Today was admin day, the day I allocated to get organized and get everything out of the way before I head off to Russia. Dare to dream K. I started off by going to Victoria, as I needed a HSBC bank to deposit ninety quid into for my Mongolian Visa and this is where the nearest one to the embassy supposedly was. I looked for it for about an hour, I eventually found it and deposited the money. I then got back on the tube to Kensington High Street and went in ...

Light the way back home...... Well, this is my last day in Huntingdon, tomorrow I take off for Germany. Yesterday, Alex and I went and did a little shopping, mainly getting travel supplies for me.

St. Neots is quite a big town, by Huntingdon standards, with a big church and a nice central market square. I we...

I'm still in Huntingdon hanging out with my family. On the weekend I went out with my cousin Beverley, her husband Jon and their daughter, my very cute second cousin Elizabeth. We went to the raptor sanctuary and saw demonstrations of how the birds fly. One really big owl flew really low over me and smacked me in the head with its wing. I also saw a very wet, very sad looking Kookaburra sitting on a perch, drenched from the rain. Poor buggar. Bev, Elizabeth and ...
