Well only 1 more day at work, we fly out a week tomorrow, we had our work leaving do lastnight so there are a load of sore heads in the office. The leaving do was good, it was nice to catch up with people who I haven't seen for a while and probably wont see for a few years.

Well its been about two weeks since I last had a chance to blog and its also two weeks till we fly out, wahoo wahoo. OK so over the last two weeks we seem to have been either drinking, hungover or a sleep went and stayed with Fran and James in Alton had a yummy dinner and got to see there new house, had dinner with Jane and Richard and then with Dave and Lucy, the christmas party on tuesday finally managed to catch up with David Maurice on Thursday then had leaving drinks with a load of friends in covent garden last night, needless to say Emma and I spent today lying round doing sod all today. It beginning to get more than a little weird now, we still haven't finished packing, ok we haven't really started yet , we had our last day at work with Ash on friday and wont see some people again until either we come back up here or they come down and visit.

Spent the weekend in Brighton with some of Emmas friends, Emma, Ali,Phil and Andy, stayed at Emma and Andy's cool flat in Kemp town. Got there on Saturday afternoon and had a lax evening of yummy food and too much wine. On Sunday all woke up rather late and went for a wander to the Tin Drum and had a rather greasy breakfast, although if you are going to go, stay clear of there mushrooms, they taste strange.Muppet

Borris Johnson was the presenter of Have I got News for You lastnight, I think he was probably the best so far although I'm not sure if it would be brilliant if he was always presenting, get Jonathan Ross I say. Looks like they are all lining up to have a go, but will we see our Tony, I think not. Check out who directed the latest James bond.

Well we lost the rugby, boooo. Also for the first time in 25 years ( ish ) the fire fighters in England have gone on strike for 48 hours with strikes later on for 8 days, no one play with matches. Also a guy has been freed after 25 years in jail. What do you say, sorry ummmmm yeah 1/3 of your life in jail, ummm yeah, here is a fiver. Anyway, its getting towards the sharp end of the year, not sure if Emma and I have a free weekend before we fly out, mwaaaa. Getting very excited about the move, wanna get there now, find a job and start enjoying it (before anyone says anything, yes I will miss people here).

Emma and I went for a wander to Leighton House today, wonderful day, nice and crisp. Leighton house was brillant although one would imagine not that amazing to live in. On the way to the tube we even managed to find me a fleece type jacket. It is a Mac Pac Vapour Jacketwhich, seems warm enough, isn't too bulky or hot so I may even wear it more than once. This is it.

Righto, remembered what I was going to say before. Emma's friend Jane is over from US for a week so we went out for dinner on monday night, we met up at her hotel, went for a few drinks in a near by bar and ended up at Pescatori for some nosh, was most yummy. Had to go into work on tuesday for half a day to help out Ash, as there was a bit of a server crisis, it all seems under control now but was a bit of a hassle ( Massive under statement) . It does however continually surprise me how little some people think before opening there mouths in a time of total panic, anyway glad I was only in for half a day. After my wee jaunt back to work Emma and I went for lunch at L 'Escargot , was most yummy and I would recomend eating there yum yum yum.

Went to Neela and Steves last night, to say hello and see the new pad. After all the warnings about the wallpaper and carpets, it was a bit of a let down, the patterns are a bit odd and the carpet colours are interesting, but nothing as bad as Neela had made out. The evening started out normal enough but after a few drinks we ended up comparing each others heights by drawing on the walls, I don't think steve was very impressed, but I guess they wont be loosing there bond :D. Neela made lots of yummy food so everyone is a lot fatter now, mostly veggie and very bloody hot. Then Mit�l gave Emma and I a lift back into london in her spunky new Peugeot 206, which was nice of her.

Went to Clare and Als lastnight for dinner, was cool to catch up haven't seen them for a while, ended up playing all together to much Virtua Fighter 4(Hmmm you may wanna find an English link). Lisa is in London this weekend so she came by this morning and we all went for a wander round, ended up going to St James park then to Cabient War rooms, which was kinda cool, although the women on the desk was a total mutt, ability to talk to people, nooooooooooooooooo.
