The family has arrived...

Well, mum and sis have arrived. Within the first 10 minutes there were tensions, with mum wanting to catch the impractical and overpriced Heathrow Express when they were staying nowhere near Paddington and me insisting on the tube. I won that battle... but the battles continue. It's good to see them and all that, but tiring in ways, plus I am having to go over and over very familiar ground.

Today we went to Madame Tussauds which was really really overpriced but fun. I even pulled there...



haha yes that is a wax figure of Prince William. Makes me look like a total shortass. But I was taller than Tom Cruise if that counts for anything.

We then went on one of those crazy bus trips that tourists do to go "oh yeah, I saw that briefly out the side of a tour bus" every time someone mentions any London landmark. As you can probably tell, I'm not a huge fan. And I think they are well overpriced as well, when you can see it all from London public transport for 80p a bus ticket with Oyster.

But anyway, we did it, and it made my mother happy, and my sister thought it was good too, and I survived so yeah.





I was freezing my tits off though... didn't bring a winter coat and the weather was pretty cold today... the temperature was fine really but there was drizzle and strong wind and my little sis would only sit on the open deck of the bus in the cold. Oh well, I'm alive.
