Matt and Aly had kindly invited me for Christmas Day at theirs, together with Simon, Cindy and Annabelle and a few others. It was really nice to be with friends on Christmas Day. Aly (well…. the maids) had prepared a fantastic feast. There was champagne, wine and a never ending supply of food. I don’t think I’ve eaten so well in long time and being able to eat outside was great.
We had Secret Santa….and knowing I’m limited on space; a voucher to spend in a local department store was perfect.
After everyone had gone, Matt, Simon and I popped down the local for a few beers before I caught a cab back to my hostel. Once back at the hostel and not wanting the festive spirit to end, I met up with some other backpackers in Little India for a few drinks.
Memorable Points. Having a little piece of England 000’s of miles away. Being with friends. Missing those loved ones back home.
