An update and a birthday...

You're ridiculously overdue a blog update...sorry.

Although, there have been no ripples during my period of absence which generally gives me the impression that nobody noticed nor cared. Standard.

However, whilst pretending that somebody is reading this and does care, I'll continue.

I've been working and living in London for nearly six weeks now. It has been incredible so far.

I always loved London. But, living here gives me a sense of pride and achievement. There's a 24-hour buzz that I longed for. The pace of life is so much faster and I find it exhilarating. Each morning, no matter how tired I feel or how grey the day has begun, the walk over Vauxhall Bridge on my way to the office revives my spirit. The incredible view across the River Thames. The sight of the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, the London Eye and the Gherkin.

I just hope my love of the city doesn't fade. I hope my experiences only get better. I hope to meet more new and interesting people and discover more of the city's beautiful, hidden treasures.

I must go out with my camera and take more photographs to feature on a blog.

Tomorrow, I'm due to return back home to Manchester. It's my 23rd birthday on Monday and the weekend will be spent catching up with family and, hopefully, some friends.

Happy Birthday to me. :-)

Thanks for reading.
