Before I start, incase anyone is wondering. the pics, with the exception of VE’s, are in B&W because I thought it was time for something completely different. 😉 OH, and internet issues so really behind on vid uploads…sorry! 🙁 Right, so Paula and I had an easier train travel today. There was still a close/short […]
So today was a long day on two trains. Funny thing was, the first one was only about 2 hours ride but then when getting off, a friend who was on the train like Paula and I had a ticket showing we were to get the next train from platform 3 so we rushed over…only […]
So before heading to Brussels and meeting up with Paula and Elisa, I had a free day in Paris. I had booked a hop on/off bus tour thinking I could get a good feel for the city that way but once I got on and started around, I realized trying to ‘see’ Paris in a […]
Ah…Paris…I’ve never been so though I was quite nervous about not knowing French, I was also really excited to see The Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame etc! 😀 AND…it was actually sunny and nice when I arrived so I wandered around and had lunch outside at a cafe while I waited for check in time at […]
So…Europe….quite different than the UK that’s for sure. Different languages, trains vs. driving etc but an adventure awaits me thinks. 😀 It took a bit longer and one extra train transfer to get to Utrecht and sadly, when I arrived, the rainy weather followed me (I should say, the last 24 hours in Liverpool really […]
Well, I woke up knowing that the girls and I had gone to our last gig together because Paula wasn’t going to be at the gig tonight due to having to be at work the next day and Steph was going home after this one so, really, our trio had come to an end already. […]
So today had a moment of culture on the way to Gateshead because we stopped at Hadrians Wall. Paula made a mention and Steph was all “ooo, can we go?” I was blogging so hadn’t see what they were talking about but when Steph said it again I was totally game as I had heard […]
So another gig that the girls and I were coming to more refreshed as we had a day off prior. Helen was nice enough to show me a few bits of Manchester (before it started raining), we had a nice breakfast and then killed time in the hotel lobby, all while Paula and Steph were […]
So I’d never been to Manchester before and I was looking forward to wandering around a bit the next morning but today, it was a case of getting to the hotel, checking in, and then heading out for some food. But not before nearly getting killed…twice! OMG, first it was the cab ride from hell. […]
It was a very short ride (35 minutes) to Leeds from Sheffield and before I knew it, we were checked into our hotel and heading out to grab some lunch. The nice warm and sunny weather had vanished the day prior to rain and wind…and that’s what today was also…bummer 🙁 I’ve never been to […]
