She's Danish and arrived in London the same week I did (almost ten years ago), and we met on our second week here. So we ran around and did lots of tourist stuff together, everything from Windsor Castle to East Street market. It's great having her around, and I hope I'll get to draw her a few times before she moves into her next place.\\r\n\\r\nLots of brain-twisting stuff going on over on the \u003Ca href=\"http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00729d9\">Reith Lectures\u003C/a> on BBC Radio 4, and last night Stephen Fry hosted \u003Ca href=\"http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00l0xxg\">\u003Ci>I'm Sorry, I Haven't a Clue\u003C/i>\u003C/a>, which was good fun. I thought about telling him on Twitter that I liked it, but then I saw he was already very busy that evening setting himself up as the internet moderator of the \u003Ca href=\"http://twitter.com/#search?q=%23iranElection\">Iran election notices\u003C/a> and finding internet servers the Iranian government hadn't managed to block. It's turning into this huge internet cat-and-mouse thing and loads of people outside of Iran seem to be getting involved, which is cool. Hmm, I wonder what's going to happen. Apparently there's going to be an official recount of the votes now.\\r\n\\r\n\u003Ci>Edit:\u003C/i> Here's a picture my neighbour friend drew last night for her homework assignment to show 'London Burning'. I think they probably meant the \u003Ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Fire_of_London\">Great Fire of London in 1666\u003C/a>, so her architecture is a little historically inaccurate, but it still looks cool:\\r\n\\r\n\u003Cimg src=\"https://images.jabberworks.co.uk/lj/londonburn-57fbc0123e.jpg\">\\r\n\\r\nWe posted it on Twitter and were well chuffed, minutes later, to see a \u003Ca href=\"http://twitter.com/morrisonbrink\">bio architect in France\u003C/a> really liked it and reposted it. He let us know about a group called \u003Ca href=\"http://www.urbansketchers.com/2009/06/statement-of-purpose.html\">Urban Sketchers\u003C/a> (or \u003Ca href=\"http://twitter.com/urbansketchers\">urbansketchers\u003C/a> on Twitter). \\r\n\u003Ci>Just to note, I'm not going completely over to Twitter, it's only good for certain things and LiveJournal is way better!\u003C/i>","2009-06-16T08:32:00.000Z","charlotte-at-breakfast",[],"charlotte at breakfast",1776628732764]
