I should stop living off my radiator

I mean I have a wardrobe with a medium sized selection of trousers and tops, so why do I insist on only wearing those clothes that on my clothes horse?  I really need to expand the range where Iget my clothes from.

Hi Jo

Good morning Jo

I hope you don't need to click to read me.

But just wanted to say hi.

Good to see you back. Are you getting used to not having anything to do or anywhere to go? What's your plans now?

What's changed here since you've been gone?

Well I moved to live and work in a pub in a little village just outside Nottingham. I learnt to drive. Got a car. A girl played me. (I've gotten over her). I went to Kings of Leon (flickr) with the ever awesome and newly house bound Sammy. I went to Blackpool with some new friends, where I almost fell in love with a beautiful deaf girl, missed out on going up the Blackpool Tower, hung out with a hen party and played mini golf, alone. (I plan to go back to Blackpool soon to try and get up the Tower). I watched Toy Story 3 (and erm, didn't cry.....) and Inception (rubbish).

And this week I plan on get new wheels...literally and some new geeky-fied glasses. So it's all fast paced here :-)

Blackpool Rocks!

So on Friday I went to Blackpool for a day and night out. Unfortunately both Friday and Saturday the Tower was closed due to strong winds so a lot of my photos are OF the Tower.

I did go on a ferris wheel though :-)

I also had a fun night out in Blackpool. And what can I say about Blackpools night life? I found it very interesting. There were many hen/stag parties there for a start. LOTS of old people, like nan age. They must of been going to Blackpool for over half their lives for holidays and continue to do so. It's very strange vibe in some bars.

Although there were some highlights, like playing crazy golf on my own and writing at the bottom of the score card under 'winner'; "not me," the cute deaf girl that I was too scared to approach and the random hen party that kept taking photographs of me. I'm just waiting for my facebook friend request so I can see how these photos turned out.

But if you've never been to Blackpool before it's worth a visit. There is plenty to do. And even more to make you cringe. But you'll come back with a few stories and wanting to go back....especially if the Tower is closed.

I will be back Blackpool!

There's nature in those hills

There's so much more nature around here. I love it.

I have a new flat mate. I'm sure in a few months I'll have a few extra and will continually be woken by hungry baby birds

And I often find myself in cow jams.

You don't get this in Runcorn.

Call the ....... coast guard?

I spotted this article on the front page of the local paper.

Who should you call in this case; the police or the coast guard?

A Tale of the Rich and the Poor

So I've not really been in to Nottingham since moving here. I'm not too sure why that is, especially since I "have car, will travel."

I was just rummaging around on Google Maps for nice parks, galleries, places to visit when I spotted The Tales of Robin Hood.

This sounded like just the place I should visit. Nottingham. Robin Hood. It goes without thinking.

It turns out though that Robin Hood, and his "Tales of," was robbed by the rich to give to the richer.

At least there is a nice park.

Anyone been to or live in Nottingham. Any good ideas for places to visit for day's out or early evening drinks?
