Thanks for checking back faithful Omar-stalkers.
Sorry it's been a few days since my last post. So many things to write and so little energy to type it.
I'll start off by say WE GOT A FLAT!!! It was a long 5 days but we signed on a flat on Edgeware road (originally built by the Romans and not far from a popular hanging place--heads that is). So a run-on sentence summary of our flat hunt: we went all over town; up to Abbey Road (yes we walked crosswalk or zebra lines as they call here--albeit a bit quickly because the cars and buses aren't very forgiving), down to south of the River Thames into Brixton where it's predominantly Afro-Carribbean, way up north to Dollis Hill where you'd see the quintessential London town in any movie, but ultimately sorted ourselves in Edgeware. It is a very middle eastern/indian/posh part of London. Lots of ethnic shops and restaurants but once you get off the main drag it's residential. Time for some mango nectar (jealous coop?)...more blogs soon about other adventures the past few days. Pictures are forthcoming
Much Love,
O
