This week has been a bit busier as far as a social life is concerned. Mid week we did our own thing to some extent. Monday night Damien had to work late, but the good news for the most part the work is now done, so it will settle down a little bit (contracted until end of Jan). Tuesday night Christine and a couple of the girls we live with headed out for dinner and to a play in town. Wednesday we just chilled out at home and ate a Red Curry that Damien cooked, very spicy!
Thursday night Damien headed to the winter wonderland at Hyde Park. This is the same place we went to a week ago with Malcolm and Irma. There was about 15 of us there from work, we ice skated, played a Secret Santa game and then had a few drinks to finish the night off.
Saturday morning we were up at a reasonable time for our cooked breakfast and had the best intentions of heading out to a museum or gallery. We ended up spending most of the day on the internet, looking at deals for over the Christmas period. The good news is we got to a point where we decided to book some flights and accommodation in Cologne, Germany. We then spent what was left of the day at the Portabello Market, a short walk from where we are staying. Most of the market was like a trash and treasure market but we did have a very late lunch, Churizo sandwhich and Churros… mmm!
Saturday night the hostel was jumping, with a party being thrown for two of the girls leaving this week after the best part of 2 years in London. Turned out to be quite a late night.
Sunday was a very lazy day, exhausted after a long week and big night on Saturday. A big sleep in, a walk in Hyde Park and that was about it!
