Hello to all our devoted friends and family
I guess the big news is that on friday I finished my job and I'm looking for another job this week. The people from work gave me a bottle of wine and we went out for drinks after work which was really fun.
Everyone wish me luck in finding another job.
On the weekend we went to see David Blaine. I don't know if you have heard him in Australia. He's from America and he used to be a magician but now he does all these crazy stunts. He burried himself alive for one week and he incased himself in a ice block for 48 hours. Well he's current stunt is living in a glass box over looking the tower bridge and going without water for 44 days.
So, of we went to tower bridge to see him. It was quiet boring actually, he just sat there and sometimes he would wave to the people on the bridge. Lots of people go to look at him and wait for him to do something interesting.. like go to the toliet or stand up. He has been getting harrassed in his little box because kids have been throwing eggs at him and going there in the middle of the night and playing loud music. He's girlfriend has had to come to the rescue and clean the windows. Yesterday, some guy tried to climb up the ropes and cut his water supply. So, its interesting to follow whats been happening to David Blaine.
This weekend my grandfather is coming from Australia, so I guess we will be doing lots of tourist activities and showing him around London. Paul did take some pictures of David, so we will put them up for all of you to see. Unfortunately there was no egg throwing the day we went.
Please comment and write to us about what you have been doing!!!!
Lots of Love
Tram and Paul

hello - I just read somewhere about that David Blaine guy. He's going WITH water but no food for the entire time (not without water!). Seems pointless to me really - and what's magician-y about that? It's not like he's making the box disappear or anything!

Hey Kris,
Yeah I meant food. I think its pretty pointless and he isnt even doing it for a charity or a cause. Its meant to be for his 'ART'. In the newspaper they keep like a diary of what he does every hour for the whole day and its pretty funny because he's not doing alot. Anyway, we know that we have to post up more photos and updates. We've been a bit slack.
Thanks for the message!!
Tram
