Lu arrived in London last week and has been to about a million events. Today we met up for our only event together - the Men's Volleyball. We had tickets for the afternoon and the evening sessions, but the night before we found out that the Aussies were playing first thing in the morning session....... so Lu worked her magic and got herself a ticket and we all turned up at the crack hoping to score tickets for ourselves. Now, you are not supposed to sell your tickets but you are allowed to give them away and sometimes if people can't go or don't need them they'll give them to the box office and they'll give them out to people waiting....... so we waited. Madd's was beside herself. If we didn't get her in, we'd never hear the end of it, so when we saw a man and his wife and kids talking to the box office man, we pounced and Madd's was in. PHEW! Tans and I waited a while, but nobody came by, so instead we took a leisurely walk through the cemetry park across the road from the Earl's Court Exhibition Centre (where the Volleyball was being held) and caught up, which was great.
