Greenwich

Mel and i decided that we had to do a a bit of sight seeing around London after we walked along the Thames last Thursday night and realised that you don't have to spend a lot of money to have a good time. So on Saturday i whipped out the '50 Walks of London' my mum an dad got me before i left and we did Number 1 'Greenwich'

This is the Royal Naval College...which is something else now but all pretty impressive.

Across the road from that is a huge manor house where some Queen used to like hanging out, and the gardens are now a huge park. in the park on the top of the hill is the observatory...not just any old one, but the one with the Prime Meridian running through it!

After eating some huge Cream Scones we wandered around the town and looked though lots of markets filled with Antiques and vitage clothing and then one that was like the Rocks Markets.

It felt like i was in 'Bargain Hunt'...hehe

That night i spent it in the Freezing cold with the Duke of Edinburgh Kids...they had a camp out practice in the school grounds...it was heaps of fun till we had to freeze our butts off tring to sleep. At 5.30am i got up and piked... i went home and crashed for 3 hrs then came back to help clean up (the luxury of living on site)

Mel moved out of her place on Sunday, she's hanging out with me at my place for the week.

On Friday we head off to Brighton, then i'm on holiday for the week for 1/2 term break (how civilised)
