Day 14 - 14-12-06

Our first full day in London. Got up in the morning and was able to watch the final session of the third test on Sky Sports 1.

Going up to look at the big name stores this morning - Harrods, Harvey Nicholls, etc. Should be interesting.

Wandered around Harrods for a bit. Still a stupidly overpriced store which we have nothing like in Australia. Had a Krispy Kreme in Harrods - Christmas Mince Pie Doughnut - which was quite nice.

Ended up that night at the Christmas staff party for the Australian Embassy. Free drinks all nice was very nice. Apart from the Fosters (which no-one seemed to drink), I managed to have quite a few Boags and Crownies (which didn't seem to travel well).

It was rather surreal playing pool under the Strand while Eagle Rock was blaring out over the stereo. But it was quite fun.
