I heard someone going on about getting free tickets to go to this next week. I felt a stab of jealousy because I couldn't go again too.

Personally my problem with clothes is that I am short and as such jeans are always waaay too long. And also, it'd be amazing when/if clothes designers ever realise that we're not all the same shapes just because we are a certain length!
Finding trousers that fit is also a major issue for me (and you are quite a bit taller than I am!).

I usually for the petite range when that is available.

It's actually different for me here, I have to say. Dutch people are stupidly tall, so I am far too short for clothes when I try to find stuff home. Here I have actually already found 5 pair of trousers that fit me - so that is an improvement!

Has anyone else heard about the fire at Deptford bridge, bloody nightmare. What should have been a half hour journey to uni, turned out to be 2 hours!! And apparently they'd closed the Greenwich station as well. At least the bus driver was nice, he kept updating us and opening the doors to let people in/out at random places.

I really like German food – all kinds of sausages such as bratwurst, currywurst etc. I’ve become a fan of German food since I visited Germany last summer. It is really delicious. I think that German food is the best one in the whole of Europe. Luckily, I found a restaurant where they serve traditional German food: http://www.the-bratwurst.com/ .

I think it's affecting Charlton-Greenwich-Lewisham direction more, but the way back is slightly easier. If you do go, try to leave in plenty of time in case of traffic. But yh hopefully it'll be over by tonight.
