Radio Europe

Here I am in Aalborg and already I'm very impressed. I tuned into the radio and the first song they played was a remix of the Baywatch theme! Almost as good as London radio; they spend much of the day making prank calls to German people and getting them to translate rude things like "I want to cover you with cream and lick it off". Classic!! They were pretty jazzed about the game with Sweden despite the horrendous screw ups, mostly because they still get to play Ecuador.

Its a good thing I got out of London though, because in one day I managed to completely ruin my budget and will have to cut out food on the later days of the trip to compensate. It was a nice day and I stayed awake except for a couple of cat naps in Hyde Park.

Last night was a blast, sleeping at Stansted for the second, and hopefully last, time in my life. The number of transient backpackers trying to get a bit of sleep there is quite amazing, and so are the number of alarms that go off on a regular basis. I was so tired though that I did get a few hours of sleep and woke up realising that I'd slept past the opening of the check in counters. Big mistake. Ryanair seems to afford the 1 pence flights by reducing the number of check in personnel. So I spent a lovely morning fighting back throngs and protecting my turf in a mass of humanity to put the Titanic to shame.

Then this morning I checked out Aarhus, where it was pissing rain, and then I passed out on a train to AAlborg, and here I am searching for somewhere to stay tonight.
