WEEKEND TRIP: WALES

Crowded at the Wirral show

I'll do it a bit different the coming blog posts. This blog is mostly about my adventures during my exchange year, but I haven't been very good at keeping the blog up-to-date. No wonder really, 'cause there's been a lot of things going on, but now - and in the coming weeks, I'll have more time to write down all the things I've been able to do.

I always write down everything I do on my iPod Touch, but I've managed to lose my charging cable, so I cannot reach my memoires for the time being. Therefore I have no recollection ("ish") of what I've been up to the past 3-4 weeks.

My remedy for this is to do inverted blogging: I'll start with the present and go backwords in time - until everything has been told and I can return to the normal way. Clever - here we go:

WEEKEND TRIP TO WALES
It was all planned a few months ago when I figured I could visit Tom in Wales without spending too much money. I left straight after work last Friday (July 10th).

Already the same night we headed to the local pub, Clayton Arms where I got to try Bitter ale. Very tasty indeed. I even won over Tom's brother George in Pool (shame on George).

Saturday morning, Tom and I went to Moss Valley golf course and a round of golf. Neither of us have played for more than a year, something the number of balls heading for the woods clearly showed. It's amazing how we managed to get through all 18 holes without running out of balls. The definite highpoint of the day was when Tom pithed in a fantastic Eagle from about 45 meters (Par 4)!

When we got home we played some Guitar Hero on the Xbox 360 - my favourite game, I think. Still can play Muse's Knights of Cydonia on Hard :D

Tom's 21st birthday with food, drinks and good friends!

It was Tom's birthday and it was celebrated with lots of good food and drinks and ended in the early hours of Sunday!

Sunday we had a chill morning, and then I joined the Cheesbrough family to the Wirral Show, a huge event with stands, funfare, airshows and much more!

Crazy Motocross show!

FUN!

Back home again we had a good meal before we ate the fancy fruit cake Tom's grandmum had made for him!

It was time to go, a relaxing weekend was over before it ever started. Thank you for a great time Tom :D
