Busy weekend in London

We just had the most amazing weather again in London. It was great. The sun was out with hardly a cloud in the sky. So DIY Lee was out again and this weekend was finishing off the front path as we needed to add the fancy bits beside the cement. I can proudly say that I dug my very first trench. Lee and Benny may have said I dug just a little too dip I thought it was perfect. While I'm writing now it is 8:15pm on Sunday and the boys are doing some work on the raised garden bed. Who knew the office workers could be so handy out in the yard. Lee does think it is weird that we call it dirt as the British call it soil. I had a great time digging as there was no worry of spiders, insects or  toads. All I came across was cute little worms. Benny is now an expert in mixing not just concrete but mortar as well. We didn't expect that coming to London we would learn so many handy DIY tricks. I have told Benny that maybe we could lay some pavers at the Taringa apartment when we get back. We are still working out the exact plans for next weekend.

After the DIY day we went to meet some of Lee and Melissa's friends at Regents Park. Regents Park is so lovely. We went down round 6pm and sat drinking pear cider, beers and eating lovely nibbles. There were so many people out soaking up the sun. It was a little weird seeing people sun baking in their togs beside a duck pond, but I guess they are not as spoilt as us with the sandy beaches. It was such a lovely evening, we're looking forward to many more times in Regent Park.

Today we had an arty farty day. We went and met my friend Nathan and some of his friends to visit the Victoria & Albert Gallery. It was such an amazing building and according to Google the greatest art and design museum in the world. I would have to agree.  You can't see the whole gallery in a day as there is so much to explore. We were only there for a few hours and we only saw 3 rooms - jewelry, theatre costumes and photography. We had a great lunch at the gallery as well. The room was a mix of very old with modern. Benny and Nathan had meal jealousy as I had the most amazing frittarta I have ever had in my whole life.

Tonight I'm preparing for my job interview tomorrow at great ad agency. Hopefully it will be okay as I've done a lot of research into the company and client. Fingers crossed. We also have another appointment with a real estate agent in Putney. We think he might be the one who can find us the perfect place as he is a lucky little Irish man.
