Return to the flat
Currently Listening To: It Must Be Love from the album "The Heavy Heavy Hits" by Madness
Yep I'm back in London and back in the Victoria flat.
I tried to get my broadband to work again but realized that it was inactive which had resulted in me not having to pay for it over the summer! Score!
I thought it was impossible for this to happen but what happened was this:
I tried to shift it to Rowhedge as I might have written, but was foiled by the fact that our name wasn't on the BT bill at Thanet Walk (hurrah for bureaucracy). However what came out of that was that whilst my connection here was suspended, when the whole deal fell through it wasn't reactivated and instead fell into a suspension state as if I hadn't paid my bill.
Ironically this was exactly what I wanted as I didn't feel like paying for a service I wasn't using and I had a year long contract which I couldn't get out of. Tomorrow I can call up and get it re-activated, I'd have done it today but for my late arrival in London.
Anyhow I am back in the flat in Victoria once more and enjoying being alone for a bit. Uncle Joel was here when I arrived as he's about to start lecturing in Brunel University but he left and I have since had the run of the flat once again.
I really love London. Sadly I didn't do much for the last six months of my university term thanks to my Grandmother breathing down my neck for the whole of it. This time however she can't visit because she's feeding horses (hahah!! Reap! Reap! Reap! Just what you sow! - 'Perfect Day' quote).
Tomorrow I'm going to go for a brilliant stroll. I'll go through St. James' Park where I went when I was a kid and I'll walk to Leicester Square and Chinatown to pick up some vital supplies (Vitasoy™). Then I have to drop off some letter for someone at HSBC in Chancery Lane before heading off to some museum or art gallery.. I'd love to go to see the Tate Modern so I'll see if I can't fit it in.
Hmm.. Sounds like I've planned out a pretty full day tomorrow.
Oh and later on I have to call up Grayham Carter, my godmother's brother who has some Student Accommodation I need to scout out :D That's in the evening though
Later
John
