Laura's Trip to London

My application to the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons was approved, but in order to become registered I had to go down to London to show my degree and sign the registry. So I decided to take the train down the day before the appointment and make a little trip out of it. I ended up sitting next to a delightful old man on the train who really wouldn't stop chatting with me despite the fact that I was reading. Once he found out I was a vet he told me all about his dog who had a kidney removed and asked me a lot of questions about dog kidneys. He was very sweet.

I treated myself to lunch at my favorite sandwich place, Pret a manger and ate lunch on the steps at Trafalgar Square.



Then I wandered throught the National Gallary before heading to my hostel for a nap.


After my nap I went to chinatown for some sushi.

It was the strangest place, fast food sushi that each peice was individually wraped in clear plastic!! And so you just bought by the piece, about 75p per piece.


I saw the play 'Wicked' and it was fantastic!
