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 is a 9-5 job – actually probably longer. It’s cut into our sight-seeing time before we tuck into work, but it’s definitely familiarising us to the suburbs, tube stops etc. We’ve already had 3 Brits ask where this or that tube stop is, and surprisingly we’ve been able to point them in the right direction. Actually, it felt pretty damn awesome!
There hasn’t been anything majorly exciting for us, but there are heaps of little things that I find amusing. These will come to light in later posts as I ponder them.
Leave you guys with a couple of teasers!
*common greeting among Brits – how they say what’s up, how’s it goin’?
aww how fun!!! You guys are going to have so much fun. I hope you find a flat soon. xoxoxox

He he… funny ‘local’ terms… you’re going to come home talking like an alien and we’ll just smile and nod at you.
Glad your exploring somewhat… can imagine how frustrating it is to find a place to stay when all you want to do is explore the foreign city!
Keep safe and say hello to Queen Lizzie for moi
