Missing home

After the excitement of the Old Trafford tour yesterday, last night was spent settled in at Sam's house with his family. We had a great meal together, all sharing the table, which made me think a little bit about dinner time at home. There are just a few things that i miss from home, number one of course being friends and family..... number two would definitely be my mothers spaghetti bolognese and number three by far is probably the A.F.L.
Another thing i am starting to miss, surprisingly is working and having a little bit of a routine. I honestly can't wait to begine working in the U.K., not only will it be great to be able to earn a little bit of money, but it will be awesome to be able to get into the rhythm of life again and regain some normality after what has already been almost 2 months of unemployment and travel.
I am planning on living in Maidstone, Kent, where i spent the most part of my first three weeks in England. Good news is after applying for work at two of the busy bars there, i was able to organise two job interviews for later next month once my travels have come to an end through europe!
This is a little bit of a relief, i certainly will not find any troubles getting work in Maidstone, or anywhere in England for that matter.
The picture attached to this blog is one I took yesterday of the Manchester Eye, which is a large ferris wheel in the city centre, i will quote sam here, on the description of the attraction: "Like the London Eye, but Shit."
Today i went into Manchester, wandered in circles around the city, looked at a few notable landmarks and statues, found some bars and watched cricket and football with my friend Julia from Adelaide, who has been travelling Europe for a few months, and my mate Mike from Hollingbourne, who i'd only met a couple weeks prior.
Once the soccer match concluded, i met up with Sam in town to go to a night club, Tiger Tiger, which is apparently a very popular night spot on a Monday night. We arrived and there were maybe 20-30 people inside, but seemingly within 15 minutes, the place was absolutely packed, the music was absolutely pumping and the drinks were flowing.... that was until the fire alarm went of and forced all of about 500 people outside onto the footpath until the firemen arrived.
We went back in once the place was sorted out, hung around for a short while and then went home.
So thats it from me, definitely time for bed. See You
