i could not help reblogging this. i began to write a comment on her blog, but felt it was getting too long. so decided to reblog it instead.
Looks like u have written a great writeup for flatiron , steak for £10 is a great find, and in soho too. and the pictures show the steak is a nice size too. thanks indeed to ralph, because of your write up (and picture)all of us who read it will know of it too. the picture is an important part of it, as most of us are quite cynical about the price, and will assume it is a small piece of steak for the money.
Having said that i am not joining the queue to get in there.
As for friends, your blog reminded me of what happened to me too in my young days in london. now i come to think of it, that is the best thing about london. i remember that too when i was younger and started living in london. we were a group of friends that hung out and it was a great time. being silly together and laughing a lot at the smallest thing.
I think u will find as u grow older, everyone go their own way, and things fall apart… at least that is what happened to our group. and when it did, it was real difficult to recreate that with new friends. somehow when u are older, it just cannot be repeated. this kind of friendship can only occur when you are young, i think.
I had this idea that I would write a post that would be an update about what I had been up to in the past month or so that I have been M.I.A on this blog but I realised that while interesting, it really wasn’t all that interesting and worthy of excessive discussion.
I had the five things that I was going to talk about listed and had even begun to elaborate on them, but as I was catching the tube home on Monday, feeling like every Monday (rubbish), something occurred to me that I really wanted to discuss. If you are only interested in what I have been doing in the past month or so, I have included what I had written as a note at the bottom of this post and you’re more than welcome to skip to the bottom but I am actually interested in people’s thoughts…

Thanks for the reblog. The steak was really good, particularly for the price and that it is London. You’re missing out if you don’t try it at least once. Everything should be tried at least once.
You make a valid point in your comment about the evolution of friendship and how age can affect group dynamics. Currently I am enjoying my time in London, but I know that it will all come to an end. This group will split up; in fact Ralph leaves to go back to South Africa in a bit over a week and we will all eventually go our separate ways, but while we are here and while we are young, we will continue to live a carefree life.
Perhaps these kind of friendships can’t be carried through to an older age, but I like to hold onto the belief that my friendship with these people will evolve as we age and that we will remain friends; however, if this is not to be the case, then I am just as accepting of that fate and remember that day we made our way around London.
hi gigi, i am sure u will find new friends , because u are still young enough. london is a great melting pot, you get people coming here from all over the world, all young and eager to experience new things.
