Oxo Girls - Get noticed.
The famous OXO Towers.
They used to make beef stock here (mmmm...gravy...) - but now the 8th floor restaurant, located along the Thames, holds one of the best views in London, and guess who had the best seat in the house for lunch???

It looks like a fake background behind us but here is Rick, Tash, me and Kev on the 8th floor pretending to come from "work" again. One of us seems to be doing a better job than the other three!!!
I also surprised my British friends with some Canadian themed Smarties which I had bought while I was in Canada. Now, they have Smarties in Britain but they don't come in box packaging, they come in tube packaging so the box was a pleasant surprise. As well, these Smarties were only red and white and the white ones had maple leafs on them. On the packaging it said, "You eat the red ones last, eh?" which I thought was cute but none of the Brits got it because they never used that tag line over here. So now you know a fun fact - When Britons eat their Smarties, they don't eat the red ones last.
Speaking of hard candy shells, these suckers melt in your mouth, not in your hands...
AB Bound sent us some Edmonton Oilers and Toronto Maple leaf personalized M and Ms to snack on in London! Thanks AB! Had some Guinea fowl (!?!?) for dinner with D and B, we passed on the Kangaroo burgers although we were tempted. We then met up with Jenna and Eddy at the Old Vic for Kevin Spacey's current play "A Moon to be Misbegotten". It was good, a bit long, but the acting was really good. I won't say anything more cause I now the Space-myster reads the blog and I wouldn't want him to mistake anything I said for, "Spacey is a better film actor," cause that would be a BIG misunderstanding. BIG.
So another great day in the life of a un-employed non-starving actress.
