Food, Work and Shopping

Yes, I know i've been a bit slack with posting here but i managed to spill beer on my laptop so it had to get taken in to get cleaned....but all seems to be working now which is very good.

2 weeks of stuff to update you all on...
We went to Cadbury World (the home of Cadbury chocolate) at Bournville which was pretty interesting as we got to go around the factory and see how all the different types of chocolate are made and the history of the company. We also got plenty of free samples and managed to pick up a bag of chocolate offcuts. The next day we caught the bus through the countryside to Melton Mowbray, which is a town south of Nottingham famous for its Pork Pies and Stilton cheese

Bindy got a job at a recruitment company, recruiting carers to look after people - the company seems pretty disorganised and her work is fairly chaotic, but it gives us more money to spend which is always good.

On Saturday we spent the day in Birmingham, which is one of the largest cities in England. We basically spent the day wondering around the shops and markets and picked up a little xmas tree to go in our apartment (yes i know its early).

We head off to Krakow in Poland on Thursday for a few nights so i'll tell you about that next..... Meanwhile you can check out a couple more photos that i've put up
