So have you sorted out anywhere to live yet? Are Emirates providing accommodation for you or just an allowance? We are in one of the Emirates council estates lol

Yes that sounds good he might have to meet us later though as I think he might be in the sim till 10ish. Have they told you where the accommodation is yet - might be around the corner from us :scared: Don't know what sort of deal you are on, but they usually pay all your utilities except phone whilst in company accommodation - so might be worth seeing where it is before committing to a rental contract elsewhere. Don't know if they'll tell you before you start though as we didn't find out until we got here

Ditched Nando's last nite and opted for fish and chips at Cambden Head in Islington........ was gr8 fun.... got to attend the weekly 99 Comedy Club gig upstairs........ absolutely hilarious!!!!!!

Fish and chips at Japengos is still better though. LOL

Spent the nite at my mates place at Old Street, then onto the 149 bus this AM down to London Bridge and then onto the SE Trains into New Eltham, which was followed by a refreshing 1800 yard walk back to my room.

So what did u lot get upto? LOL
