Seeing Johnboyy!


This wednesday me and Alex decided to go and see how Johnboyy is because none of us minions have been able to see him in a while. Plus Alex needed to go to London for a photography project so it was an oppertunity to hang around with friends, walk around London and take photos. Alex drove to mine and parked his car at my place and we walked to Kingston station. It was a result because a ticket to London Waterloo with all day travel card included costs £7.50. But I get mine for £5 because I have a student card. When the guy saw we needed two he charged Alex for the same price as mine. So I saved him some money, yay! Always a good result.

So we waited for a train and Alex took some pictures of a VERY fat pigeon which I spotted sat above us. We spent the train ride discussing how we would survive a zombie apocalypse together since we'd both watched Zombieland the night before "BILL FUCKING MURRAY!" anyone? Alex decided he would come up with his own set of rules and write them down. Funny times. When we got to Waterloo it was a very quick and easy couple of stops to charing cross. When we arrived we phoned JB and he promptly arrived. We greeted him with miniony hugs and started walking. We walked all across London that day, from Tranfalger Square to downing street, to the London eye and all the way back around again. When we stopped at Downing Street there was a car being searched, they search really throughly! We stood there admiring the big guns the people guarding the place and Alex said "What do you think they'd do if I ran up to them like this?" and made a gun shape out of his hands. Johnboyy replied "They'd shoot you." Such a simple yet such a funny reply.

We stopped for lunch at McDonalds and sat outside on the grass right next to the London eye which I've never seen so close up before. Thank God it was a nice day, not as nice as we expected but at least it wasn't raining. Then we walked on towards where some skaters were. Alex took some pictures of them in action and eventually submited a photo of just some graffiti which did look very cool. The winds were now picking up and it was getting colder but we soldiered on. Me and JB didn't mind standing around and chatting whilst Alex took his photos. After all, he did get some great pictures. At the end of the day I made sure we all got a photo together. So we headed back to Trafalger Square and JB held up the camera Myspace style and took a picture of us all. It's such a nice photo, I love it so much! It was a great day. So we said our goodbyes and we went off in our separate ways.

When me and Alex got back to Kingston we waited for Joe, Ellie, Matt, Emily, Lewis and Rachel to turn up at the "little italy" resturant we were all going to tonight. Alex met the rest of my friends he hadn't already met and we had a really nice meal there. Full of funny stories and Alex being generally very loud as he does. Bless him, he can't help it. I think it's down to a mixture of extreme confidence and ADHD! After the meal everyone expect me, Ellie and Alex went to wetherspoons for a drink. Ellie had work to do and me and Alex were knackered from walking around London all day. So instead we went back and played Lego rock band and Alex checked out his photos. Later on the guys came back round to mine and we spent the rest of the evening playing Texas Hold 'em. Great fun! Such an amazing evening and most of us were a little tipsy! Which added to the funnyness of it. It even moved onto Truth or Dare, the highlight was Joe running across Middle Mill with just his pants on and Lewis on his back! So funny! Good, good times. An amazing past couple of days.

Bex is staying over tonight which should be awesome fun as is Lewis' mate Joe. Alex is coming round but not for long, just to meet Bex, drop off my glasses and to pick up his Guitar Hero stuff. So it's going to be an interesting evening! I just hope I can wake up by then. Still very tired.
