Life in London: August 2006
http://paulandleisainlondon.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 10, 2006. I spent a year in Santander in the north of Spain about 6 years ago and am back for a 6 week refresher course in Spanish! I felt a strange mixture of nostalgia and melancholy during the first week. But I think I’m settling in nicely now, back to the old routine of classes in the morning, feast and siesta in the afternoon, followed by beach and beers in the evening. Am staying with a Spanish family, and they are fantastic characters, and really good people! Me cago en dios.

Life in London: July 2006

Tuesday, July 25, 2006. The Chav - Ja know wha a mea? I've come across some strange things during my time overseas but none more so than the discovery of a creature peculiar to these parts. Most people over here call them Chavs: strange vermin like creatures that speak such an ugly form of English that, once heard, the listener is compelled to leap of a cliff. This clip should give you some idea of what I'm talking about. This is a Bogan (though he doesn't have a mullet):. I wonder what would happen if t...

Life in London: March 2006
http://paulandleisainlondon.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 15, 2006. I know these weblogs, bulk emails, and general accounts of people's everyday lives can sometimes be, for want of a better expression, piss boring. So in the interests of keeping you, the dedicated fan, awake, I've decided to air some of our dirty laundry, as it were. That got your attention, didn't it - stickybeaks! So, this our toilet. It has been a point of contention lately because it gets blocked so easily. And when it gets blocked, it overflows! Posted by Paul at 10:52 pm.

Life in London: November 2006

Friday, November 24, 2006. Throw the Jew down the well. In case you haven't heard, Sacha Baron Cohen is the British comedian who stars in the movie Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, which would have to be the funniest movie I've ever seen. The following clip was not in the movie, it came from the Ali G show - and remember, Cohen himself is Jewish, and graduated from Cambridge. Posted by Paul at 7:34 pm. London, United Kingdom.

Life in London: September 2006

Friday, September 15, 2006. Continuing on with the religious theme from last week, and having been brought up a catholic, I've been pondering a few of the sins that could see me rotting in hell, especially that really annoying one: the sin of masturbation. If everything I've read about the sin is true, then I am going to be truly fucked for all eternity. Only under the blanket with the light out," says one punter. Masturbating not 'aloud' as it would echo around the convent," says another. Don't worry gi...

Life in London: April 2006

Friday, April 14, 2006. Where the bloody hell are you? You may have heard about the recent Australian tourism ad campaign that was initially banned in the UK for using "bloody hell", well an Australian comedy writer has come up with this classic spoof of that ad:. He was then threatened with legal action from Tourism Australia (showing just how "easygoing" they are) and his ad was banned. Posted by Paul at 2:36 pm. Tuesday, April 04, 2006. Don't get too used to this, punk". Posted by Paul at 10:28 pm.

Life in London: February 2006

Monday, February 13, 2006. We are curled up on the sofa - 9.15pm in England, so morning for most of you! On TV is a doco called The 80-year-old Children, which is about a family in India where five out of seven of the children have a disease called Progeria, meaning they age abnormally quickly. It's incredible; feeling pretty lucky right now. Today was Paul's first. Day off, thanks to half term. (I still haven't managed to get out of him what time he got up! Thank you lots for all your comments! Joey cam...

Life in London: June 2006
http://paulandleisainlondon.blogspot.com/2006_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, June 28, 2006. I'm emotionally fragile right now. My wallet was stolen the other day, from my bag, by a primary school student! Talk about daring. At that age I thought talking during silent reading was the ultimate in hell raising. And while we're on the topic of criminals, a few months ago I witnessed a real life failed attempt at a citizen's arrest! It was then that I thought to myself, God my life is exciting. It's out of my hands, honey.". Is it written in the constitution or something?
