#5 end of may beg june cont.

So to write even more! I havent been up to too much the past few weeks really.... i took Spencer to get a needle the other day and he was a VERY brave boy! He barly cried.... but that could be because i popped a biscuit in his mouth immediatly after.

Also it has been very warm and sunny out latly!! its been wonderful! I think i even have a bit of a tan on my arms..... tho my legs are having a bit of trouble..... it might be time to hit the salon LOL...

I also went to Whitley last weekend to visit Steph! It was my first train ride ever and let me tell you trains are VERY confusing.... once you work out were you need to go and what platforms, etc and where to change trains if necessary then you can enjoy the nice air conditioned and even comfy seating. I studied my course most of the way there (its a two hour trip) and ate loads of chocolate covered raisens. The washrooms were SO cool! haha sounds rediculas saying that but really they were great! You press a button and the door opens, and it kinda slides into the wall and its like a half circle, then you press another button to close the door, and then one more to lock it..... very high tech!! also the soap and water and hand dryer are all motion detected too. Steph and greg met me at Swanwick station in perfect timing.... and then we had a LONG treck back to the hotel were they work. Its like a 25min walk... it took FOREVER.... but we did make it.... that night we went to the pub up the road... which closed at like 11.. SO early! esspecially cause it was the only pub in the whole town! ... we went up to Tescos and got more liquor (I got a 40 of Malibu... its the same price here as a 26) I learned how to play texas holdem.. i was pretty good but in the end just bet it all..... and lost haha!

The next day we went to starbucks for lunch and then looked around the french market... we also played badminton and then went to the duck pond.... the duck pond was really really cool... it was in the middle of a buissness centre and in the first section there was only one swan and no other bird... that swan was verry mean! There were warning signs up about him and he came towards you as if he was going to attack you! There were baby ducks (see pictures on facebook) and they were ADORABLE i wish i could have held them they were so precious looking. There were loads of ducks EVERYWHERE and swans too..... there were baby swans and i even fed one of the swans oout of my hands so that was really neat! I did get a photo of that too so thats good. There were also swans right up beside the buildings (shadding themselfs from the sun) though it did look as if they were 'window shopping'

When we got back we relaxxed for a while and then made tacos for dinner. They were delicious! We went out to South hampton that night so while getting ready we had a few predrinks and then once we were feeling pretty good we headed up to the pub to meet the others and cab to South hampton. Once we got to South Hampton we met up with some more people and went to a club called Orange.... the places was SO over crowded so we left and kind of split up... We (me, Steph, Greg, & Dale, and i think some otehrs went to Junk.... it was okay... deffinatly less crowded. Greg ended up getting kicked out for a reason we are yet to discouver.... so we left a bit earlier then general but it was deff a great night! we went home and drank some more. I ended up going to sleep around 530am ish... So it was not bad. The next day i woke up late and got ready slowly and packed up and then walked to the train station... Steph had to goto wwork. I had to wait at the train station for about 40min but after a long day of trains and busses i finally made it home! I had a hot bubble bath and deff. did not unpack (actually I just unpacked yesterday.... waited about 4 days LOL)


This week:

On monday i took Spencer up to the Angel and he went to the park on the slide, and swings, and this spining thing too! We played there for over an hour. That night i met up with Chris and we went for a VERY VERY long walk all around London basically here are some key spots we went to; Oxford street - Piccidilly circus - Trafaglar Square - Parliment square - Along the water in fron of the London eye -Along the water farther to the next bridge - Soho - Leciester square - new oxford street....
if you were to put that all onto a map you would see that it was a far distance!!! I took a few more pictures (will be posted later.... i cant update them ALL at once then you wouldnt have n e thing to look forward to!)
The Tuesday i met Julz for Lunch with Spencer at Garfunkles... we both had all you can eat salad bar. it was a really good salad bar i deff. enjoyed it... After me and Spencer went for a longg lonng (hour walk) walk we hopped on the bus and headed home... i didnt do much that night tho i did find out were to get rollerblades (which today i ordered from Tesco's)
Yesterday me and Spencer had a veggie day and didnt leave the house... the weather couldnt make up its mind... kinda like today so we stayed in... Me and Sandra watched the UK Apprentice finalee.... it was really good! The guy (Leigh) who i wanted to win.. did win! I was very happy about that! Then i went to bed.....

Today... well now the my blog is all caught up... i hope i can stay caught up!!! Me and Spencer havnt gone out yet... he got woken up rreally early by the lawn mowers outside so he has been very tired all day.... hes been sleeping now for over an hour.... giving me a chance to update this!
