Day trip to the Science Museum. It was absolutely heaving :stunned: Still, nice day out and not as bad a the queues for the Natural History Museum!
 
That's what happens when you do anything like that during half-term MK. It's why I don't go to the cinema during half term. Holidays are exceptions, mainly because my birthday tradition is a film and lunch out and my birthday's at the start of the summer holidays.

Have to entertain the young 'un mate!
 
Of course. Personally, I'd be bitching on the prices of stuff like that. Last I checked, a bottle of Coke in the National History cost £2.50. That's double what it costs in my local Tesco!

Yer, learnt from past mistakes. Took some sarnies and bits, so just paid £8 for a tea, coffee and fruit juice. Cheap. :nope:
 
Sadly, that is. For London.

Probably spent at least a grand or more on transport in three years living there. Please God let Oyster cards go national. It's so much bloody easier.

Actually, scratch that, spent second year getting taxis back from the Asda with the shopping and that was £25 a pop so probably closer to 2 grand.
 
Bumped into (literally) Carles Puigdemont, the Catalan president and one of the leaders of the independence movement on my way to work. His bodyguards clearly thought I was a secret assassin sent from Madrid who was intent on doing as much harm as possible.

Facebook has reminded me that we went to the NHM exactly a year ago. The horror!

Great museum of course and we'll be back, but probably in the longer school holidays rather than half term.

Bumped into the bespectacled one where exactly? (Obviously not in Gerona).:winking:

So cheaper than running a car.

And why didn't you get your shopping delivered for the fraction of a cost of a taxi?
 
Because we were students and only one of us didn't drink/smoke/do drugs/any combination of the above. It took us a year to realise there was an Aldi five hundred yards further up the road!

Not what I'd expect from the smartest person in Gloucestershire if I'm being perfectly honest.
 
Have you ever been to Gloucestershire? If you have, you'd know it's full of idiotic farmers, imbecillic tossers, and downright moronic everything else. Newborn babies from Canvey Island are smarter than your average person from this rot of a **** hole.

(And it didn't take me long to realise I could do my own shopping at the Nissa or the One-Stop every week. Which were five hundred yards up the road and thus an easy walk away. Even with a week's worth of shopping. Which, when one lives on pizza, pasta, rice, noodles and sweetcorn, is bloody simple to carry).

Aaaah Sonic !!!... if only we knew then, what we know now !!


You could have been a true Shrimperzone legend as a stoned student.... wearing your Southend United Shirt, running down from the crowd to the stage with your carrier bag on "Ready, Steady, Cook" to meet with Ainsley Harriott !! :smile:
