Observations, Day 2.
- The tapas place where I used to have lunch fairly frequently is still there. And still great.
- The more you futz around on the tube, the more you remember.
- If you get an Oyster pass, which is GBP23.30, you can ride the tube (and buses) in zones 1 and 2 as much as you like for a whole week. So that'd be the way to go then.
- The old local, The Glassblower, redid the interior. Still a decent local.
- The YRB office is literally around the corner from the Modem Media office on Eversholt Street, and the MSN office is literally around the corner from the old Modem Media office on Glasshouse Street. Needless to say, I didn't have a whole lot of trouble finding either.
- The dim sum place, Chuen Cheng Ku on Wardour Street is still there. And still serves kick-ass dim sum.
- One should not eat breakfast at the hotel. GBP20 for some croissants, muffins, toast, tea, and a glass of juice.
- The UK has changed their currency...I have about 30 Pounds that no one will take because "they're too old." I need to go to a bank and see if they'll accept them.
- I started the last sentence as "The UK have changed..." I'm already reverting.
- I saw Norm and Melanie today. They were happy to see me. I was happy to see them. They're busy busy people.
- It was fun to say to the receptionist at Modem Media, when asked if I was part of the company, I said "Sort of." And she said "from the US?" And I said "Nope. I'm from here."
- I think I want to move back to the UK. How do I make that happen?
