We now have three days till we leave for Europe, getting a bit exited I must say, Only problem is we have to meet our bus at 6:30am on Thursday morning. We still have to buy some sleeping bags and pillows for the trip. A reason why it was much cheaper than the others. We have found a good shop called Argos where we can pick up a sleeping bag for 10 pound about 25 bucks which isn’t bad. Will pick that up tomorrow along will pillows and a doona.
At the moment we are staying at Marisa and Rich house as there were no hostels available for Saturday the 11th not 100% sure why that was something big must have been happening unless it was all for the parade. Marisa and Rich have been kind enough to let us stay here until Thursday. It has been a great help as we have been able to unpack our bags and work out what we will be taking around Europe with us.
What else have we been up to these past few days? I shall tell you. On Saturday we moved our stuff over to Marisa and Rich’s place and then went out to purchase some cushion beds for me and Kieran to sleep on, from a place called ‘ the futon company’ and ended up at a pub for lun

On Sunday we met up with Marisa and Rich and headed out for a good old fashioned big greasy English breaky. There were massive amounts of food even I couldn’t finish. After breaky we went out to the Camden town markets. Kieran and I have both agreed when we get some money we will go back there to buy some proper winter jackets. After the market we left Marisa and Rich and headed off to Leicester square to meet up with another guy I used to work with Ben. Caught up on the differences of English life and some hot tips we should know.
Ohhh btw Kieran and I are now proper English people as we have an oyster card. It’s like a prepaid card where you top it up with money and use it to catch a train or bus. A lot easier than buying tickets for every trip especially if ur like us and not 100% sure on where you will end up.
Today (Monday) Kieran and I went to Harrods, very interesting shop to walk through. We ended up sitting down to have a sundae. We needed a break from all the walking and if any of you know Kieran then we defiantly had to stop for ice cream. It was a good meal and worth the


Now we have returned home to rework our bags again and update the blog/emails from the local pub which has wi-fi aahh the joys of English pubs updating a blog with a pint in hand.
Cheers for now
Glen and Kieran
PS Happy Birthday Jarrod and Greg, Hope you both had good days.
