Adventures of a working holiday in London
Yesterday I headed up to check out the ruins of the Roman Temple of Mithras here in London. What…what…WHAT you ask? There are still roman ruins in London? Yep! And within walking distance of my work, so for a lunch time wander, I headed up to check it out. I first heard of the temple in Edward Rutherfurd‘s […]
0 Comment » Wow! So Sunday night, Monday morning, it was the heaviest snow in 19 years! What a great finale for my time in England! I know, I know, I’m not leaving til September, but it’s great to have a proper snowfall here in London! The snow was about 15cm deep when I used my sophisticated finger and thumb measurement, […]
So on the 28th of November, we finally moved out of our old office and into our new office in Waterloo. Starting at 8.30am and working non stop til 9:30pm, myself and Matt managed to transplant our office from Victoria to Waterloo and set up our IT infrastructure ready (mostly) for the rest of the […]
So, Autumn has pretty much come and gone since my last post. Being my last Autumn in England, I’ve become quite excited by the deciduous trees, and have been taking heaps of photos for Dad as he asked me last year and I had to admit I hadn’t even noticed. So here’s a pic for […]
Whilst mum and dad have been over here, we’ve been lucky enough to be housesitting for friends who live in Fulham in London. So here are some photos from the Fulham/Putney area. First up is an ad for Bogan Bingo at The Slug pub in Fulham. The Slug has a good antipodean feel and for […]
Mum and Dad arrived yesterday, and I went and picked them up from Heathrow Airport, so this seemed like a good topic for the Friday Photo! Mum and Dad will be over here for about 8 weeks with a couple of weeks in London, a couple travelling around the UK (Land’s End to John O’Groats) […]
A few photos for the week, starting with our regular Friday night pub fun (the Friday before last in fact). A few of us headed down for some after work drinks at The Barley Mow. First up, a fruit machine. This is the english version of a pokie except they generally only have 1 or […]
For the final Friday photo for July (or first for August) I’ll show Richmond Park. We live 10 minutes walk from Richmond Park, and it’s like entering another world. Richmond Park is the largest open space in London covering almost 1000 hectares (2500 acres). So it’s like a little trip to the country almost in […]
So I didn’t post about my birthday, so I thought I’d use the Friday photo to show my work party. My workmates really got into the Aussie theme and all donned homemade koala masks as well as had a couple of Aussie cork hats. Then we headed out to the Walkabout Aussie pub! And on […]
Oooops, missed it again. Sigh! Well here it is, some crazy looking weather in this, Summer… *shakes head* And a cool church just near our place.
