Tiring but so goooood

A lot happened during this weekend.


Friday (7/10):
Not a very busy day at work. A colleague is going to New York for work for few weeks, so went to the Larrik (pub near office) to have a drink. It meant to be a quick one as I was supposed to go to bed early. But it turned out that we finished at 11:30pm, then kebab.
So got home at 1am, then this colleague came to my flat and said he had missed his last train.. haha.


Saturday (8/10):
This also means that I only had 4 hours of sleep, before I went to Paddington to pick my friend up from Heathrow Express. We then got straight back to my flat, left the luggage, and off again to Marble Arch to meet the other two (KC + HK), and off we went to our road trip. And where to? OLD TRAFFORD in bloody MANCHESTER!!!

England vs Austria, kick off at 4pm, left Marble Arch at 10am, on a Ford Focus 1.6L.

HK drove us all the way to there, stopping once in a service near Birmingham, congestion started after Birmingham, as people all heading to Manchester. We parked the car at about 3:10pm at a temporary car park near the stadium.

And...






The match was bad. England won from a penalty, taken by Lampard, and Beckham got sent off, and Campbell and Gerrard got injured. But luckily we came to this match, not Wednesday's.

We then headed to Manchester City centre for dinner, had some Thai. This is the second time I come to this city. And still remember the first time, sweet half term trip with my bobo, almost 5.5 years ago.

Then we drove down. Sing drove the first half, to a service near Birmingham (again), and then I finished it off, all the way to my flat. Thank HK and KC for driving the car back, and returning it, and everything :-)


My first road trip with friends, and it was goooood.
