Harry Potter ... and the Chamber of Secrets

Ok I took my time for watching Harry Potter, but I do my best to make up for time lost !

The second opus is more energic and tough that the first one.

Harry Potter ... and the philosopher Stone

Here we are ... now I can tell that I saw Harry potter at least one time in my life !!

The movie is very pleasant even if I am not a kid any more and even if the beginning is a little bit slow !

French Lunch with Chinese people ...

Blanquette of veal for everybody ! (more precisely, blanquette of beef !)
My Chinese co-tenant seem to enjoy it, but not the Roquefort ... they seem to be fully scared by it !!!

Lara Croft 1 ...

Pleasant movie, we do not need to think to much !

Program Centre ... For What ?

One week after the beginning of my training, I have my new CV !!

This program allows not only to have a new CV, but also to have some information or services very useful for unemployed : CV, application letter, job interview..., but also to phone, send CV use internet, print advertisements ... for free !!! (And I have also a part of my transport fees paid.)

Program Centre...

I go to my 9 AM appointment at the Programme Centre and I discover that I am enrolled in a 3 weeks training and then I have to go there at least 3 half days a week...

I know, that is not very serious, but I did not attend my first afternoon at the Program Centre...
But that is for a good reason because I must :
  • go back at Acton Town to give the missing document for my NNI
  • go at the Job Centre to give them my new adress
  • go to the language school to warn them I will not attend the last week courses.

Ghost Ship ...

DVD renting, first candidate : Ghost Ship in VO (of course) ...
pleasant, not too much scaring.... there are better movies, but there are also worst !!!

Here we are, the big departure !

  • Direction St Exupery aeroport.
  • Check-in and boarding without any problems after a meticulous search.

Here we are ... London...

  • ... landing on time !! with view on the last Concorde of British Airways on the runway. I would have seen it at least one time, quite close ! (I am finally a little bit disapointed because it is quite small ... but only 100 passengers could fly with it, and not 300 or even more than 400 !)
  • ... no needs to wait for the luggage, because they arrived quickly !
  • Tube for going to Hanwell, in the West of London. (Hopefully, I found some kind people to help me for carrying my luggage outside from the station, which does not have any lift or escalator !)
  • After leaving my stuff in my new 'home', go to the Job Centre, for my firts English administrative step.
