Fancy Dress

This weekend Josh and I went out with the Howard's on Friday night to a great Chinese place in Soho and ate heaps!  Nice Lychee cocktail!  Then on Saturday night we went out to Kent for a fancy dress house warming party for a girl who played on Josh's touch rugby team.  On the Monday night we went out to tesco to get our costumes - not bad for under £10!  Because the house was in Kent we went out at 4pm as the last train home was 1130pm - so not a late night but definitely a good time! 

We Won The World Cup!!!!!!

 On Saturday we had a really nice lazy start to the day, and took a wander around Bermondsy before we headed into One Exchange (Shopping Mall at St Pauls) and did a bit of shopping.  And saw the protestors and all the police protecting Topshop!  Then we went back to Borough Market and celebrated what we hoped would be a world cup win with Champagne and Oysters before heading out for dinner.

Thank goodness we won!  A bit tense!  Our day started quite stressful as we decided to go to a NZ pub in Battersea with Mike and Steph.  We got there at 8am and joined the queue, but by 8.30 when we weren't being let in we left as we decided we did not want to watch the final on the iphone!  We drove around clapham to find another pub, thought we where going to be out of luck but finally found one!  So glad we won!!  Had a nice breakfast at a NZ cafe before heading to church then back home for more wine (Carva this time - spent all our money yesterday) and seafood!!!  Shame about work tomorrow!

October Update

Josh, Mayank and Steve cooking lunch!  Good sports those Aussies!

 In the pub from left around the table: Janaki, Audrey, Sarah-Beth, Tim, Mayank, Josh, Steve, Larissa, Oliver, Nick.

Since we have got back from Peru we have not done much but see friends and watch rugby - usually both the Saturday and the Sunday game.  This weekend we went out for bike ride on the Saturday to Battersea Park with Larissa and Steve, then out to Fulham to see Mayank and Janaki and then back home - 24km in total - and a nice sunny day in London - although a little chilly.  Then Sunday we went around to the Howards (Australian) and watch the All Blacks win - how exciting.  We where joined by Mayank and Janaki (Australian) and Audrey, Nick and Oliver (New Zealand).  Good thing they are good sports because they cooked a pancake breakfast, followed by a BBQ lunch then off to pub for a roast dinner - where we where joined by Tim (English) and Sarah-Beth (American).  We came home at about 9pm having spent all day out.  In fact this is beginning to be  a Sunday theme as last Sunday we watch the game here with Steve, then met Mayank and Janaki at the pub for lunch which became dinner and home at 10pm!
