Party Time - Excellent

This weekend, Jon's client invited us to a party at his house, so we figured it would be a great networking opportunity. This is the non-expat party we've been invited to so it should be interesting!

Of course it couldn't entirely convenient and in Central London, but we decided to make the most of it and make a day trip somewhere, TBD. I investigated how we could get there via public transport and found a train that takes about 1.5 hours, costs £17 per person each way and the last train back was at 10:30pm. Jon's client graciuosly offered to put us up in a hotel overnight, but somehow we both decided sleeping in our comfy bed in Nell Gwynn House might be a better option. Needless to say we opted to rent a car, but not before hemming and hawing whether we could hack driving on the other side of the road. And by we, I mean Jon. Anyway, we rented an automatic for fear of stalling on the M3 for having shifted through the gear 'backwards.' More details in the next post on how we got on!
