One-nil is a game that Paul Morris taught me last year. Paul Morris is Meg's bf, and Meg is a sorority sister that I'm staying with while I'm in London. One-nil is played by saying something everyone knows not to be true, and then when a person responds with a comment that seems to say: you're so dumb, how could you possibly even think that to be true, you respond with "one-nil" and then they're the dumb one after all. It's quite silly, but it keeps you on your toes.
So, I apparently can't read military time, and my flight was NOT scheduled to leave at 11:35 like I originally thought, but 21:35....BIG difference!!! Luckily our plane was late, so I was still able to check in and make it. It was a close one though!! Whew!
Since I've gotten to London, there's been a lot of catching up with Meg and Nicole. Nicole is another one of my sorority sister's that is working and living in London. They were my London reps when I did my Flat Stanley Project this past year, but didn't realize Flat Stanley was supposed to be colored....duh! Ed TheClam has now been making his way around town, so be on the lookout for him. :)
We went on a day trip to Windsor Castle yesterday. My favorite part was the doll house!! (Poppop, I'm ready to start making one, this fall!) Today's agenda includes Shrek the Musical and a Sunday Roast. the rest of this week will include Kings of Leon concert in Hyde Park, and Wimbledon at the very least, more I'm sure! The weather has been quite rainy and chilly. Luckily Meg's got warm clothes and umbrellas for me! Hoping it gets nicer soon.
Happy Father's Day!!!

So instead of "duh", One-nil would be appropriate?! Sounds like you're getting a lot in and having a good time! Looking forward to seeing pictures and reading your updates!

Mom & Dad (who, of course, loved your Fathers Day card!)
Hi Court!
ReplyDeleteYour mom gave me this link, so we can share int'l notes. We leave soon for Malaysia: Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Penang. in fact, we stop for fuel in Istanbul, on the same day you arrive!
Glad you made your flight, thankfully Simone is good with military time! Missed you at the Cheng's today-ask your mom about the "sleeping men" photos.

Christine-
ReplyDeleteHaven't you figured out how to post those pictures yet?!
Coo missed a good time at the Cheng's for Fathers Day/Sweet 16 party. Clem, as usually, put together a beautiful lunch and our two new 16 year olds are absolutely beautiful! We'll have to get a picture of them with their "adopted" blond cousin when she returns from her trip!
Looking forward to following your updates, and seeing your vacation pictures also! Keep your eyes opened for Coo when you stop for fuel! What a small world!
Be safe and enjoy your trip, Lims!

Mal and I are headed to the beach right now! Just found out I'm pregnant! Guess I will be observing the drinking with Laura lea tomorrow night at starboard! Can't wait to read more posts! P.s. One-nil to the pregnant comment! Bring it on starboard!
ReplyDeleteGood one, Joanna! You had me for a few!!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of babies, Court, Miss Jo just called to say that Kylie and Craig had a little girl this morning. Her name is Hadley Grace and she is only a little more then 6 pounds. Not even close to the 10 pounds 11 oz that you were, but all is well with them both!
Looking forward to the next update!
Love you,
Mom
You got me good Jo! Real good! Have a Bullshark (or 2) for me this weekend and tell Mal I want to see pics of Fin as soon as she gets her!
