Back in London. After out first week spent in a crazy and very populated house that we picked up off gumtree, we spent a week with a friend, at his place in Leyton. Nice house, it has made us want to buy one... which may be a possibility in the future.
We have a flat now though, we moved into it on the weekend. Its down in the Isle of Dogs (Canary Wharf) which is a fancy redeveloped former docklands area. There is a couple of photos of it below. You will be able to tell which pics are of our flat and which ones are the castle, I think.
We went for a drive on Sunday, as a practice run to see which way Richard has to go to get to work. We took Trish, she's from Townsville and lives in the aforementioned crazy house. Then we kept right on driving in the general direction of Hastings, to Bodiam Castle, which is a proper like castle that was built in 1385. See pics! We also had a BBQ lunch, with one of the very handy disposable BBQs they have over here, 1.69 pounds, and you get a foil tray, with mesh over it, and a bag of heat beads in. You simply drop a match onto the bag (it's paper) which lights the beads, and 20 minutes later the flames go out and you can then cook over the beads for an hour and a half. Brilliant.
Lunch time.
