England London China Town Pho

28 June 2010

I am working, so dont expect much

Today I worked, all day, its a common misconception that I just go on holidays all over the world.
I woke up at 6 and had to catch a train north of the city, but I was early so I wandered around Kings Cross station and saw nothing of interest. But it was quite hot, 30C again today.

During work I got to go to Maplin to buy a female to female gender convertor, I rang them and got a retarded child whom I asked if they had one in stock, and he just couldnt grasp what I was asking for, no matter how I described it (d-type, 9 pin serial etc.) he just kept asking me if it was for an xbox or if maybe USB would be better. So I hung up, and called back, 3 times, until someone else answered, and he told me straight away that they had it. This was hilariously frustrating.

In the evening I again just wandered around the city, in the heat, its still quite amazing to me that it can be fully light at 9:30pm. I saw a fight in chinatown but didnt get a good picture, see down for details.

A fight broke out just outside the shop. The lady of the house locked the shop door. Outside theres roundhouses and sweep the leg johnny going on, and I cant get a decent picture. Then her sons rushed down from upstairs and ran outside, and she was yelling and screaming, and they tore off down the street.
I wanted to leave to see what was going on but my dinner had only just arrived.
