Off to Spain

I don't know what all the fuss about London weather is about, we've been here 7 days and had 7days of sunshine. It's been excellent. And with that luck I am happy to be heading out of London while the goings relatively good. But before I do I'd like to comment on a couple of things. I've found London quite frank in its business, for instance all the gay bars we walked past were called GAY bar. The sex shops had signs outside that said 'Porn in the basement', and we past an all you can eat noodle bar called Phat Phuc noodle bar. It's pretty funny.
Yesterday we went to the Globe theatre and saw the Merchant of Venice, it was pretty cool, we had to stand for three hours on account of only paying £5 for the tickets but it was worth it. After that things got a bit gloomy. I had forgotten my jacket, and although relatively sunny, it got pretty damn cold, and now I'm sick, not too bad though. We saw a guy threatening to jump off a bridge. By the size of the fall I doubt it would have killed him, and luckily it didn't come to that, cos police talked him out of it. Still it was pretty sad seeing a man that desperate. And a bit sick seeing everyone get their cameras out to take photos, I mena Jesus some people really are low.
Finally I'm very sad to say I heeard news of the death of a class mate back home. George died of cancer, which is incredibly sad, he was far too young and far too nice of a guy. My heart goes out to his friends and family.
Anyway, now we catch the bus to Stansted and from there fly to Spain, should be good.
Catch y'all.
