Catch-up...another one

Sorry guys, time keep flying by and I never seem to have time to up-date our blog.

FLAT:
The flat is going well, settling in nicely. It’s quite cool to be around NZrs to hear the ‘accent’ and talk about stuff that they can relate to and share places they’ve been etc. We have a diverse bunch aged from 22 to early 30’s, including a lawyer, IT something, pharmacist, architect, hospitality, science….etc and everyone gets along. It only take me 30-40 mins to get to work which is awesome…takes Niki usually at least an hour (haha).

WORK:
Still temping at the same place, it’s really busy here so I’ve been doing an extra few hours a week per week which is good for the money situation! Niki seems to be enjoying his job too, hooning around on the forklift in the warehouse and weaving through London traffic in the work van on a daily basis. His boss’ seem really nice, he often finishes at 4.30pm and they provide lunch etc as part of the job.

CLUBBING:
On Saturday 14 July we went out ‘clubbing’ with Sheree & Marty and Lee-Ann. We were going to go to Ministry of Sound but apparently they had crap music on that night so we went to Turnmills instead. We went to Sheree’s uncle’s house (where they are staying) in Covent Garden (which is right in the middle of the city) for a few drinks. Leonard who I knew from JAWs was also there with his fiancée so it was cool to catch up with them. We arrived at the club just on 11pm and had a 'voucher' so got in for £8 rather than £15...well the girls did! haha The club had 5 different rooms, each with a different DJ and décor. It was a really fun night. I thought it would be scarey going to a ‘super club’ but as there was lots of room it didn’t feel any busier than a club back home. Same amount of gross boys thinking that they’re cool pinching your butt or trying to dance with u as back home. Eww. But we had a great time & danced the night away. Niki had a ball mocking people, there were a few crazy-cats around that's for sure. Niki, Lee-Ann and I decided to leave at 3am… a combination of missing buses and silly decisions later… we arrived back to Lee-Ann’s place at 5.20am! The next day we found out that Sheree & Marty didn’t get home until 7.45am! (and they only lived 15mins from the club…so it was all partying) Crazy kids!
