The weather was crap today, but being me who wants to just get out and see most of London before I get torn with work, I dragged D out in the awful rain (I told myself that I will be doing this many times, so might as well start now). Its better than staying at home surfing the internet anyway..

So we checked out another 2 places where my interviews will be held. Funny how these interviews are placed so near the tourist spots. Talk about luxury. We took the number 17 bus again and it crossed the London Bridge.

We walked to Hay's galleria, it was quite nice, D told me in ancient times, this place was built with a large roofing area to allow the imports and exports sales to happen..markets were set up to sell and buy stuff...


And this is where I realised I was fooled when I was young when I saw the Tower Bridge :(

'London bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down,
London bridge is falling down, my fair lady...'

HL: Don't sing this to Keira!! It's a lie, it's a lie......SOB


After that, we went to meet up with a friend out at a station called Piccadily Square. We had yummy burger and fries at some takeaway shop (£1.50 kids meal for meeeee) Oh and I took the Subway for the first time!


There were no rubbish bins, nor toilets due to the bombing. It was similar to taking the LRT, only that it is bigger and heaps of escalators.. oh, and people are in a rush too. There is one rule that each of us had to remember when taking the escalator, to give way to the people on your left....if not, there'll be the common remark shot at you 'bah~~ tourists'

Piccadily Square is like Queen Street...lotsa shops, people and pickpockets


Our friend took us to see China town, since she wanted to bring us to walk...but the weather was crap.


We had drinks at a bar, and dinner at a chinese shop J&J brought us to (it had a perak waitress who orders extra dishes out of courtesy)

We learnt that Jobs were created in London for the sake of making them. To write a bank cheque required 4 different people to do it!! One to pass you the form, one to sign, and one to return it back you. We also learn of the places to avoid in staying, tube lines to avoid too.

I even noticed that the chinese restaurant had two people, one to pick up the dishes, and the other to hold them. OMG....anyway, this was why employer love NZ, Aussie and Asian people. We can multitask! Our number one strength.
