Finally
It is quite possible, that we’ve found heaven…as we know it. A random suggestion to visit London Bridge has lead us to the goldmine that is Borough Market. We had no idea what would be at London Bridge, well, besides a bridge. So when we stepped off the bus and saw a sign saying “Borough Market This Way”, we shrugged our shoulders and followed the sign pointing into a dingy under-the-bridge tunnel… the rest of the day was a blur… It was like the pot of gold at the end…Read More
Inspiration

You A’right?*
It’s been 1 week since me and A arrived in ye’ old London, so I do apologise that I haven’t updated everyone earlier! I promise that we are both well! Our first week has been light, mostly getting used to the transport system – which puts Australia’s to SHAME!!! Tube (trains system) and buses run constantly to late. And night (12-5am) or 24hr buses are the norm. I question why anybody would want to drive here!? We’ve spent much more time online than we wanted – searching for a flat…Read More
