What is that bright thing in the sky?

Well what do you know, the sun still exists! After prolonged periods of plain grey skies and the occaisional drop of snow (yet there hasn't been much rain?) the sun was out in full force with a perfect crystal blue sky just waiting to be walked out in to. That is exactly what Jess and I did too! We closed our eyes pointed to a map of London and our fingers landed on Hampstead Heath, where the grass is green and the animals (kids) play! It was the perfect destination to test out Jess's brand spankin' new Canon Power Shot G7 that was delivered fresh from Amazon this morning. It made my photographs from my Sony cybershot look like preschool potato prints it's that good! But unfortunately for Jess, she only had a 32mb SD card to play with (along with Mana's 16mb one that Jess borrowed) while she awaits the delivery of her 1Gb card. It was such a beautiful day and anyone that didn't (or hasn't for that matter) dropped in to Hampstead Heath, are missing out! There's so much greenery along with the ponds and animals that await your viewing it was a shame we didn't get all romantic like and bring along the vino, cheese and pic-a-nic basket! But then all the photos we would've consisted of us both consuming food and liquor which I'm sure you would all love to see! :P

Afterwards, as it is NZ's Waitangi Day (Australia Day ala New Zealand) celebrations which took place today, Jess and I went along to see the pseudo-Australians party it up and see the Haka performed in the middle of parliment square in Westminster (right outside Westminster Abbey). I myself thought it was a bit of a fizzer as I couldn't even hear the Haka let alone see it. But then again I hadn't been drinking on the Circle/District line pub crawl since 10am, that's alot of stops!

Tonight we are celebrating Debs Anniversary of living in London at her house and the Vodka and Red Bull is already flowing so who knows what the night will bring but I'll be sure to give you the heads up tomorrow once I put myself back together like Lego in the morning when my eyesight isn't so fuzzy I can type again. Pete's back in town after being in Brisbane for a holiday playing up as much as he could, bearing a humongous bottle of Bundy for me to devour which is a taste from home I dearly miss along with the thick cut steaks and mushroom sauce my old mate dishes up with perfection everytime. Anyway peoples, I'm doing my best to keep this thing of mine updated so keep checking back 'orrite! Stay well and enjoy your weekend while it lasts! Gav.
