lazy day!

September 29, 2007 - Manchester, United Kingdom

Well day one in Manchester is turning out to be the only day. We are outta here! There isn’t much to do, and there are no tours running, so we are going to head to Liverpool tomorrow. We spent the day in town, having a wander around, saw a movie, just chilled out really. Ursh headed back to the hotel a little early and I just did a bit of ‘warm clothes’ shopping. The one jumper and 2 long sleeves tops I bought are now not enough, considering EVERY single day here is freezing cold. I thought we were going to have warm weather, considering its summer/autumn! Hmmm! I rang my cousin, who only bought more lovely news on how cold it was going to be in Dublin on the weekend ….great! Oh, that’s if I get to Dublin, my own cousin spelt my name wrong!!! How many times do I have to go over this…I before E except after C!!! Haha! So anyway, I bought a jacket and 2 tops, then decided to splurge and get my hair colored. Oh how ive missed the luxury of a decent hairdresser and a good hair dryer! 50 quid later though =( I even had to repeat my little I before E except are C spiel at the hairdresser! One of the guys in the shop asked me what my name was, and then asked me to spell it. So of course, I did….and then he was like….ohhhh like a Geisha?? NO…..I before E except after C…N I E….haha! He didn’t appreciate the English lesson I don’t think…being ENGLISH and all! Hahaha! I headed back on the tram/train (weirdest thing iver ever seen). We started off on train tracks, and then all of a sudden…poof….where in the middle of the road! WEIRD! Odd little brits!
