Tuesday Catch-up?

Wow, I’ve never been this late with my mash-up, but what the hell!

I was away for the weekend, to London. I had taken my laptop with me because I wanted to write my blogs and some fiction in any way. Right at the first evening I decided it was not going to work. First, because there was no free wifi at the hotel (£5 per hour’s a tad much if you ask me), second, I was too tired. We walked for hours on end all day, and at night, I was just glad I could lay down and close my eyes.

So, the blog and writing went on short hiatus. I had an amazing time, though As soon as we have pictures uploaded, I’ll write up another travel post.

Last thing I’d like to say is that everyone should at least have visited London once in their life time. What an amazing city.
