Happy birthday Rob!

Mutterings continued.

The Babylon 5 Series 3 DVD's I ordered from Amazon.ca were waiting for me on the mat when I got home. Yay!! The packaging is different to the Oz series 1 and 2 but I don't care. I've got them and they only cost Au$94.

Wish there was something I could order from New Zealand - the exchange rate between our dollars is very good indeed - A$ = NZ$1.15. Good, eh bro? Unless you're a New Zealander, of course.

Funny.

Today's this time last year:

Final day in London. Visited a real London laundromat and did a load of washing. No Pauline or Dot cotton, it was run by an Iraqui family. Iraqui take away next door selling some very yummy things.

Took the tube to Covent Garden and had a wander through the lovely stores and the Opera House. A string quartet was busking in the markets and drawing huge crowds - they were very, very good.

London Transport has a museum and shop where you can buy t shirts that say "Mind the Gap". They sell great postcards and posters from the 20's on.

Then tubed to Charing Cross and wandered in and out of second hand bookshops and visited the Virgin internet cafe.
