Staying over at the Dover

Caught the bus back to London yesterday afternoon. Took the Tube for the first time from Victoria Station out to Borough, where I checked in to the Dover Castle (which I had booked thinking it was actually in Dover. Check addresses twice, book hotels once).
My roommates:
Damian, a Chineese student studying marketing in Nottingham
Anna and Nikki: Two friends from Texas, studying in London and Barcelona
Eddie: A 40 something black man.
When I walked in, I found Anna and Nikki in be together cuddling for warmth, talking to Eddie. Eddie has a thick Caribbian accent- turns out he's from Barbados. Then he mentions he's reading the Da Vinci Code- in Norwegian.
Apparently, he married a norwegian, moved there, divorced, got in to leagal trouble, spent two years in jail, got released, got stabbed, sued his stabber, and is now on his way to Thiland.

Needless to say, it made for an interesting night of conversation in the Hostel Pub, along with a few other Hostellers, all Aussies and Americans.

Oh, and I met my first bonafide cockney soccer hoolagin. Really a nice guy.

Im getting kicked off, so I'll post about my fun day in the rain with Reid next time I get on.

Hope all is well with you, my loyal readers. Leave comments and let me know what you're up to!
