Hey guys
Was gonna write this last night when I got home but I kinda forgot.
IT'S RAINING IN LONDON TODAY. Not much but still enough to put a spanner in the works. Meh can't complain really the weather has been so good lately so it wasn't going to last much longer.
It'd be nice if it clears up for the weekend.
So what did I do yesterday?
Not much really, did a bit of shopping, then left my aunty and went for a trip to the national gallery in trafalgar square. Everyone was trying to tell me how big the gallery was and I was presently underwhelmed at the size. However, there was still enough to see.
I'm not a huge fan of painting, I mean I appreciate the art work and I understand the beauty but, I don't know maybe it's the fact that it's only perceived from one angle.
That being said though there was one piece of artwork, which I already knew about, by to see it for real and actually experience was very good. It's a large painting of two guys in a room with plenty of things on the table. But what really commands your attention is a (at first glance) an out of place skewed smudge. But view it from side on, to the right, and it is a skull. It's pretty amazing to see.
So I figured I'd wander the streets and see what else was about. I spotted a few places I recognised from last time I was in London but what I noticed most was the bars. So I found one that was having it's happy hour and sat outside in the remainder of the sunlight and read my book for a bit.
Here's where it gets weird, like unbelievable weird.
Out of the blue I hear someone call out my name in surprise. I look up and see an old friend from high school Jamie Russell who I used to catch the bus with in the morning. He left Balwyn high in year 10 and wet to tafe. Hadn't seen him since then and he'd move to London about a year ago.
So there I am having a a beer and bump into one of the people I'd least expected to see AND HE WORKS FOUR DOORS DOWN FROM THE PUB I'M HAVING A BEER AT.
If someone knows the actual statistical probability of this happening please tell me because I'm stumped.
So if all good to plan we're gonna catch up for a proper drink before I go to Germany.
This all happened two days ago now an I'm off the bed so I'll write about the events of today tomorrow morning. I'd do it tonight but I'm a little tipsy from dinner (vodka for dessert) but that'll be explained as well as another crazy encounter....
A la prochaine
