Photo uploading frenzy!
Photo gallery
I've been busy uploading photos to our photo gallery so click on the 'Photo Gallery' link on the right to see snaps from our travels around Britain and the Lum Family Trip.
Stop the war
This week we went to a war protest in Trafalgar Square where many famous and notable people read out around 2,000 names of people who died in the Iraq war. This coincided with readings around the world and, of course, the US election. What a disappointment that turned out to be. And it's come out that if all the votes were checked again Kerry would have won. All the Exit polls deemed him the most popular as well! Crazy. What kind of mixed up electoral system do those Americans have? They are world leaders in many things, but in fair, well organised elections they are not!
Bonfire night
It was Bonfire night on Friday so we headed to Dollis Hill to see the Brent Council display. We didn't quite get to the park where the display was going to be held however we still had a very good vantage point when the display started so decided to stay and watch from there. There were some new types of fireworks that impressed us. Always a spectacular sight. The weather is still reasonably mild for this time of year. Joe and I are wishing it gets colder as that would bode well for our skiing trip!
Interview nerves
I've got a job interview on Monday so cross fingers for me at 10.30am GMT (o: If it's meant to be and all that I guess. Must do some research this weekend so I'm ready with all the correct answers.
