Why haven’t I posted an update for a few days? This is something I can’t really answer. I haven’t been doing that much. I’ve had something to do each day though. Wandering around London, checking out parks, museums, galleries. I’ve caught up with old friends. Went partying with Wayno and drinking with Alicia. I’ve slept in parks, enjoying what little sunshine the UK has offer. I’ve moved house, to Kentish town, staying at Michael’s share house. Sunday was an adventure to Brighton to see the pebble beach. Something so surreal I had trouble comprehending it. People lying on the cold gravel just as they would on the warm soft sand of Australian beaches. It seemed ludicrous.
The weathers turned bad. The sun we saw last week has receeded behind rain clouds. Chill winds are whipping down the street, dragging with them freezing drizzle and driving rain. I can see why people in London get depressed this time of year. I planned to go to Madame Tussauds today, but I can’t brace myself for the weather. That, and the hot water is off here which normally isn’t a problem, but cold water here is COLD water. Stinging points of ice that shred the soul. Ain’t no way I am jumping under that shit today.

March 26th, 2009 at 9:44 amHow cool is the brighton pier? Me and our cathie sat in that little pub with all the sea shanty shit hanging off the walls, having a quiet pint on those fantastic leather couches…. before heading off to the amusement arcade to gamble on those little coin falling slot machine thingos. Sweet memories.

March 26th, 2009 at 6:29 pmgood looking pebbles I need some for my garden
March 26th, 2009 at 10:00 pmBTW wouldn’t lying on pebbless leave funny indentations all over you?
Just watch it when you turn over and get onto your stomach to catch the rays!!
All I can think when I see those pebbles is sex on the beach. Would it be worse, because it was less comfortable, or better, because you wouldn’t get sand…you know, everywhere…or WORSE, because you’d get PEBBLES you know…everywhere.
Anyway, clearly that beach sucks.
March 29th, 2009 at 7:26 pmhaha , memories! I went skinny dipping there – in the middle of the day, trying to impress females ( it was cold so they were doubtless not too impressed ) and then when I came back out, I slipped and bruised myself badly on the pebbles – I had pebble shaped bruises on my arse for weeks… thats alcohol for ye
