Tanyard Maidstone

Hello!

On my seemingly never ending things-to-do list is this - trial blog. Will travelpod be the best place for me to blog my up coming South American travels or will I not quite get my head around it. At the moment I'm not convinced. How do people find me?

PS almost forgot -chickenpox have scabbed over now - inherited mum's immune system so kicked viral butt no problem.

... Velindre hospital we were given a great welcome by the fund raising team, who made us tea, coffee & kindly posed for photographs with me.

Next stop, Bristol via the new Severn bridge.

Thanks to Lyndsey's hard work, we were given another great welcome & supplied with hot drinks and more great photo opportunities with the staff.

I'm now back at ...

... and watched it...it was still very good, but they cut a large portion out! All of the guests and Graham really had a very good time...you can see Graham and Dame Edna really laughing at each other. Anyway, as I said earlier, WE'RE GOING TO LIVERPOOL! So you probably won't hear from me until next week. Hopefully my laundry will dry soon and I'll be able to pack! I suppose I can sleep on the train. ;-) As a reminder, if you want ...

... than anyone else. In reality, that didn't happen. Very few people in Maidstone got tickets. Huge rows erupted. People threatened to kick the barriers down to gain entry. It got messy. However, I got tickets - for the Sunday. The day with less hype and far more talent. Sweeeeet! So the day arrived, and walking down to the park with my trusty midget sidekick, Helen, you could tell that for a weekend at least ...

... here. For a number of reasons things have been emotionally exhausting since I've arrived and I think the trip will help put life back into perspective. It's easy to get swept up in being indulgent and self serving and it's so instantaneously satisfying that it becomes hard to remember what I really value in life. Maybe I'm expecting too much and I know the 10 days will be emotionally exhausting - just the idea of some of the Infieles being ...

... one thing I've learned having spoken to my american classmates about it - is that I DON'T want to go to school in the states. If dudes like Manfred freak them out I am SOOOOO screwed. 6) I'm debating applying to law schools here in the UK. I dig living here so much and the program would take less time than in Canada or the States. Having said that, I'm feeling pretty lazy about applying to EVEN MORE law schools. Also, I think I still wanna do a PhD. I like essay writing ...

I need to start going places so my little pin moves eh!? Anyhoo - quick entry! Things are going well - I'm starting to feel a little pressure regarding school. There's definitely a lot of readings to keep up on. But I seem to be doing well participating in seminars without doing them - even know I can't ride that for long! So friday night I resisted all temptation from every side - the Jaime, Mitch and Holly come to walkabout side, the Christian and thor ...

... a visit to this pictresque little town. It's the largest town in Cambridgeshire and has been an important bridge-head over the River Great Ouse since 1113 when the local priory came into being. I'd had a long day in the saddle and 65 miles left me just over 70 miles short of my first target - London and cold, cold beer!

My last day before London was the toughest so far. I was on the road by 9am and made good time along the winding country roads ...

... be late and just as that started to set in the taxi turned the corner *phew* So off I go to the train station get on my train and away we go. Sat with this pretty girl who didn't talk to until probably a good 2 hours into the ride when we saw some guy with a tattoo on the back of his head, what a good ice breaker haha. So we talk and talk and thank god we did start talking because we get into London and I'm like "ummmm **** I'm not sure where to go, what tube (subway) to get ...
