back from lampeter.. finally, no more sheep, no more shit.. but to be honest, the sheep were dang cute though.. the annoying part was the shit.. was littered everywhere in the field we worked.. they say in NS, you grow used to the mud.. in lampeter, we grew use to both mud and shit.. lol.. shan't talk more about lampeter.. i'll need to find another time to consolidate my thoughts about it..

so i arrived one day early in London coz i bought a train tix from Carmarthen.. did a brief stopover in Cardiff and boy did I feel a sense of nostalgia.. it didnt seem too long ago that i was there (btw, that was back in November).. finally reached my new place in Farringdon around midnight, with less than 72 hours left before my flight.. time to get things started..

spent the next morning packing up my room and dropping by argos to get a plastic storage rack.. went for a haircut in the afternoon before cycling to Stamford Bridge (i made it one of my must-dos before i return), Harrods, and then Selfridges (first time i set foot inside).. I spent an entire hour at the section selling travel books, browsing through those written about London.. lol.. and UK in general.. i really should explore this country more.. there're just so many gems within.. had dinner at Boldein's (finally, after being turned down so many times before).. the beef brisket and pulled pork i had was awesome.. went to Lilywhites to try and find an Arsenal jersey for Kelvyn, but it's out of stock.. decided to leave my bike at the bike shed and take a walk down regent's street instead to do some "sightseeing", but i couldnt help but be tempted by all the signs which screamed "SALE".. lo and behold, i got myself a blazer, on a 50% discount from H&M.. ahaha..

been a fulfilling day.. now for some market frenzy tmr.. spitalfields, then portobello, and hopefully an eggs benny lunch at this restaurant called "Daylesford", which has received rave reviews about its eggs benny.. :D
