On Tuesday night after work I met up with Kate who I hadnt seen in ages. We went to some pub in Croydon for a drink and catch up, which landed up been a whole lot of drinks :) Thursday night I met up with Gav in Old Street, east London at a club called Cargo. They were having scratching DJs play that night - DJ Kraze and A-Trak. Got there about 22h00 and stayed until they closed, which was around 1 or 2 that morning. Needless to say, work was very slow on Friday, but Thursday was good fun. First time I've seen scratching DJs play live - and was well impressed.

Friday night was another Temple Walkabout night. Went with Tom, Kate and her housemate Gavin. Had a good evening there - no photos unfortunately, then caught the night bus home - and after catching a quick nap, I realised its a lot further walk from Morden than I thought it was. Got home around 04h30 I guess.

Saturday was a quiet day at home, doing very little. Then that evening went to Wimbledon Walkabout to watch the Ireland vs England rugby game with Guy, Tom and Kate which was great, considering Ireland thrashed England - much to the disappointment of Tom! :) After that, we all went up to Covent Gardens to meet up with Will who was leaving England to go travelling then back to New Zealand. Went to a place called Bunker Bar which was an old war military binker converted into a pub / bar. Really cool. Stayed there a while before heading back down to Clapham Junction to a pub called Clapham Grand. Really nice club - quite expensive though. Reminded me of Tiger Tiger back in Rivonia. The reason for Clapham was Si's farewell party, the second farewell that day. Again, a small nap on the bus took me to Kingston - so landed up staying over at Haig's sisters place that night. Good times...

Yesterday, went with Haig and Guy to Fulham to a pub called The Mitre - it was Alison's farewell (who Haig knows). Yes, another farewell. That's 3 in 2 days. One from SA, one from Aus and one from NZ. Kind of crazy. After a while at The Mitre, we went down to the Pitch and Piano in Putney - which was great atmosphere, even though it was a Sunday. From there, I headed home - before yet another (boring) week at work :)
