i can almost taste the plane food

in just a few days, i'll be sitting on a plane heading to new york, new york - the place is so nice they named it twice! anyway...it will mark the end of my current stint in london, allbeit for only 3 months. but it will also mark the start of a whole new thing - my north american adventure.

with only a few days left, i have a crap load to organise - and that's tomorrow, my one 'day' off (though i start work at 7pm). so tomorrow will be insurance organising, buying bits and pieces one needs when travelling (more socks and boxers etc) plus getting trained up for my travelling job.

it's been offered to me to sign hostels up to hostelbookers.com, which is owned by gernerator directors louise and kingsley (another one, not mr faulkner). for every hostel i sign up i get a commission so when i get back to london at the end of february, with any luck i'll have a nice little nest egg waiting for me - so that skiing trip to bulgaria may not be so far off after all...

i'm not going to be all reflective on the last 14 months living in london (i think i bored you with that last week didn't i?) but i will say this - if you've never come and lived here, or at least visited london for a fair amount of time, get your ass here today! london is one of the greatest cities in the world - she's a cruel mistress, and one that won't be tamed, but damn can she have some fun!
