Now that I'm in London

So, as many of you know I now live in London, and Paya will be joining me in the next 2 months.

 

So, now one incredibly stressful part of my life is over, I wanted to make a list of things to do:

 

(1) Excel at my new job (which I start today)

(2) Move Paya over here

(3) Finish my story (did you know I have a story? the first chapter was put up 2 years ago, I didn't do much with it after that, but its still there)

(4) Use my company provided gym membership regularly

(5) Go to Paris

(6) Learn to drive

(7) Eat less chocolate

(8) FINALLY tour the British museum IN FULL.

(9) Visit all the London places mentioned in Mark Arbour's "Bridgemont" series

(10) take paya to a gay bar

 

Now, I want a list of 50 things to do..... so over to you guys.... Suggestions?

All great ideas. And I am so sorry I cant give you any suggestions. But I can wish you luck and love.

You and Paya were made for each other. Your life is together now. You're no longer you or me you are we and us.

All the luck and love in the world to both of you :):hug:

Welcome to London.

 

I would add:

 

17) Tour the Petrie Museum

 

18) The Natural History Museum

 

19) Victoria and Albert Museum

 

20) Party in the Park at Hyde Park

 

21) Notting Hill Carnival (don't forget stab vest and full riot gear)

 

22) Enjoy the shear misery of travelling in a cramped, overfilled carriage on the Underground in 95 degree heat

 

23) Watch a cricket match at Lord's

 

24) Watch a cricket match at The Oval

 

25) Watch at least one Shakespeare play in the open air theatre at Regent's Park

 

Hope you enjoy at least one thing on this list.

- go hunting

- have a 3 some

- blow paya under the table at a fancy restaurant

- eat something weird but tasty

- take some kid's lunch money but give it to the homeless to cancel out the deed

- molest a palace guard and see if he moves

- drive on the opposite side of the road and say you're an American and aren't used to it.

Westie, you wrote:

That museum has so much that it changes out some exhibits on a regular basis to show other parts of their collection. ERGO, you'll never see all of it!

 

I also haven't seen anyone mention going to see a musical. London's theatre distict is great. We saw Cats there way back in 1986 and it was Fabulous!

Walk in the park of a warm summer day, have a picnic, feed bread to the ducks, listen to a band play, have dinner at a great restaurant, go to a mellow jazz bar, walk home in the moonlight, light hundreds of candles and talk about your day, your life and your love for each other

Have a ride in a black cab to Canary Wharf.

 

Swim in the river (you brave souls) naked (you crazy souls).
