Después pase por el cole a buscar a los chicos y fuimos a su casa con Lauri que estaba con el auto.

Me contaron como fue la decisión y todo eso, los niños están felices de volver por suerte ! Como siempre, sesión de "futbol" con Lucas en el living (!!!!) y con Mateo, hasta que ligué un pelotazo en el ojo y quede "descalificada por fuerza mayor". En fin, seguí la charla con L y Ch, sobre la "readaptación" a Argentina y todo lo que eso conlleva, la flia, cambio de estilo de vida, etc, todo un cambio, suena raro tener que adaptarse al país en el que uno nació y vivió toda la vida, pero eso siempre pasa cuando se vive afuera mucho tiempo...

A las 9.30 me fui a casa...

Aca hay un texto sobre una frase muy escuchada entre los que vivimos en Londres y viajamos en subte: MIND THE GAP, que significa? Lean esto:
.
'Mind The Gap' is not just an announcement that you'll hear the London Underground subway system when a train arrives at a station. Much more than just a warning about the 'gap' between a carriage and the platform, it's a phrase that has entered popular culture and become synonymous with London. People who have visited England's capital city say 'Mind the Gap' to each other - often accompanied by knowing glances and subtle nods - while the rest of the world wonders what they are on about. This article introduces some little known facts about the phrase and its usage.
Origins
The phrase originated on the Northern Line, where the gaps between the curved train platforms at Embankment Station and the train itself were particularly large.
How big are the gaps?
The biggest gaps one needs to mind are at Bank Station on the Central line and at Waterloo Station on the Bakerloo line. Basically, early in the history of Tube-line building the companies had to build their railways beneath public roads, so sharp curves were required at some points. Allegedly, the slightly-off-putting gap at Bank is so large because the tunnel diggers of the time had to swerve a lot to miss the Bank of England's vaults.
