Has it really only been 6 weeks?

It feels like I've been here a lifetime.

Proper job is a blast and I feel bad that I don't have more work to do. The pub is fantastic

Today I booked trips for the May bank holiday weekends - a weekend in Oxford and one in Cardiff. £4.50 return. Yes, that's what I thought.

I have bought the cutest pair of black ballet flats with a green bow for £5.

Bit sad this weekend as first London friend is going home. I'm a little bit jealous, I'd love to have a weekend at home and then be back here but a tad far to fly for a weekend! Drinkies this weekend and then she's off early next week.

Not really that much gossip, haven't really been in the mood to write much. Still missing you guys and hope you're well xx

ANZAC Day from afar

Tomorrow morning I'm up at 4am and heading to the pub. That's a good way to start ANZAC day right?!

Am going to the ANZAC Day dawn service at the NZ War Memorial at Hyde Park Corner. I'm guessing that it will be a lot bigger than my usual dawn service at Hobart's cenotaph with a couple hundred people and whalers. Maybe it will be smaller, who knows, I will report back.

Sorting out the "finer details" this afternoon I was asked "Will you have a couple of beers after?" ANZAC Day to my horror (:P) isn't a public holiday here so I can't curl up in bed for the rest of the day. So tomorrow early, early morning will be spent with walking through London in the dark, dawn service, couple of beers and then to work.

Oh, did I mention I'm working tomorrow night?! It's going to be a looooooooooong day!
