Am heading to Germany today. I'll start packing in...a...sec...
Yesterday I wandered around London admiring places from afar. I keep getting turned away because shows are SOLD OUT dammit, who ever heard of theatre being SOLD OUT, but no, it's London, there are no SPARE SEATS, not like in Sydney where you show up and ALWAYS get a seat...even the bloody Globe, ESPECIALLY the bloody Globe had no groundling seats...so I went to St Paul's cathedral and admired it from afar instead. A lot of buildings in London are quite lovely to admire from the outside considering it costs lunch and dinner to go in, so my method has been to get to a subway stop and use my zoom from there. I also admired Westminster Abbey and sat in on a House of Commons debate on fuel taxes. The Tate was quite fun although crowded and noisy. All in all a remarkably cheap day, with only sore feet and a few pounds for food to account for the day's work!
I also spent the evening watching my flatmate's clown performances, which were very fun. Very talented lot, very charming! The first years of the 3 year course (As) are all hyper and mad and talented (with a couple of famous faces) while the first years of the 2 year course (E1s) are much more precise in their work. Then we all went to the pub again, which I have to say is quite a nice, kind of the upmarketness of the Royal but the cosiness of the Rege, and much nicer than both ;)
Ah British actors...if only I could eat them like chocolate chip cookies!
