Back in the big smoke
Dec. 11th, 2005 05:21 pmI’m back from some fantastic adventures around central Europe. Lots of gorgeous fairy-tale castles and pretty christmas markets and mulled wine. ( no snow and lots of biker santas and other strangeness )
Traveled straight from Budapest to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
doseybat‘s birthday party, which had lots of lovely people and nice conversation - I’m really sad I couldn’t stay longer, and there were lots of people I wanted to talk to but never found the time (791point43, you free for lunch on Friday? ...actually, if anyone else fancies lunch in Wimbledon any day midweek, give me a shout - I’m feeling all sociable right now)
Horrible thing happened! Broke my glasses while passing through Victoria station - the screws holding the lens in fell out and was never going to be found again. *sob* Does anyone know how I go about fixing this? Is there somewhere I can get lens screws or something? In the meantime I’ll be forced to wear prescription shades, which will give me lots of strange looks at work tomorrow!
Me and Nini were discussing earlier how the sky had been eaten up a few hours ago, seeing a big black cloud roll in over London. I just looked at the news and found big fire at fuel depot. Gosh. That was dramatic - I thought that cloud didn’t look natural. I wonder if it’s still there - it’s gone dark now.
I just ate a week’s worth of advent chocolates in one go. Twice, as I have 2 calendars. Yummy. I feel happy and content.
Update:snow_leopard has put up lovely photos (and also some photos of me in silly poses...!!!) of Bratislava,Vienna and Budapest.
Also - please point me to anything I shouldn't have missed reading in the past week. Assume I won't read last week's LJ unless prodded.
