London Saturday 24th March

We began this morning with a bit of shopping on Oxford Street. It was orignianlly to buy Josh an overcoat for work - you will see it in the photos. When Josh brought it he stepped out onto the street and said "Look at me, I have a coat, I am like a London man" (aka Borat). It was hilarious, if we had a video camera i would put it on the blog for all of you. Anyway, we also ended up buying Josh another skivey because I did the washing last night and shrank everything!!!!! Oh yeah!!! It's a washing machine and dryer all in one and i'm not quite sure how to use it, so it may have been the dryer (which took 3 hrs to dry the clothes) or maybe i washed it all in hot water!! Who knows but i'm going to have to read the manual before i'm allowed anymore pocket money for doing the washing! When we were buying the suit we met a general in the kuwait army! we wanted to ask for a photo but didn't think he would like it much! We went to Marks and Spencers and Josh brought a cheese and chutney sandwhich - we took a photo of it - just for you claire. We also visited Harrods - very fancy - we only brought a chocolate truffle each. We tried to take a picture of one set of escalators they have, which is done in an Egyptian theme, but it didn't come out that well. The food part of Harrods was amazing, you could choose your food, then you would wait in a cue till a seat was free and they would cook the food for you. It was like a market only all indoors and all gourmeat food - you could obviously take it with you to.
