Just a quick update...
Last night I went to a pub near by to play some english pool with one of my American friends and 3 of our British friends...it was really fun. English pool is a little different than american pool...there are still 15 balls, but they are all a little smaller than in the US. also the balls dont have numbers...instead there are just 7 balls of one color, and 7 of the other (and the black ball). if you knock in a red ball first, you are red, yellow first, you are yellow. (sometimes one of the set of 7 will also have a stripe, but that just depends on the set of balls you are using). If you want to play 9 ball (referred to as snooker), you have to go to a "fancy hall". here the balls are numbered 1-9 and the rules are very similar to our nine ball.
Today our ISA group is going on a tour at the British Museum...it's supposed to be amazing. I'll let you all know how it goes.
I've been listening to alot of British Hip-Hop/R&B...i think it's really good. If you want to look up a really popular artist search for "Giggs ft. BoB" on youtube...the song is called Don't Go There (the lyrics are a little vulgar, just a warning...but I just thought I'd let you know what kind of stuff is played in pubs, restaurants and stores around the city)
That's all for now...gotta go catch the tube
