Good day from London..
We arrive late on Wednesday sneak into Sarah's and call it a night.. The next day is spent on the couch watching TV and chilling out.. Much needed.. That night however we went to the chatty.. A pub near Sarah's that has a kiwi guy that plays covers and originals.. It was me, Sarah, Marissa, Rachel and seb.. Rachel came over for some pre drinks and we met seb there..
It was a fun night and when the Chatty closed seb, Marissa and I called it a night and Rachel and Sarah headed to the redback..
The next day was Friday.. The Big GAME! Collingwood vs. Hawthorn.. It was starting at 10:45 in London at the Shebu Walkabout.. We started on the cider about 9am.. I made us breakky and then with Collingwood jumper on we head to the pub.. ciders went down like crazy and for the first 3 quarters I thought we were not a chance... that last quarter was intense and crazy... to say I was stressed and on edge is an understatement... 3 mins to go Buddy kicks a goal to put them back in front.. just over 1 minute to go Hall kicks one to put us in front.. then with about 40 seconds to go Cyril Rioli gets the ball and takes off down the middle.. We could see the win slipping through our hands.. Then out of nowhere Daisy Thomas lays a spectacular tackle dragging rioli to the ground scoring a free kick whilst he was at it... we then run down the clock.. Bang siren goes.. Pies are in the granny.. Game finishes just before 2pm.. We had every intention to leave but we ran into ppl from Latomatina and the next thing I know it was 6pm and they were showing the replay.. So watched that of course less stressed as knew the result.. And then we hit the dance floor... just after midnight we walked out of the walkabout 14 hours after we walked in.. Epic fail.
The Saturday was again spent on the couch with the exception of me getting my hair done.. I went from blonde to brunette..Dramatic change.. But it's good..
On Sunday it was time for Church.. I wasn't going to go prey.. Nope not at all church is a daytime club.. You dress up so we pulled the dirndls out again and started at 9 on the K K K RAZY ciders.. We headed off to church where we met the other jess and got our drink on.. There were people there from latomatina, Oktoberfest and the walkabout on Friday.. We danced and drank strongbows and chatted... at 4 I think it is the church closes and we headed to the walkabout again.. And you know how the night turns out.. Drunk, tearing up the dance floor.. Sarah and I busted out the moves like there was no tomorrow..!!!!
The end of the night is a blur and on Monday I woke up... packed my bag and Sarah and I headed to Heathrow... my next stop was New York.. Europe was over... it was amazing.. Everything I could have imagined and more.. Met some amazing people and saw old friends.. I have memories that will keep me entertained for the rest of my life.. All my new friends and old ones thank you for making my 3 months in Europe greater than ever imagined!
We say a very teary goodbye and through customs I go.. Next stop ill be in another continent and country.. Bring on NYC
