Jp Live at the Barbican

I work near the Barbican Centre. (All I had known about it was that Billy Bragg had played there.) The other day, I went out for a walk at lunch with a couple of my co-workers and we explored. From what I was told, originally it was an idea for community housing. There are high-rise flats, above ground walkways, gardens, etc... all above the street level below. There is one spectacular place where you can see the hanging garden of ivy, etc... reaching down to the man-made water garden below.

I hope to put up some pictures of it soon.

Still getting up to speed with things at work. Other than than that, things are going well. Met with some friends, saw my ex, meeting new people. Life is proceeding and the homesickness is decreasing.
