Ben's in London Town!

Hi All

Well i thought that seeing as Matty has been the on-to-it one and kept this Blog going, it was about time that i wrote a post! So here it is all about the weekend just been....

Ben (aka Ben Jones, Benjo and Benji) came down on Friday for a long weekend and we had a great time! Friday night we went and experienced the nightlife in London city, man it was packed in Piccadilly Circus and Leicester Square. We ended up in a club that has 3 separate dance floor each with different music playing, so we moved between them all. It’s been our latest night out in London so far, heading home after 4am (most pubs and bars are closed by 1am, maybe 2am).

Saturday was a sunny day in Green Park. Our first proper day of summer, we even got sun burnt… don’t worry mum we were wearing a little bit of sunscreen… the sun here is so not harsh like back home. We were in the sun from 2-7pm and yes we got brown/red but it didn’t really hurt at all! Sat night was just relaxing at home as we were pretty tired from the night before and the sun had taken it out of us as well.

Sunday we went to Greenwich, where the Greenwich time line runs through, with Ben, Ray, Suze (one of our flatmates and my work colleague) and her friend, Nats. We went there on a boat cruise down the Thames River, which was very cool. Once there we went to a pub and had lunch in the beer garden, we were loving the sun. Then off to another pub to watch the second half of the footie – Chelsea vs ManU – lets not talk about the result, lets just say that I was not happy! After that we were off for a walk up the hill to see the gorgeous views over the East side of London and to stand on the famous Greenwich time line.

Monday, Ben and I went for out to do some more sight seeing, Matty had to be at work at 2.30pm but I took the day off work. We started off by dropping Matty at work and then wondered to Oxford Street for Ben to experience the craziness that is London town shoppers (and it wasn't even the weekend!) and some of the very posh shops with all the tops brands. We followed this by going to the Tower of London (For those who don’t know, this is actually a wicked castle, not a tower!) and it is where the crown jewels are kept. Our walk took us over the Tower Bridge and to the other side of the Thames where we wondered a long way down passing some cool artistic guitars, and a water fountain that Ben just couldn’t resist running through! Was very funny!!
Tuesday Ben was back on the bus heading home and I was off to Court in the morning for my work, (oh yeah we won again!) But not to worry, Matty had a late shift, so he showed Benjo off before heading to work.

Well that is all from me for now.

Love ya All!
Hope you are all good and well.
