Her Majesty , T-Rex and The Mummy


Well i thought i'd do a bit of an update on a few things that we've been up to around London over the past month or two.
We have been to check out some of the many London museums. We visited the British museum a month or so back and really enjoyed all the Greek and Roman statues and also the Egyptian mummies and the like, its a huge place and we didn't have enough time to see it all.

During August and September the queen takes her summer holidays in Scotland and because she not home at the palace they open up some of the rooms for tourists to have a look around (for a small fee of course). We got the chance to see inside 19 of the state rooms which were quite nice and had an audio guide to give us a bit more of an insight into what the old girl gets up to!

A few weekends back we went to the Natural history museum and they had some great dinosaur displays with a real live T-Rex, well almost it's motorised and even makes the roaring noise , it must scare the heck out of small children!

In other news we have moved out of Shepherds Bush and into Hammersmith with our Friends Morgan and Esther. We have taken over Stephen and Larissa's room as they have gone back to Brissy. We have a cute little room in the upstairs attic which is very cosy and we like it a lot.
Everything else is going well, its starting to get cool over here , down to 5 -7 deg min and sometimes only 10-12 during the day. But we are assured that it is only the beginning and it will get a lot colder!
