  Still no got enough time to really get back into Xanga

  But I’d better write down my adventures before it all fades into memory, something I tend not to hold onto for that long :/

  After londond it was off to Manchester and Lancashire where another Uncle lives. This time rather than work I was just going up to visit my cousin who i’ve always gotten on well with and since she is having a bit of a rough time at the moment I thought i’d show support.

  So I hopped on a bus and made my way up north.

  I also planned and bought my other tickets that would take me home, but then got an e-mail from my Aunt in Oldham saying it might be not so good for me to stay too long since they were rushed off their feet and although they’d love to have me it wasn’t really a great time.

  I sort of expected this but it was still somewhat annoying that i’d not waited until i knew for sure before ordering the tickets lol

  Anyway I arrived in Manchester, and only once i’d arrived discovered i’d gone to the wrong station and my Uncle was waiting for me half way across the city there was a brief tiring wander about the streets of Manchster and I even managed to ask for directions.

  But we met up and then having missed our train back to his hung about in a bookshop/coffee shop where he rather nicely insisted I buy a book, so since i had no idea what to buy i got The Chrysalids a John Wyndham Book that i Really like

  On a side note, the authors name in full is: John Wyndham Parks Lucas Benyon Harris…:O thats one heck of a name lol

  So we eventually got our train and I was glad to sit down again since I still had a LOT of jars of chutney in my backpack >.> the next two days I think it was I spent at theirs, hanging out in the controlled chaos of a house filled with three somewhat stressed adults and two infants o.O it was lovely and the kids were great to see, but I was glad the time had been cut down since I did feel a bit like an imposition given the current situation.

  My bus tickets of course were useless but ever the gentleman my Uncle bought me a train ticket to my next destination Edinburgh.

  I also wandered round a reservoir with a baby in a pram and went with my cousin to get her other kid injected :S but he actually didn’t complain at all really which was cool.

  I didn’t take that many pics in Oldham or Manchester this time, but I’ve got one or two on my phone i might post later on.
