PROPPA UK FLURRY

So I experienced the first snow in my life....the weather have been peculiar of late. It snowed early Sunday morning and by late afternoon the snow was all gone....? There were a couple of people in the park building snowmen and trotting about.Here's some images of the snow on Sunday...

Welcome to the 1st WORLD

It's been 11 days since my arrival and things are starting to pick up! UK GPS took 3 days to sync and is all proppa by now. Figuring out the busses and underground is quite a task and I recommend getting lost a couple of times.

I arrived at Gatwick and had to find my way to Wimbledon...well confused for day one but all got better when I got to my mates spot.

I've been doing the rounds and job hunting is in full affect. Plenty employment opportunities compared to SA - but they sure make it tough this side. There is currently a big debate regarding the economic impact that foreigners have on the UK economy. Hopefully this gets sorted quick because it seems that it’s getting all negative for the foreign workforce :(

Other than hunting for the salt mine I've been sightseeing and hooking up with the mates all over. I’ll be updating picasa as I go along !

Some of the places that I've visited so far:

Wimbledon , London Eye , London Bridge , Tower bridge , South bank , the Clock tower , Trafalgar SQ , Putney , Elephant and castle,Islington, Covent garden , Clapham , Fulham ,The Strand , Embankment....


Will keep you posted...remember to keep it loose !
