'Finding myself'

In and around World

I shall travel to my fathers house tomorrow. I may pop round Gregs on the way but also maybe not. It depends on my boredom and what food Greg has to offer. At Dads I'll sleep, albiet I imagine quite lightly until 6am when I shall travel to London. Wow. Thats the capital of England! I wonder what that will be like? London England, I hear they drink warm beers over there?! Mental. After that culture shock I shall go to Southeast Aisa with Greg to relax. 1 night in Singapore where I imagine Greg and I will lose all our money and anal virginity then a flight up to Bangkok to meet Del boy. (luke). Wow, you can read all about our adventures here... (well not literally this page but one somewhere else on this site. Cheers
