I'm sick…

Not sure of the last time I posted. I've just spent the weekend staying at my friend Kate's place which was cool. It was nice to chill out, even though I seem to have been doing quite a bit of that lately.

I got back to London on Wednesday & have really only made use of Thursday by going to the V&A museum (Victoria & Albert) & the Natural History museum. I really enjoyed wandering round on my own again. Thursday night I was introduced to the Red Back in Acton town but it was a little quiet so we moved on to the Slug & Lettuce in Fullum w‏‏hich was packed. I met up with Helen & Kim who I was with in the Middle East & Jordan who I met in Portugal.

I don't think I actually did anything Friday except recover form Thursday night… Unless changing my flights counts as something. I'm coming home… Scary!!!! Beginning of Feb I'll be back in Oz. Oh, I was supposed to go out with Kim Friday night but I bailed then some of the boys from the hostel dragged me out to the Red Back… So the quiet night I hoped for didn't happen. Saturday I caught a train to Welling & I stayed at Kate's Saturday & Sunday. Saturday night we went to an Irish pub with lots of English people in it :D then on to a 4 story club called venue, 12 pounds to get in! It was a good night though.

Yesterday, Sunday, we went to Greenwich Park & looked through the observatory where time is taken from, well you know what I mean, & I stood on with one foot on either side of the meridian line – cheesy tourist!

Greenwich was lovely, kinda reminded me of the Rocks in Sydney. We wandered through the park, round the markets then down to the river. It was a really nice day out. I think that everything's catching up with me though. I've got a cold coming on & my shoulder's been aching for the last few weeks (combination of cold weather & carrying my pack (?)). I don't know if it's just my attitude or cause I'm feeling sick but I really can't be bothered doing anything… Maybe I'm just lazy :D

The hostel I'm staying at is cool, very laid back. I don't mind just chilling out here which is good… & bad cause it means I'll sit here & chill instead of going out exploring. Oh well, such is life :D

This afternoon I'm planning on doing a few things‏, I can't just waste a whole day… or can I… ;) I thought I might as well go on the London Eye & was thinking before that I could go for a wander round Notting Hill. I'll see how I feel after I've been up to the internet. Or maybe, I'll just see if I can find somewhere to get a massage that'll hopefully stop my shoulder aching...

Because I'm lacking motivation & can't be bothered figuring it out by myself I'm going to take a day tour down to Stonehenge for 57pounds, actually there's a 3 day tour that goes down that way that costs 70pounds… plus you pay for accommodation, I might h‎‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏‏ave a look at that for when I get back from Ireland… Decisions, decisions…
