Seeya lay’eh, mate
Unexpected, I’m leaving for vacation. Most people with weblogs will throw in a few links and fancy pictures just after they’ve planned their holiday, weeks before. My destination, however, is not that awe inspiring. It’s London. It’s not that special, if you squint your eyes, and look the to west, you might actually see me waving back at ya.
So here’s a list of what I’m certain I’m going to do:
– Sleep in till late afternoon. I hope the hotel serves breakfast at 14:00.
– Watch a lot of BBC1 and BBC2. If the hotel has a receiver for BBC Digital (including BBC3 through 5), I def’ly won’t complain. During traveling, I’ll tune in my iRiver radio to BBC World.
– Have tea at 4 o’clock.
– Listen to the Big Ben.
– Buy a can of Pringles at Harrod’s.
The rest of the time, I’ll try to blend in as poifectly as possible. I already have the magically bad set of teeth the Brits are cursed to have, with the color being a close match.
Then there’s the British accent, which I’ve mastered a long time ago. “Woh-evaah, mate, woh-evaah. Kewd yew yost pawz the marwmelade ?”
Anyways, I’ll be back before you know it. 4 Days, of which only two count (Friday and Monday), coz I’m still a workaholic at heart, you know. I even thought about bringing along my set of emergency boot floppies and cd’s. Ah well, you know what, I’m gonna be bold and leave them at home. Toym to have somm fonn, sholwe ?
