5 Years In London Town

#114 - Centrepoint

To all those who commented on the last entry - thanks. It is good to know that there are people out there :)

Thought I should post today to mark the fact that it was 5 years ago today that I flew from Prague to London to start my London life. Crazy how quick 5 years can go. Here is the post from 5 years ago - makes me laugh. Must have been an awesome keyboard i was using!

It is strange. Did I think I would still be here in 5 years time? Probably. Do I think I will be here in another 5 years time? Probably. By then I would be a fully fledged UK citizen - now that is a scary thought !

Summer Days ...

#110 - Lovebox Wave Swinger

Okay. I stopped posting photos every day here ... because .. well ... i am not sure anyone really reads this anymore. Or maybe you all learnt chinese and now use it as your commenting language of choice ....

Anyway ... there is still a photo a day ... you can find it here.

After 3 weeks travelling its awesome to be able to do a load of washing without having to try and find a laundromat.

He Vuelto

time to reflect
Well i made it back safe and sound. I took heaps of photos but its going to take a while to get them up on the net. I learnt the hard way that you can still get dust in your camera even if you dont take the lens off .... will be prepared next time. In the mean time some of my photos are going to require a fair bit of dust spot removal :(

All packed (nearly ...) and ready to go. Off to Morocco for a couple of weeks, then a week in Spain. Just checked the weather for Marrakesh - next 4 days all 35 degC plus. Ouch. Be just like being back in Adelaide !! Also means that, apart from one last photo tomorrow, the blog will be going text only for the next few week or three. (Never fear - i'll undoubtably be taking at least a photo a day on my travels. Be prepared for a flood on my return.

Beers after work in the Slaughtered Lamb. Turns out The Slaughtered Lamb is also the name of the pub in American Werewolf in London. Also turns out that some of the American Werewolf in London was filmed near where I work. Time to revisit an old favourite ...
