I have no idea why I cannot handle these $ problems we we should be in charge, we were told on the website that a double room was unavailable for one of the dates, and we were forced to pay and extra 2 pounds for single rooms, it's not like we wanted to book a single room to see how luxurious it could be...the bloody bitch (the hostess at the hostel) went all defensive and cranky and when I told her the situation, said we'll stay in the double room....and paying the extra money, bollocks to her. I could get 20 jam donuts with that money...@_@#
Anyway, we dragged us out and took a walk from our hostel to TATE Britain across the Lambeth bridge...

*TATE Britain...extremely disappointed not seeing any of Hockney's work except a book on him. What i did find is respect for the 1800's, the 'Romantic Victorian Realists'...I don't really know the artists, but some were unbelievable...I somehow got a feeling it has a link to Art Noveau... Another thing i found is very very good leaflets produced by TATE, all for free...

*Buckingham Palace was just LAME, lame-ass LAME.... for tourist, what I got from it was a workout under the torturing sun...

*Spitalfields / Liverpool St... we were so afraid that it would be a lameasslame place again when we walked through the OLD Spitalfields Market (it was worse than St Kilda market or any of that sort)...we walked out of there all droopy and stuff...and we walked a little down and a little and we bumped into the Old Truman Brewery, things got much much better... got a bag from Grand Ofr (bookshop + clothing)....lots of mags + books...

P.S. I have a hayfever situation, it is overpowering any other of my sensations.
