This is a second afternoon I am in UK and close to London. It is rather
strange for me to sit on wrong side in car and even stranger is to drive on
other side of the road ;-). I am always shocked when looking at car next to
me and realizing there is no driver. And if you look at license plate of a
car I am renting and you are from Slovakia, than you understand it all. So
here it is picture of it and focus on last three letters ;-)
Yesterday evening after I arrived I did some training drive so I am able
to drive today in full traffic. It went quite ok. Just need to get used to
different distance from driver and left side of the car. This is for me the
biggest problem, always driving too much on left side of the road.
Otherwise I like it here very much. Especially part outside of the London.
I had great lunch today at this great restaurant just in country side. Sun
was great, nice 17C so I enjoyed it on their open garden, looking to the
blue sky.
The hotel is disaster. They moved me two times already. First I have got
room with window facing wall just 10cm from it!!! Second room has broken
Internet connection. This third one is terribly noisy as it is above some
cooling fans, or whatever. Just terrible. If you ever go to London Gatwick,
do not choose Holiday Inn hotel just next to the airport! I will inform our
booking department that they should just drop this hotel from choice. Is
really terrible. I hope I can survive until Friday.
