LONDON 2009!!!

Well London was amazing! Flew down on Friday morning and did some serious shopping when we got down there. Were gonna go to the Hard Rock Cafe for dinner but there was a 2 hour queue so we though "sack that" and went over to the Rock Shop. We bought some stuff and me and Jane became Hard Rock members. We got to go down to the Vault which is a wee rock museum and Jimmy (the vault man, who is also from Glasgow) was a good wee laugh. We went to Planet Hollywood for dinner, not before getting caught in the rain, which was quite good and got some t-shirts. Then we went back to the hotel coz it was peeing down.
Saturday rocked! We went to the Hard Rock for lunch and got to skip the ridiculous queue outside because of Jane's fabby membership. Had a fabby lunch and then went shopping, again. Had a hunt for Abercrombie and only realised we'd found it when we saw the queue round the corner. London is ridiculously busy at Christmas. No wonder people hate shopping when it's like that! Anyhoo, went into Abercrombie after waiting for 15 minutes and this place smells amazing. I burned my finger on their stupid display lights :( booo. So after all that I had to get something. Pretty hoodie was called for. Went to the theatre and were ripped off by the git of a taxi driver who charged us £15 to take us round the corner. Rat. Legally Blonde was amazing! Absolutely hilarious and Sheridan Smith is an amazing Elle. After the show we jumped into Tesco coz there wasn't a McDonald's nearby and we were hungry. Got a 12 pack of Krispy Kremes amongst various other extremely healthy snacks and met a nice wee Scottish man in the queue (who Jane is still convinced is English despite his ridiculously Scottish accent) and he gave us a tenner! Just for being Scottish. It gets you places I swear. National Scottish Discounts! We then went back to the hotel and had a mini rave :L
Sunday was home time booo! We had a good wee day. Went to Harrods (again) where we got some rockin' ice-cream. Upon leaving we encountered some protesters. They were screaming "Harrods sells real fur!" to which I hit back with "they also sell the best ice-cream in the world!" because it was true. Then we went and shopped some more!!! Then headed back to Victoria to get the train to Gatwick. Train ride ='d hilarious!!! I have never laughed so much and I have a sneaking feeling that we were annoying the surrounding people but who cares. It was fun.
So that was our London trips. A list of "I Can't believes" will follow . . .
