The Countdown begins.....

Our first party of travellers left for the Continent on Sunday! So Jo and I are now on our lonesome in Stratford. (That's East London, luvies). We have said goodbye to scummy Willesden flat and temporary hello to scummier Stratford flat, complete with new and strange kiwi flatmates. They seem to have health food and weird objects lying around the house. Jo says they're something to do with "exercising" and "keeping fit" but I have no idea what she's on about......

I dont have much longer to go at Reuters now (6 days and counting). I cannot wait....

The girlies sound like they are having a wonderful time so far. Below is the latest dispatch -
