Our trip to London was an epic fail. On our first day there my mom wasn't feeling too great, so we got to the hotel and had a little sleep to get some energy and then made our way on the train to the Thames Barrier. We walked 4.5 miles to the Cutty Sark and then got the train to London Bridge and walked over to Tower Bridge for some dinner, except she only had a slice of pizza and like 10 chips cuz of feeling so bad :[ We made our way back to the hotel (via a random journey due to the trains to St Helier being cancelled, annoying!) and went to bed early, then woke up for a leisurely stroll from Putney Bridge back to the Cutty Sark so that all of that part of things was done. Except we barely made it half way to Battersea Bridge before I started feeling REALLY dodgy in the stomach department. Had to pretend to buy something in a cafe so I could be ill in peace before rushing back across London to our hotel - after almost vomiting EVERYWHERE right outside Wimbledon station. Yum. So yes, we spent the afternoon/evening in the hotel again doing very little. Managed to make it to the pub for a lemonade at 8pm before going back to vom. Slept really badly and drove home yesterday morning in time to take Barns out for a walk as my dad had managed to get the bug too that night! Oops.
So we went to London to finish walking the Thames Path and managed to do about 7 miles or so of it. Not really what we were hoping for! I think we're going to try again but cycle it this time - atleast we could get it all done in one go then.
I am banned from going into work until Friday now so am getting all my stuff done at home. Sadly I have no motivation to do any of that, especially when I look out my window and see the first gorgeous evening in a long time. I can't believe it's still so light out! I should be out there enjoying myself, not stuck in here pretending to work and procrastinating by doing housework (atleast I'm getting something useful done whilst i procrastinate - shampooed my carpet earlier, it was revolting what came out of it).
Time to watch TV and crochet. Doing much work seems to be futile.
Love.
(P.S. Blink have announced ALL of their European tour dates today. For the UK we have... Glasgow, Aberdeen, Reading and Leeds. That is it. Like, seriously. Do they want fans? They could sell-out Wembley for a 3-day weekend. They could sell-out Cardiff, Manc, B'ham, S'hampton. This is ridiculous. RIOT!)
