Greenwich & Soho.

I rocked up to London again a few days later. It was all I could think about. My tube fear hadn't diminished but I managed to stand on the right once or twice. Always a bonus.
Jode met me from the station and we got a tube to somewhere central. Don't ask me where.

The tube was alright a part from a drunk man started talking to us, I had no idea what he said but I thought he was telling me off. The tube stopped and Jodie said "run." And bounded off. Just what you want for your second London experience.  She did later inform me it was just because she thought he was crazy and not because he was going to kill us. I had about 3 cigarettes.


Jode took me to Whole foods.. id never been before and was like a little kid. They had bagels the size of my face and any type of chocolate you could think of. Ooohh AND they have this nut thing where you can make your own nut butter. Genius.

We stopped off for a spot of lunch at "Balans" where Jodie ordered a taco... and this is what came out.



It was really nice. They had fancy tea pots and let me smoke even though the windows were open to the inside. Made me feel weird. And slightly guilty as the smoke was blowing onto a lady eating her healthy salad.
We bused back, I drank some wine and was out like a light after an hour of Green day. #greatlifechoice


After waking up at about 1pm - whoops, I sleepily made my way downstairs to where Jodie had already completely like 48638 things with her day AND gone to the gym. Inspiration.
We popped the kettle on and a chat about what to do, and we decided on SOHO!

Soho was so bizzare. So many streets all over the place, connected. Jodie knew exactly where she was going, darting in and out if everywhere whilst I trailed behind bewildered.
After a while of looking around and getting a feel for SOHO, we stopped off at this cool restaurant called  "Beatroot".
Jodie was wearing no pants on this day, i think a guy stared so hard at her butt he probably realised too, but he started to chat her up and it was pretty hilarious being me. I watched from the sideline as he spoke awkwardly about salad and looked at her bum when she wasnt looking. It was brilliant.
I didnt get any salad cos i was broke, but it did look banging and Jode said it was lush, so there is a recommendation!
Yet again, i sat and smoked outside another health shop.


I saw some G.A.Y clubs and a lot of sex shops.
We went in one called harmony.
Coming from somewhere where we only have Anne Summers, where the back end is taboo (no pun intended) this was mental. It may aswell of been a mini warehouse. It was cool.
There were also alot of retro sex shops with the XXX sign in the window and magazines as the primary outlet of porn. I need to get one. You know, as a souvenir.

Oh yeah! And i saw Greenwich pirate ship!
