We went up to Cambridge overnight which was fun. Getting out of London was good and it is a beautiful town. The weather was perfect so our architectural walk (are you seeing a pattern??) was very pleasant. Dave and Stu and it was quite sad to see them go. This was compounded by having a 'mid-holiday freak out' so thank you very much to my very dear friends who talked me through this one!! It was also helped by the fabulous news of the Hawks being in the grand final and I have been wearing my Hawks scarf with pride ever since. I have had Australians coming up to me to wish me all the best for Saturday...hmmm...do they realise that I am not actually on the team?? Well, why split hairs? I will be going to a grand final party and watching it live which will be ace.
In the two weeks I have also been to Oxford which was another wonderful overnight trip and have continued exploring. It was nice to see Kath this last week and see a play with her. We saw the Mousetrap (don't you have to see the longest running west end production when you are in London?) which was really good. I have also seen Ivanov (a Chekhov play adapted by Tom Stoppard which starred Kenneth Branagh. It was pretty dark but really good. I have seen and done so many things in England but I should probably give you a rest!
I'll write more soon and hopefully put in some photos!
Go Hawks!
