...this is the start of what was.

My life hasn't totally been a The Streets album here in London but it hasn't been totally dissimilar. Certainly the slang I''ve picked up from Original Pirate Material has helped me understand the locals. Also I haven't lost £1000 but saving that much has also been out of the question dashing my hopes for a wild summer in Spain. I wouldn't say my lady dramas were as bad as that outlined in ''A Grand Don''t Come for Free'' but there has been lady dramas!

So, my days here in London are numbered. I am leaving to join Intrepid Travel as a Group Tour Leader. I leave here on the 27th for Prague for a week of training and then to Russia to start my tours in Russia and China.

There's people and things I''ll miss here in London, none more than Merton RFC. They've been more or less my family here. If it wasn''t for the game every Saturday I would be back in Sydney by now. The game and more importantly the social aspect after the game has been the highlight of mother England.
