Birthdays and beers!

We have had a great birthday weekend here in London Town. We booked for the Tower of London on the Friday and got there (fairly) early at 10.30am to avoid the worst of the school holiday crowds. After spending a good couple of hours enjoying one of London’s biggest tourist attractions, we headed down to Portobello Markets for some browsing and some lunch. That night we made for Angel to meet up with J, Bec, Nathan and Ryan at the Camden Head for some celebratory drinks, continuing on at the local Walkie until we had to run to catch the last tube home.
Saturday we decided to pay a visit to London's big new Westfields. We picked up some great bargains, although were a little disappointed that a certain Portuguese chicken place was not among the numerous food options! (The Boost juice really hit the spot though!) Sunday we hit O'Neills for some lunch, before embarking on a (unsuccessful) mission to Brick Lane in search of some of those cheapo DVD's.
In other news, unfortunately living at the pub at Angel just didn’t stick, so we are now down here at Clapham South in a share house, living with 3 others. A little hard to get used to at first, but it’s working out OK and Clapham is a lovely area. We are here until we go away, so for about the next 7 weeks.
Will update again after our trip out to the Cotswolds on Sunday (fingers crossed for a nice day!) We have also entered the ballot for a 20/20 county cricket match at Lords (seeing we won’t make it to the Ashes after all) to be played the day after we return from Norway, and we should find out shortly if we have been successful.
Hope everyone is well.
