Today wongo and myself visted the floating museum that is the HMS Bellfast a ww2 cruiser. It has 12 6-inch guns and numerous 4-inch and anti-aircraft guns. I felt like i was 6 year old again playing with the targeting systems and looking at the models, the ships guns are huge;

(thats me, just being childish i guess.... it was fun thou).
Time just seems to fly here, were up early in the morning eat quickly and go out to see london but before were ready it's all dark, oh right the sun sets at 3:30 here..... The temperature i can deal with but it being pitch black at 4:30 is quite disconcerting. We've got a few sights for the next couple of days London war museum (which is doing a james Bond expo, awsome i know), Camden Market or hippe central as i've been told, the portrait gallery looks like it's going to be quite busy!

Ha, biddo, are you behind the safety barrier to get closer to the guns?
maybe, maybe not - lets just say i'm happy there's no marines on that boat anymore. Also you'd know how hard would it be to get that boat running again?
