i've talked to seems to speak a different language, but that's london for you..
Anyway groovers i've got a bus to manchester to catch and the other sleeping booze hounds have awoken, keep enjoying your summer days and nigths... hasta la victoria
