adrian and i went banking today. the allied bank in london is conveniently open on weekends for working people like me who send money home.
with the advent of internet banking (all of mine and adrian's are done on internet)we do this differently..
the money we send home are done over the counter because if we do internet banking, there are some currency fluctuations which affect what we send home,usahay mag minaro ang bangko..
*if the money we send online is expected to arrive 3 days after (which is standard number of days) at (example) 90 pesos to a pound, they register it as if it arrived on the second day, which could be 88.50 to a pound...this doesnt sound much but if you're sending more than 500 pounds or more, sakit sa dughan ang difference).*

normally it only takes us 45 to 50 minutes (door to door) for us to get to the bank, today, we were stuck in motorway traffic. there were 3 incidences on the road today which held us up.
there was major roadworks and a motorbike accident on the A13, and Trafalgar square and a big part of London was closed due to St. Patrick's parade.
Adrian's cool and placid demeanor was lost during the entire journey...there was even a point he suggested that i'd keep on driving awhile he walks the last remaining 3 km to the bank (we have been sat there for almost 35 minutes)..can you imagine the argument that ensued? i was flabbergasted that he would run to the bank and leave me in crazy traffic.
we left the house at 10:50am. we got to the bank at 1:56pm (the clock on the car), and thank goodness, the bank manager was smoking outside, and saw me running to the bank and lead me inside. waahhh, the stress!

after banking, we ate at the mexican resto that i have been craving since the last time i was there.
thank goodness, i was wearing my supergirl necklace, we made it to the bank!!

went to get my monthly dose of filipino faves...
stress gone completely!
