Mid-March Update

Hello everyone,

Just thought I would check in and do a mid-month update!

Mar 3 was my birthday, and we had a great time on Brick Lane having a curry with Ken and John. I headed back to Guernsey for a few days on Mar 4 and I swear my hotel room was haunted. First night the TV came on by itself, second night the hotel lost power for 4 hours (thank goodness they provided a free bottle of wine and a flash light) and then on the third night the waiter in the restaurant told me a woman ghost haunted my floor!! Needless to say, I didnt sleep well at all!

Saturday Scott took me to The Sound of Music in West End http://www.soundofmusiclondon.com/ It was great! Not exactly Julie Andrews and Christopher Plummer, but it was good. We then hit a champagne bar before going for dinner.

On Sunday Allan Tang came for a visit and we all headed out to the Lamb and Flag in Covent Garden for several beers. Monday we went to see Avenue Q with Ken, as one of his friends is in the show. I wasnt expecting to like it but it was HILARIOUS...very very funny and much more than 'dirty muppets' that I'd heard it was. Highly recommend it. http://www.avenueqthemusical.co.uk/homepage.php

We head to Amsterdam next weekend for Easter. I've been but only stayed 1 day. Cant wait to go back, some of the tulips should be in bloom and I remember it being a beautiful city. Keep your fingers crossed that it doesnt rain all weekend!!

I was in Holland about this time of the year, 7-8 years back. Taking the trains between cities was a very colourful journey, as there were fields upon fields of tulips.

Amsterdam is just a wonderful place to wander around and walk - not to mention all the amazing buildings and museums.

Hope you enjoy!

Day Twelve – The Adventures of Mr. Creosote – May 31, 2011

Today was our Cognac adventure day, plus we ate the largest dinner known to man. I feel like Mr. Creosote just before he had the wafer thin...
