I am at an internet cafe... it's pretty cheap; about a pound an hour. We actaually already paid for anotherplace that was 3£ for all day, but Hazel wanted to come here because she can use Hendrick. I'm just hoping people turn up for the game we are supposed to be here to play :o Meanwhile, I will tell you smething that happened today!
We went out to Greenwich, because I wanted to go to the National maritime Museum again, as planned. You take the underground to Charing Cross, and then a train the rest of the way. We were accosted by the biggest asshole in the world! Holy crap! Hazel had her feet on one of the chairs, and he yelled at her, told her that the millions of pounds spend on education were a waste in our case, and that she was a stupid bitch. I was like "Holy crap, that's the rudest Englishman *ever*!" There was a mother and her young son sitting in front of us, and they *left* to go to a different car, even though they had all sorts of crap to carry. I told Hazel that some people didn't need to worry about sitting in shit because they were already full of it ;p Another lady was so offended that she went and got the train stewards... And he was rude to them too! The lady was very nice though, she could tell that we were foreigners because of the accents, and she was profusely apologetic. I think she was morally offended that a fellow countryman could be such a raging asshole.
Anyway, the rest of the trip was uneventful. The museum was cool, but the Mary Rose stuff was either gone, or was in some weird spot that I couldn't find. I can't aim a cannon, and never ask me to steer a viking ship. I did buy two books though The British Museum's Encyclopedia of Underwater and Maritime Archaeology - a real steal at 15£!! Pirates of the Carribbean: Buccaneers, Privateers and Freebooters 1493-1720, less of a steal for 25£, but still cool). And a new Pirate t-shirt. My orignial is getting a hole in it :)
Now people are here, yaaay!
