Back in London Town

We're just passing through on our way to the top end of Europe, as we're running out of money & Kyle needed to get to Germany, we decided to cut through UK instead of driving all that way. We figured it was about the same cost doing it this way instead of driving but would take less time & we get to see more Europian countries up the top end rather than just France & I want to see more!
So back in London for a few days only but jeez it helps speaking the same language, we found Spain really difficult & had to sort out a few things which was near impossible when it's a different language. We couldn't even find a laundrymat & we never got better at the meal deal.
I started to get really desperate for Spanish food so we walked the streets until we found something & ended up getting steak & lasagna with Acky Breaky Heart playing in the background. The next night we waited until later as it seemed everyone goes out late to eat, but again missed the mark & everything was closing so we got a few last tapas/pintos & beers, then walking home we hear fireworks, & there's a festival on the other side of town, I've had too much to drink so can't drive, & so we missed that too.
I think we just missed Spain all together!
Our crossing on the ferry was excellent, some funny entertainment, very calm waters & saw whales, many dolphins & some flying fish which was an unexpected bonus to the trip.
Saw a great movie, The Constant Gardener, if you want something to see it was very thought provoking & nothing of what I expected.

Those credit card checkers appear to do their job well, someone tried to use mine to buy a set of golf clubs for $8,500 glad someone was on the ball & put a bar on the card.

Only stopping for a few days to fix up that & sort some more freeloaders for Germany,
The money's tight now so things are a bit boring for the both of us, but managing to use the spare time to practice those circus skills, a reason for everything.
Hey who's the annonymous comment maker on the sight, reveal yourself, or maybe you're just a fly in & we have no idea who you are, but thanks for the comments anyway.
Pictures are still on the way & hope I'm next talking to you from Amsterdam or someplace exotic like that!!!
