Hi Family.
Things are going well here. I have adjusted to the jet lag though are still having dreams about being in a Singapore hotel and wake up wanting to order room service!
My flight took me directly over Islamabad! So I got all emotional when I realised that I was about 10 kilometers(above) Tom (brother) - strange to come so far just to pass in the night, so to speak.
I have started looking at job sites. The range of jobs look good, but as to how promising they are I'd not like to guess at.
Shaun (nephew) has contacted me and we are going to the Walk About in Shepards Bush on Saturday morning to watch the Super 14 finals. Sounds like he has the whole week end planned so that is great! I have also contacted my other friends and they will join in some time during the weekend!
The weather here is typical London - gray. I have been told that last week was beautiful and warm but this week is going to be gray and rainy.
Today I am going to "uplift" my bank account from regent st. I went to do this yesterday but forgot to take my passport so will do it today.
Fi (sister) and Fitz want me to do some property management on their flat while I am here, so that should give me something to do.
The place that I am staying at has "free" broadband internet - one of the neighbours has a wireless network but they have not put a password on it - my computer automatically logs onto it and I have free, fast, internet - don't worry its not like im downloading movies, just checking my email and job vacancies!
So now that I have broadband I can "talk" to you guys for free. You will also need broadband - so that is the Elliotts, and a microphone ($12 from dick smith). If you guys organise a webcam too then we will be able to have a video call!
