Prepare yourselves...


Flip is but 24 hours from seeing Orlando va va voom Bloom in the flesh! The trio of Fliss, Flip and Pip are going to see Orlando in 'In Celebration', on West End. Should be good... review to come (but will probably only consist of 'Oh, he was amazing...')


In other exciting news direct out of Flip's world: I have had holidays approved and I'm going to be hitting the big apple in November. I can't wait! It seems crazy to go all the way to the US when Europe is so close, but New York has been on my 'to go' list for quite some time, and it's so much cheaper to do it from London, than Brissie. So Europe can wait a bit longer.


Not much else happening over here except crap weather. This is the WORST Summer on record according to the locals. To be honest, my first week here was amazing... but it's pretty much been downhill since then (weather wise only). I thought Armageddon was on it's way when I looked outside on Friday. A couple of hours later, the skies opened up with the hardest rain I've ever seen (I suspect it would have caused bruising). After finishing work, I arrived at the tube station to find out that Chiswick Park had been closed due to flooding. Not a big problem ... we just hopped off early and walked, but in a country that sees as much rain as England, it's hard to believe the chaos some rain causes. Since then, the rain has just continued and the Thames has breached its banks in a number of places. Having a beer down by the river on Sunday, you certainly didn't need to be a... err, river expert, to know it was full.
