Revolutionary Rants

So, the trip to London was very good. Sandra and I headed off from a rain soaked Huddersfield, via Sheffield and an enormous cup of coffee, to the capital city of England.

Having checked in we decided to be proper tourist and head straight off in to the wide world of London. We went and viewed Nelson all wrapped up in scaffolding, Sauret and Van Gogh, the National Portrait Gallery, Covent Garden, tried in vain to get theatre tickets at Leicester Square and the National Theatre and ate tuna salad in Hyde park before bed.

The next day we visited Camden market, where Sandra bought the best skirt ever seen, and we were frightened by creepy goth shop keepers. Then we did a mamoth tour of the Natural Histroy Museum, the Science Museum and the Victoia and Albert Museum. Ater which we had a drink in Leicester Square’s Wetherspoons, brought lots of soy sauce in China Town and went back to hang out in Paddington.

A busy weekend indeed - and when I got back there was Chicken on the station with a half dozen red roses! Crazy sh*t…

We have now told almost all the important people we needed to tell first so:

CHRIS HAS A JOB!!!!!!!!!

It is as a Linux administrator in Barnstaple. We have very mixed feelings about leaving Huddersfield, as until recently we had planned on staying here for a few years and then heading to the South West later in life - and with more money behind us - but this job came up and Chris applied on the off-chance (thinking from the advert he would have too little experience to get it). But he got it!

Not exactly sure what I will do now though, other than finish my dissertation and babysit!

So, things are both exciting and sad at the moment, with a new life and job ahead but one we love a lot behind us, too…

Very, very, very sad about last night. Many a tear was shed in Varsity, Huddersfield, I can tell you…
