Gotta see London

Since we have some spare time (being jobless and all), and Nat & Dave got us a London Pass to see some London sites (thanks again Nat & Dav)... we thought we'd kill as many tourist attractions as we could in 2-4 days!

So just to keep it short - here's the things we ticked off our list:

LONDON ZOO


ST PAULS CATHEDRAL - view from the top


TOWER OF LONDON



WINDSOR CASTLE


WIMBLEDON

Unfortunately we didn't get to see any big stars or even the inside of Centre Court or Court #1... however the atmosphere, and walking around the massive grounds and other courts was cool. We got to see some of the juniors close up - they're still really good!! We were really lucky with the weather and we didn't have to queue for tickets!

Not included in our "touristy" days, but just down the road from us... is HYDE PARK - kebab for dins..


So to conclude, all the attractions we've seen were very cool and a must! Glad we got to do them. There are more pics on my FaceBook.

The Black Seeds @ the Electric Ballroom

If you ever feel homesick, or want to get away from the Poms... go to a NZ gig! Huffer / Federation / "100% Pure NZ" tees and kiwi accents everywhere.

Went to The Black Seeds last Wednesday night (25th) at the Electric Ballroom in Camden, and it was good to boogie to some of their classic hits.

Real cool vibe and a cool night out with some of the TNZ clan.

Food for thought - Yum Yum Yummmo!!

So there are a few goodies that I'm addicted to or loving at the moment... McDs Crunchie McFlurrys, giant coke bottle lollies, and roast duck!
Man - I sure missed the giant coke bottle lollies back home... now they're stocked up at the diary right across the road!!
And bad news with the McFlurrys... I must say, I've been having one at least every 3-4 days! Not good... hehe
