      Today was the last free day to look around the Royal Observatory at Greenwich so we jumped on the DLR and headed down south.

      We headed to Greenwich Park where we were given lunch for free. There were lots of people running around with platters of sandwiches and handing them out to passers by. They said they wanted to create a magic moments in everyone's day.

      After lunch we walked up the hill to the Royal Observatory. Where we found the centre of the earth, the Prime Meridian Of The World where you can stand with one foot in East Longitude and one foot in West.

      We had a look around the rest of the museum which is filled with awesome clocks. We then went to the science centre, which had lots of fun things to play around with and we even got to look through a special telescope at the sun, where we could see sun spots.

      There was a great little bookshop filled with old books that had them arranged in the colours of the rainbow. Tom found an old map of Maida Vale and our street.

    We headed back down to Greenwich and went for lunch at Paul Rhodes where I got to have soup in a bowl made of bread. It was very filling but I liked it. The woman serving it called it "soup in a bread".

    Tom and I also shared a carrot cake and brownie, because we can never choose between them.

      We had some time to kill before a Ruby On Rail talk we were going to in the evening, so we took a train past Stratford to see how the Olympics are coming along.

  13. Edit

    It was then time for the Ruby On Rails talk at Skills Matter. Tony came along too, so it was good to see him but most of the talk went over my head.

    Tom managed to get himself on @[110557435632451:Tech Crunch] today by finding hiding code on @[20531316728:Facebook].

    It's Tony's birthday tomorrow, so after the talk we took him to Tinsel Town Diner for a milkshake and surprise birthday sundae with an Oscar. He looked so shoked when they brought it out and the TV started playing birthday messages from the stars.
