In this our last week in London, people keep asking us what we liked best about living in London. Every time we have been asked we can never really pin point one thing. Maybe its being close to everything or maybe its being locals down at Chutneys, the Indian restaurant down in Wimbledon that does a great buffet on Sundays for £7.50. They now expect us every Sunday.
I can pin point one thing I don't like - the freezing cold! I know it is something that is obvious (and have probably mentioned numerous times before) but if I can at least create some energy by whinging about it I can fight off my numb toes which are currently in socks and Ugg boots.
Tomorrow night is the EMB work Christmas party and it looks like it is going to be a good night. My only worry is fighting off hypothermia getting there and back. The place we are going to is near London Bridge and is going to have a full 3 course meal, circus act and disco. Once I get there I will be fine. The only problem is that the dress code is cocktail attire. Making a woman wear a cocktail dress in potentially sub zero temperatures (or close enough to) is just plain rude. I get cold on a summer night in Sydney. I'm shivering just thinking about it. If its not windy I should be ok. Stay tuned to see if I survive....

Once you get there and get your beer jacket on you'll be fine.
