tally ho!
right kids, after 6 months of waiting not-very-patiently, my trip to london is finally here. i head off on saturday and will be gone for 4 weeks, including a couple of days in manchester, hamburg and 5 days in paris for my birthday. eep!
needless to say, i'm looking forward to catching up with peeps who i haven't seen for yonks! i'm also looking forward to seeing the rothko exhibition and the rest of the tate, some theatre at the national, ice skating at tower of london (and the tower itself), westminster abbey. i'm also keen to check out the serpentine and the new saatchi gallery (which i didn't get to see in my gallery per day jaunts in 07) and also more of the V&A.
and while that's loads to squish into 3 weeks, if you have any suggestions for absolutely-must-see/do, let me know in the comments section. especially if they're things you can do on a hella tight budget. i like cheap and/or free.
also, if you're in london/england/germany and want to buy any of the drawings i've been selling, ya better get in quick 'cos i'm packing my bags now and leaving the rest at home :) [by the way, you australians will have to wait til i get back, sorry]
i'm hoping to keep posting while i'm there, but forgive me if they're few and far between. i'm sure you understand (although, in the spirit of rob campbell, i'll probably be blogging more frequently, having promised otherwise! ha!)
see you on the (freezing cold) flip-side!

Onya! I can't suggest anything except have a great time - have a pint of guinness and some decent curry in shoreditch ... I'm jealous as hell!
CG - i'm looking forward to it too! i'll catch up with you at the endurance on thursday - if not before.
gemma - monday 26th is australia day, chinese new year and a perfect day to have a northern planners meet-up. simon, rob, andrew and i have chatted about it - i'll call ya when i get to the UK. keep that night free (even though it's a monday).
mayhem - yay! i'm gonna have an ace time. and will be spending much time in the rothko ex at tate modern. awp...
Yeah, the Rothko show is narrowly focused but well worth the ticket, even just for the experience of walking into the expanded room of Seagram murals.
