Greenbelt and other stuff!
Hey All!
Well, tomorrow I am off to Greenbelt! Yes, I know it doesn't start 'till Friday, but Dad is working so we must be there early. I am taking with me my best mate Giggles! And we're going to have a whale of a time! Seriously. I can't wait. I really want to see Milton Jones, if only to gloat at my friends. I'm so nice. I'm also looking forward to seeing what 'The Scatter Rats' are like. They look cool. Would love to also visit the Fairy Love tent. Oh there is so much to do! Is going to be an amazing time!
Well, I miss all they guys up at Cock O' The North. It fails. Was so fun up there! Roll on October. Seriously. They all went to Wendy House last night. I am rather jealous. All had a wonderful time though, which is good. One of the guys there, SamuraiPirate, recommended I listen to some Nightwish, which I am eternally grateful too, Nightwish are amazing. Am currently debating with myself who I prefer though Tarja or the new singer ( I can't remember her name ) They are good! Definite thumbs up!
Anyway, Sleepy Hollow calls me, talk later people x

The Holiday!
Hey All!
Well, sorry for not posing recently, have been off on my travels. We've been to the New Forest ( bleugh, not the best holiday we've had..... ) and to Hipperholme ( Near Halifax, Yorkshire ) ( We got back 3am this morning ¬_¬ ).
Well, The New Forest. I'm not one for camping. Usually I hate it. And, I do't really enjoy the site we were on either. But. hey ho, you get on with it. The week was fine until my 3year old sister was kicked by a horse. She was okay, but that put an end to feeding the wild pones. As you can imagine. I fell, and cut my hip open ( not too deeply, but then, being skinny as I am, there isn't much to cut.) That's almost healed now.
To be fair the holiday wasn't "Bad" I just didn't enjoy it as much as I could have. And after being in Hipperholme, well, I'd rather have skipped holiday one, and gone straight to holiday two.
Hipperholme. Wow, what an amazing week. That was by far one of the best holidays I have ever been on, if not the best. We were camping in a field behind the Halifax Steam Brewery's Bar Tap. (http://www.aswiftone.com/2008/03/halifax-steam-brewing-co.html a review of the place) The camp-site was immaculate, and although the weather could have been nicer setting up, the sun shone for us throughout the week. We spent most nights at Cock O' The North, not for the beer ( although I'm told it is very nice ) but for the company there. Mr E, The owner/brewer/ general mad man of the place welcomed up with open arms ( quite literally ) and made us part of the family. From there on, I personally met around 6 of the staff ( Just thinking up nicknames for them ) and to be honest. I want to go back, it was so amazing there. The Barman who served us on the first night is ended up drinking with us ( Well, those of us allowed to drink ) after hours, and the rest of the week followed suit. Although Cock O' The North shuts officially at 11, I don't think we left before midnight once. During this time we got to know the people there. I miss them already to a certain extent. They are smart people, and really good conversation. As I said earlier, I can't wait to see them all again. Truly. Bring on October!!!!
Coming home from Yorkshire however was a complete farce. The car broke down. Big deal yeah? Well, we ended up waiting nearly 2 hours for the breakdown people to turn up. Not good with a 3 year old and a 2 year old to look after. Breakdown also refused to take all 7 of us, leaving my Dad to find his own way home from the middle of the M1. When they finally got here, The messed around for 20 minutes then towed us to Meadow Hill Shopping Centre Car Park and left us there. Thankfully Dad's friend lived not far away and managed to fix the problem, and 6 hours later, we were on our way again. And at 3am we were home. Finally.
Well, after this extensive post, my typing fingers are tired. So I shall bid you a fond farewell, until next time x
