Birmingham
Friday, August 15th, 2008We were in Birmingham last weekend to see Shona and Simon. On the Saturday the girls went off to do Wedding things while Simon and I went off to the city’s IMAX theater to see the fantastic ‘The Dark Knight’. Unfortunately the cinema was booked out so we had to make do with a trip to the pub and an afternoon of Olympics on the Wii (I am now the official javelin World record holder)
Saturday night we Celebrated Shona and Simons engagement in style at a city bar. Pictures from Shona’s camera can be seen starting here. We had a great night and it was good to see some of the people we met last year at the Lakes and some of their other mates.
Sunday was a lazy day spent browsing the shops, watching Hot Fuzz and rounded off with a Chinese Buffett dinner.
I’m looking forward to the start of the Premiership season tomorrow. I have 3 fantasy football teams on the go so the pressure is on.
Andrea is running daily (well, almost…) and is gearing up for another week of Olympics couch supporting. She has ordered a Wetsuit which should be with us imminently so the surfing can really take off.
