Blindingly good fun…

It’s been an eventful end of my week thus far.

On Thursday when travelling to my solicitors for an important meeting I was riding the Northern Line when all of a sudden it stopped very abruptly. I was holding my travelcard in my hand when I was thrown from my perch onto the floor and the corner of my travelcard ended up literally in my eye. I screamed loud enough that I think most people in London heard me. I continued to the lawyer for my hour long important meeting, holding my weeping painful eye – and afterwards got them to call me a taxi to Moorfield Eye Hospital. After much probing, anasthetic, and tissues they determined I had a abrasion and small piercing of my cornea – so I’ve been having to wear a lovely eye patch and put antibiotic drops in every two hours.

I spent today wandering around London with Paul, we started off at Borough Market where we tried cheese and I had wonderful oysters and took even more photos. We headed from there over to Spitalfields Market via watching a small bit of the Lord Mayor’s Parade and even managed to get interviewed by some foreign students! Then we went on to trendy Shoreditch for a coffee and some snacks in an awesome bar, and after that over to Bethnal Green to visit a museum. Now I’m firmly seated on the sofa, putting my feet up and relaxing.
