Hello there.
I forgot to mention, that I set up a mobile phone here, so I can now be reached on that too. Please email me if you would like the number. I can send international text messages too!!
I am still in London at my cousin's house. She has been incredibly generous taking in a very distant relative (she is my mum's third cousin) whom she has never met, as well as Scott.
Scott and I went to see an exhibition today called "Hungary's Heritage". Twas quite good really, but my only disappointment is that most of the objects in the display were merely owned by the particular Hungarian family, not actually made in the country. But the collection (not the Hungarian bit though) included quite a few micromosaics. These are amazing. The pieces of marble etc used in them are so small (we were actually given magnifying glasses at the beginning), I would say the maximum length is 4mm. Quite stunning really, and they were mostly of scenes like the Roman Forum, as people in the 18th century used to buy them as the modern equivalent of postcards. It was lovely to be able to recognise the buildings in the mosaics, and be able to say "I've seen that!!"
Apart from that, life rolls on really. We are keeping our fingers crossed about jobs etc tomorrow. We will keep looking for jobs, chase up employment agencies, talk to people etc etc.
Bye for now!!
