London Town

Hit the ol' town after a fun but totally uneventful trip via the Chunnel (yawn) and the spreading fields of lovely england. Met Simon and Nick Warner of the Train - very rare to bump into someone you know, but made for a good trip. The tube is the same and the party to welcome me magnificent (ok so it was for the final of the World Cup). Wibur in his usual quite way,was expounding the glory of Wheat Beer. Phil, his NZ flat mate, and the garden, were there to be enjoyed on a truly lovely English night. Spicy sausage and the pleasure of a few cold one - and the south africans winning!Although hard to take, it is better than the english. The french, irish,scots,welsh and all the world thinks so anyway. Great show from the Argentines. Have done the usual this AM as teh day is wonderful - brekky of bacon and eggs - Wilbur knows what a fellow needs after a few weeks in the french provences!The walk along the River from tower Bridge to St Pauls is still one of the best ever. Tate has a fine couple of showings and Soho is looking good. dinner with Phil and Wilbur make me think of some other times with this boy. We reminiseed about he-who-shall-never-be-named and caught up on the old London friends. monday is a walk up Oxford Street with a small pig-out at Harrods-yum. These things are what makes me love this place. Can New York get as exciting for me as well - possibly. The rest of the trip is a bit of a let down so will see ya in Brisso if there are no other hitches. LOL
