Tour Snippts




So my very good friend Nnamdi called  last week to probably inform me that finally he will be coming to London from Scotland.  In fact i have totally forgotten about his intending visit to because he has been saying this for three months and finally he made up his mind to come over.  So after our conversation that faithful day, i totally forgot or let me say it escaped my mind cha cha. He got into London on sunday called me to probably inform me and we planned to meet up in central London, walk around, bond together because it has been like two years since we both last saw and at least have some beer in a nice pub around the central area.  The next day as early as 10 am in the morning while still on my precious bed fighting weather to stand up or not,  my phone rang and behold it was my friend Nnamdi telling me that he was already on his way to central London since we both decided to meet up around that time... The next thing that came out from my mouth was "chineke mu oooo" because i was still lazying in the bed and sincerely speaking no strength was left in me again thanks to diamond that decided to call me on Skype during the night and we both gisted till midnight (well our gist na story for another day loll).

I sincerely managed to drag no let me say jump out of my bed rushed into the shower brushed and in the process of having my bath, the worst now happened....  president Obama started calling me for a very urgent meeting (Laugh my ass out). I saw myself rushing out from the bath tub and ran running into the toilet to finally answer him. Abeg abeg no form ajebo here it practically happens to everybody (Lolll). That one took extra thirty minutes or there about and then i ran back to the bathroom to continue my precious bath another wahala now happened..... The hot water refused to come out. Choi i ran CRAZY. Now because of how cold the weather is presently the hot water easily gets cold in the morning unlike during the summer period. This time around again i jumped out from the bath tub rushed and switched on the "Hot Water" pump, now this takes another fifteen to twenty minutes. I tried forming  James Bond by wanting to manage the cold water to bath like that  since i was already late ( Oh boy nobe person tell me say make i jejely respect my old age). Finally the hot water was ready and by then i have already gotten like ten missed calls from my friend ( I tire for the whole thing myself to begin explain give am wetin happen). Rushed out from the bathroom and threw in a shirt, jeans,  shoe  and jacket (for the cold) into my body. Funny enough  i even ended up forgetting to have my precious breakfast which i promised myself not to miss that day because i have missed it for four days straight. Rushed out from my house straight to the train station, as i was approaching the station, i heard the sound of the train that just arrived leaving choi because this means that i have to wait for another fifteen or twenty minutes before another train comes.  Now my friend Nnamdi was from his end bombading me with calls that i almost ran mad. well i had to pick the call and before he could utter a word i finished him with plenty curse. The boy self even tire for me.

Finally the next train  arrived and i was on my way to the Charing cross train station. Now when i finally saw him it was already almost one in the afternoon.  Well everybody is used to it, it is called African Time ( abeg no crucify me nobe my fault). Immediately i came out from the train station and saw my paddy, i began to explain to him what really happened and why i was late then for a minute i paused and asked myself why i dey even tell explain to am like say e be one babe wey i dey come meet or take out for a date (Lolll). We both laughed about everything and our main journey started for the day.  We first started by walking inside the London Gallery which was opposite right opposite the train station.  I am a lover of arts especially nice paintings and one thing i have always wished i had was the ability to make meaning out from  a collection of nice paintings when ever i see one inside a museum or gallery. Before we entered inside my eyes immediately took notice of these funny creatures in my friends voice just in front of the gallery.






  However, the funniest thing that happened was that, through out  our walk inside the gallery,  i totally forgot to take pictures of the paintings insde (Weird init? ) but instead i took a picture of the building after we came out.
