London has been much as could be expected. Lots of drinking and partying and riding the tube like rawkus idiots. Thursday started out some place Ben had heard about with one pound vodkas. We got messy and all lost each other. Friday we went out with Sam, Shirley, Tim and Jared to Tiger Tiger. I had always heard so much about that place and never got a chance to go last time. It was pretty decent really. Damn expensive, but I would quickly discover that is a bit of a theme with London. Ten pound cover charges no longer surprise me. In fact they come as a pleasant surprise.
Saturday we went to school disco. It's a big party at the forum (same venue as the Church) where everyone dresses up as school kids. Good times. Once again things got messy but at least Ben, Jared and I made it home together in one piece. Albeit I have sustained quite a few unexplained cuts and bruises over the course of the weekend.
A new drinking game has settled in. Less focused on drinking, it's more just a fun social event before we head out. Pirates. If anyone has seen Pirates of the Caribbean 2 they will have seen the dice game they play. Actually my Dad first taught me this game when we were in Meribel back in 2004. Each person starts with a certain number of dice (depending on how many people play) and needs to guess how many of any given number are on the table in total. Hard to explain, easy to learn. I highly recommend checking it out.
Yesterday I made my mandatory stop at the Walkabout in Shepherd's Bush. The most famous of Australian bars in London. Good quality Aussie rock and lots of snake bites (Beer, Cider and Ribina) Once again we got separated and I got a little lost. Actually that's an understatement. I actually got completely lost and had to walk for close to 5 hours in the rain. What can I say, London is a big city. I was a little cold. Actually that's an understatement.
