The day to day commings and goings of a traveller at a standstill.....



Stop worrying about the potholes in the road and enjoy the journy

Rushing rushing always rushing

Ill start off with a little about our recent trip to London town... it was lovely darling lots of seeing friends eating good (tasting slightly bad for you) food and generally relaxing we took in all the sights as we played tour guide and i realised i miss living in London this trip did a pretty good job of convincing us when we get back from Africa London is where we want to be.

(below i have included a picture of me and a squirrel just for the fun of it)


We have become accustomed to the slower pace of life that Cornwall has to offer theres no rushing to get to where you want to be its more relaxed,calmer the world is more at peace with itself...so it seems strange that as soon as we arrived at Paddington station we were back in the swing of things...in London everyone is always rushing everywhere...now Ive touched on this before Patience is a virtue and all that jazz but i don't think many londoners have Patience.... whilst we were there the lovely folks at transport for London decided to have a tube strike (any other week would have been fine with me!) so there was about a quadjillion million bajillion more cars on the road (then the normal million hundred or so) which is fine I'm down with people trying to get where they need to be but does that have to include being in the bus lane when your not a bus?...or indicating to change lanes then sitting blocking the traffic because no one will let you in? we have already established I'm lacking in the Patience department but i was even more fired up due to the fact i needed to catch a train and if i missed it i had zero pounds to my name to buy a new one (this fact made no difference when i did get to the station with moments to spare they were taking any tickets for that day so i could have been late if only i had Patience....) when we get back from Africa next year i think I'll have the Patience thing going for me....one can only hope....
