So far I haven't had cabin fever that much, but i can feel my boyfriend started to get a bit antsy (and he's only been here 2 months ;)) - he's mentioned it a couple of times that it would be great if we could meet more people - but how on earth do you go round doing THAT in this big city?<br /><br />HMM!
