It's late so it will have to be a quick update
Well Dad, Jerry & I met up in Camden Town yesterday for a late breakfast followed by a mini tour of the CT market & then the canal tour down to Little Venice. We got off the boat & had some lunch (Magnum ice cream bars - yummers!!) While there I was in touch with Amanda via text messaging, so we decided to meet up at 16.30 at Euston Square Station to go for Bangladeshi food with our mate Sohel. So we grabbed the next boat back to CT, rode the 24 bus down to Gower Street & walked over to the ES tube station, where we met up with Sohel, Amanda & Dom. We then took the Hammersmith & City line over to Whitechapel for dinner. We decided to let Sohel order for all of us, we eat fish native to Bangladesh, lamb curries, chicken curries, nan bread, and 2 types of rice. It was DELISH!!! Jerry had to leave early to make a play, but the rest of us stayed until we were podged, then made our way back into central London to meet up with some of our mates from uni. We all met up at the College Arms around 20.15.We had left over pasta for lunch today followed by a semi lazy yet productive day . . . Dad took a nap while I packed 2 boxes of books and uni notes & emptied out all my desk drawers :) At 15.30 we left for Angel to catch the 16.20 showing of Cars, which was pretty good but not one of the best Pixar movies I've seen. Then we popped into Marks & Spencers for some veg to go with our frozen fish sticks & rice (trying to eat all the food out of my flat before I leave in 3 weeks).
After dinner we booked tickets to see Blood Brothers with Amanda & Dom on Monday night along with booking ourselves a mini holiday in Paris (better try to remember some French!!) So we're taking the Eurostar train from Waterloo to Paris Nord & staying at a hotel right across the road. We leave London at 12.09 Monday 18 Sept and return back at 13.56 Thursday 21 Sept. I'm UBER excited about this trip, as I've never been to Paris in my 3 other trips to France, pretty funny ah?!?!?!?
Okay it's getting late & I'm bloody knackered, so I'm gonna get some kip, talk to you all soon . . . Tarra
P.S. Sorry no photos, I keep forgetting my camera :( will try harder this coming week. Tomorrow we're off to Richmond Park or Kew Gardens with Katie & Simon in southern London.

Does podged mean "stuffed?" Love those Ra descriptions your life in London. Also loved Zola's article, especially the part about our taking a moment to reflect on you young people trying to make a difference! Right on Zola!
Went to see the movie "Half Nelson" with Pat. It's about a NYC teacher who's on crack. It got really great reviews; Pat and I left halfway through. We just couldn't take it--and it was boring . . .Any of you see it?
Love, Mommio
yes, stuffed is the translation
Never heard of that movie, but not sure that would make it to London
