So not long after getting back into London I had something to look forward to as one of my closest friends and her boyfriend were coming to stay with us!!! Erin and Damien had been travelling for 3 weeks around France, Spain and England and were stopping in London before heading back to Brisbane. They got the pleasure of staying on our teeny sofa couch in our little apartment. Was so great to have them here...I was in need of Erin hugs. And by gosh they were good!
The first night here, we had a few drinks and dinner and prepared for the next day of sightseeing. As Damien had already been here before it was all up to Erin where we went, she was not too fussed about seeing the traditional tourists sights instead opting for a stint or two as it turned out, in Oxford Street, London's famous shopping street. Here we only made it the corner of this street before we had to stop for a break as Ez had already spent her budget for the day...only to return at the end of the weekend for a wee bit more! Mainly, the time spent with them was mainly in pubs and restaurants as they were very excited about being back in a country where they could actually understand the language as a few of their trips took them to regional places where English was not spoken! Also, Damien's main aim was to eat as much sausages and mash as possible!! We also had an afternoon out where we met Erin's second cousin Peter who lives here and managed to drink a fair bit of cider and quite a few glasses of G & T's!! Was just so lovely to have our friends with us. Thanks for visiting us Erin and Damien!!
