New Year

Our last day of the Christmas break we headed to the Camden markets. This part of town has a bit more colour than most of London and is based on a canal so it is quite nice. Most of the markets are junk and clothes, but I did buy a spring roll! Work has been crazy since we got back. First week back was quite ok but I worked 6 days last week (sunday off), plus 2 nights were VERY late nights.
We have also had a visit from Christine’s cousin-in-law, Andrea. It was great timing, as the night she arrived the snow hit. This meant London looked good, but also Christine had 2 days off school. The girls did a number of the touristy things and saw Billy Elliot the musical.

Its been very cold and snowy, which I like, London looks so much nicer with snow. Sadly this week is warmer, snow melted, but still very cold 8-10 deg celcius.
Christine has realised she has 2 weeks off in Feb, a week at Easter and then wont be working at all in April. My contract finishes at the start of Feb.
