Ian : So, next we got to London , but just for 24 hrs - opened a bank account, got connected to a UK mobile phone network and caught up with the lovely Mark, who knew of my ledgendary love of Yorkie bar chocolate ...

Michael: His gift to Ian was about a kilogram of Yorkie type chocolates!




... and had dinner with Johan and Aliki, Michaels collegues from Melbourne, now working in London.



Michael: It was great meeting up with Aliki and Johan at a small Italian restaurant while in London. Unfortunately Kumi couldn't make it as she was not feeling too well, but I'm sure there'll be other times since we're now on the same continent! It is a good thing that the company was so great since the Italian restaurant was quite disappointing overall. Definitely not up to Melbourne standard.

Ian: ... and did some shopping and lunching on Oxford Street.

gotta luv a man in a suit !

... and out of one too !


Michael: Absolutely no comment.
