I went to London just after Christmas for a week. It was so cool – so much to see and do! I’ve been to New York City and Washington D.C before, as well as some of the other big cities on the East side, but I reckon London was the best out of them. I just think some of the old buildings mixed in with the new stuff is really cool. When I first crossed the River Thames I was pretty amazed with the skyline. On one side you’ve got all the new buildings of the financial district including this cigar looking building, then places like St. Pauls cathedral and the Houses of Parliament mixed in with it. Slightly away from the river bank is the Tower of London, which is both one of the most typically English structures along with being just an all round cool building. Just think it’s been there in one form or another since the 11^th century – that’s four centuries before America even got discovered!

While I was out there I also met up with an old friend called Nathan Billiton, who’s living there at the moment. We went out in the city a couple of times. The first time we went to some jazz club in Soho, which was ok but not great - a little too dark and dinghy for my liking. I’d heard that the UK had a pretty crazy dance scene, so we went to Fabric. This place is one of Britain’s super clubs – pretty huge, and they had some great DJs playing. If you ever have the chance to go out in London, then Fabric comes as highly recommended.
