Yeah, I got the job that I was after. And because it was the one I was after, I accepted it there and then. It pays REALLY well, with free accommodation to boot. Plus I have plenty of additional training opportunities as well, which is always a good thing. I hate hitting plateau's.

I'm going to be living in a cabin for the first two or three months - only until my manger sources me a little two up two down house.

Congratulations :)

Free accommodation and good pay? So you're definitely coming to London next year then!

Oh for sure. Plus, I'm only a ten minute drive from the nearest station - so I can still get direct trains to London Bridge.

London Bridge exists in London? I thought it was in Arizona. Mind blown!

Well, when they ACTUALLY get round to finishing the station revamp and start running the Thameslink Route properly again, then yes. But for now, London Bridge might as well be back in Arizona!

No idea. I think it was 10 years since I was last in London lol.

Either way, we'll have to do the whole tourist thing too. Promised some friends some photos of our Cathedrals and the like.

I'd like to go to the archives too to print stuff off, so wear comfy shoes lol.

I'm a regular commuter who was born in Central London - so if it's a tour you want, then I'm your man. I've never once made a mistake on the tube. (I bet I make one now.)

Chinatown is a dead cert for me. I can't go to London without going there.

If we get time, I'll take you to this all you can eat steak house that I have a LONG history with. I once ate so much there, that on the train back, I fell into a semi-coma after Clapham Junction and barely moved for the duration of the journey. I felt as if I had concrete sitting in my stomach.

Its called Wifi at home and data on the road. Ive got 10gb a month and barely use it til recently, with roll over, I shouldn't have to worry for awhile.

Yes, thats the way I do it too.

But I do know some people that are stupid enough to cross the 3g/4g data limit, so they are watching/doing things to consume much more data :doh:

London Bridge...For the Record, This:

IS NOT the London Bridge.

Chinatown is in Leicester Square.

And no, that's Tower Bridge. London Bridge Station is pretty much next door to it.

Gosh, I haven't had one of those since entering this 'healthy' phase. Such glorious temptation...

Also London is fabulous. So yeah. Everyone should come and enjoy themselves.

Must admit though, getting the tube at night can be a bit like spot the bed bug. Those little critters are all over the place. Their mating habits are pretty grotesque too, vile little things. Interesting though. Which makes up for it.

I would drink you under the table ha ha ha

Yeah I thought I could sense that with Patrick, since he did tag you first before the girls....


Though of course am invisible, I might go and eat some big fat worms.

Are you in London or near it ?


I usually drive to Redbridge and then get the underground. Though on a Sunday at the tower of London car park it's 2.50 for the whole day and you just miss the charges too bonus .

No, seriously, you would. Give me a couple of Irn Bru's and I'm anyone's.

Yeah, Patrick used to tag my name in all of the threads back in the day. He denied it, but I knew it was him.

Hahaha if you see a skirt then it's yours

sadly my drinking days are over, like that.

@TheGirlOnFire I'm in Brixton marra.

£2.50? That's not bad for parking.

Yeah I know we were like wow just wow ha ha

mmmm...... maybe we should have CF get together.

I probably will end up moving again down south, after University since most of the jobs are down that way... possible maybe.
