nice. that pic from the top of st paul's kinda gives a vertiginous feeling. the tower bridge pic is neat too.

no pints of bitter, or curry?

did you go into the Tate? great place. how long are you there for?

we were there for 4 days.



we did go into this pub for some F&C and a pint. i don't like beer
but i managed to get 1/2 of it down.

NOW, the indian food i am super into and found a great place
a block off oxford. at the end of the lamb curry they gave you
a scoop full of spices to chew? i did, i little too long and it started to taist like dove soap. i think i should have swalloed sooner. ]
then 10 min later my face got hot liek i was sunburn. our whole
group did? lol no telling what was in there. felt like a alergic reaction.

yeah, the tate was cool. HUGE entry. i thought it was a ship yard
but in the fodors it said it was a ex power station built in the 1930's

only b/c it has the sun in it.




it was cold and windy till the last day.

you were right it was super pricy! 42 pounds for 3 at the indian place.

exchange was basically 2-1. i didn't buy much. food and a Picasso poster, Le Chen. we have a winnie dog.

Watchin' you. Writing it all down.
Nice move marrying Julianne Moore.

As for the after dinner spices/seeds. I know that many Indian resturants serve fennel or anise seeds (very similar) after dinner. Sometimes they are candied like m&ms.
