Well however thought that English children would be well mannered got that wrong, big time. They were so talkative it was about second grade, that is my guess anyways since they do not have the same names as us. I was only there for a half day, and thank God for that! They did not stop talking, the pushed and shoved right in front of me, yet held the door open for me at the same time????? It was interesting I had no idea what to do, which I know would be the same back home but I just had a lot of trouble understanding the way their schools are set up. I did have a little bit of a hard time understanding what some of the kids where saying, and I do not think quoting Mary Poppins at them would help, but thanks Erin. Luckily there was a rehearsal for a play and an assembly that took up a major part of the day. And of course I got lost on the way there but I had given myself lots of time so I was O.K. The kids despite being kind of pains where really nice, they all wanted to help and wanted to tell me about themselves, I just wish they could be quite also. I am scheduled to go back to the school tomorrow, but not that class. But the teacher is gone all weekend so we will see where I end up. It was pretty far west of the city, it was in Zone 5 if anyone has an idea of London, most things in the city, are in zone one, and then you live in the outer zones.
Speaking of living...... I got a flat!!!! The pics are of it, it is small but in a pretty good area. It is the flat that is owned and above the "Adult" shop. I like it a lot! I move in on Thursday and am excited to get out of the hostel and have my own space. I meet the couple that live there and they seemed pretty nice a little older then me. They were watching friends in the communal room so they cant be that bad. I hope everyone is doing well lots of love !
