Bristol...




well, I did end up getting away... to Bristol. Had a nice overnight.

asked Michaelmichael what to do and spent Thursday walking around in the pouring rain. I forgot to take raincoat and umbrella (stupid stupid, but i packed at 6:30 in the morning before i left). so had to buy an umbrella. I started with a crepe and coffee and then explore the town, walking to nearby Clifton and the famous suspension bridge, to Abbot's leigh and then wandered some shops in Bristol. Very good, very good. Then went back to Bristol Backpackers where i met a girl from perth and a canadian boy and went out on the town with them.

went to one pub and had dinner where some spanish friends from the backpackers joined us. we then ended up in the walkabout (but of course!!!) to sing the night away. We got kicked out of there at closing when we went to the dungeon of the backpackers to sing songs (i heard some spanish ones too) and then at 4:00am, called it a night. was very fun, my whole 3 drinks and all (big night.. ha)

and today i went outside to explore, and ended up seeing one of my new spanish friends and went and had breakkie with him at a cafe. We went to some markets where i bought some beef and some lamb sausages!! mmmmmm, and then spent the day helping them write job applications. Had to leave at 15:45 to catch the bus which was 1/2 hr late and then delayed, so didn't get into london till 20:00. very tired, but hey, had some nice sausages, mash and cabbage for dinner just like my pop used to make.

and now am home. was going to go to Brighton tomorrow with Mathieu (old) but will probably just bum around at home and see some sights of London. maybe go to the Dali exhibition.

well, that's all for the moment, just thought i would tell you all about my new spanish friends, yay.


love youse all
