Hello all!

Yesterday was a fun day. I mooched around in the morning, slept in etc. I met Sarah and Orlaith at 1pm at Fenchurch Street Station. We wandered around a bit, grabbed some lunch and went to sit in the park behind the Tower of London. We sat there for a good couple of hours, just watching life go by, chatting away. I took a load of photos of Orlaith when she was lying on her blanket. She is becoming quite vocal, telling us stories. I can't understand her, but I am sure they are very interesting!! We went into a pub, mainly to use the loo, and stayed for a drink there. Then it was off wandering again. I met Scott at his work so we could go home together. Turns out he had a cab ride home, which was much nicer than being in a hot sweaty train!

Today, tomorrow and Monday I am at work. Nothing exciting is happening. But on Tuesday, I am very excited as I am going to see the museum's store area. It is off site, and houses all the large objects, such as boats, machinery pieces, vehicles that kind of thing. I have been pestering the conservation people for months and they are finally going there on one of my days off. I have to wear daggy clothes and boots and get to mooch around generally. I can't help too much as I do not own safety boots, but I can help as much as I can. I am really looking forward to it. The conservation people, Alison and Paul, are lovely, and completely mad. So I get on well with them! Hopefully I can take piccies and show you all.
