Congratulation For Birth

London - London

Today we have a new appointment. Between Sundays, we meet with another team to carry out his plan. Today I'm going well and I will try to design the logo. Hurry
pleasantries we try to move it later if we come out the other Rastas. To our unpleasant surprise to discover that the train station that we should take, and that 20 minutes would have brought us to, today does not pass because there are works in progress. After an initial confusion between being the solution and contact the other team members to warn them that we do half an hour late.
when it finally arrives, I find myself inside a building that houses offices for rent, even to "hours", with all amenities, from the projector, the various boards, an Internet supercucina iperattrezzata. In fact, just inside
beginning to know the other three guys (programmers) while we drink coffee and nibble candy bars. Connect the computer takes stock of the situation and what you hope to achieve by the end of the day.

The hours start to spend and I spend reviewing several solutions, first playing under the name of the project, composing and decomposing, then clearly the meaning and so on. At the end of the day will be much simpler and less extensive than thought at the start (thankfully).

We worked well up to 17 (closed lunchtime), with great concentration and isolated from the outside world (because my brother showed me the phone because his condition was unloading).

At 17 and something, we are outdoors and you can make an appointment for the next meeting. Take a bus and go on the fly. In exchange we understand that if we do not want to be late to the appointment of the evening, we must avoid going home. We arrive in Soho, a little ahead of its time, and we take a ride around up to a tasty pastry shop run by Italians who recognized us from afar. We enter the pub, we sit at one of those high tables with Sgabellone and waiting for Aaron and Piotr begin to enjoy a pint.

Aaron is now an old friend of mine, all the times I came in he was always perfidious Albion. And it is from him that I spent the New Year (Too bad there is not even Sam).

arrive soon and will start to play. If in those days I felt a little tied in speaking and understanding the language (but I often had to do with Indian boys who, like Fra says, are for the advanced course) now I finally feel at ease. And I have not even finished the first beer!
The hours are then spent flitting between pints and whiskey (I discovered that Jamison's like and I know that coconut) between stereotypes and profanity and experiences of travel, invitations (if you come to Rome ...) and lifestyles .
When we decide to get up the place is now deserted and we walked to Trafalgar Square. On the road convinced Aaron to get some cigars, and we light them, such as tobacco, even my memories begin to fade and scatter in the cold in London. We sat on the stairs and we chatted central, and I've also marked the territory, incited by those who felt at home in one of the most visited places in the world with two thugs in the security behind us who had sensed something, but they were not sure (but certainly some camera has done its task).
The night ends with us that we sneak on a bus, miss our stop and we can make it on foot to collapse in bed. Anyway a very nice evening that we had paid off the bad luck the day before (for the record, today the weather was beautiful!)
